THINKING
INSIDE THE BOX
The requirement for low cost, light weight, compact and portable laboratory
equipment is becoming more commonplace in industry. In the fields of microwave
test and measurement, customers are further demanding complete, fully functional
and certified systems that meet industrial standards. To provide customers with
this complete solution, Emblation Microwave has developed the ISYS245
microwave generator.
This new model uses state of art technology to
produce a highly efficient 2.45GHz microwave
system capable of generating variable power in
excess of 110W at 2.45GHz with superior reflection
measurement capability and temperature stability.
The ISYS245 has been designed with an easy to
use interface with the capability of being operated
as a standalone system or externally controlled
via PC and/or microwave signal generator.

HIGH POWER MICROWAVE GENERATOR

technology operating in class A/B mode to generate microwave
power in excess of 100W CW when used in the internally
regulated standalone mode - see Fig.1.
In this mode and also [swept] mode, the output power can
be varied in 5W increments from 0-110W using pulse width
modulation (PWM) techniques with power stability maintained
within 5% of the set value.
ADVANCED REFLECTION MEASUREMENT
SYSTEM
The ISYS245
measurement mode of operation.
When used in this [swept] mode, the system has the capability
the input match of the device under test is non-optimal. As an
example, for a device with an input match of -12dB connected
to the system at a distance in excess of 1m, an improvement of
approximately 75% in measurement error is easily achievable
thereby reducing the overall uncertainty in the measurement.
This mode of operation is particularly useful for applications that
material properties or relaying test progress and safety.
APPLICATIONS
The use of microwave technology in communication,
industrial and laboratory applications is constantly advancing
with high power capability becoming a necessity.
HIGH POWER MICROWAVE AMPLIFIER
The ISYS245
used in [external source] mode where a small signal gain of
operates without any internal power regulation, allowing the
user to have full control of the output power levels.
Potential applications for the ISYS245 include:
microwave measurement - material analysis
(moisture), test & measurement, University research
(hyperthermia/ablation, antenna measurements,
wireless communication research).
microwave chemistry - organic chemistry,
liquid phase reactions, intercalation reactions,
organo-metallic chemistry, polymer chemistry,
solid-state chemistry.
manufacturing - polymer curing, material heating
and drying, ceramics testing, plasma discharge
devices for UV curing, epoxy adhesive curing.
food science - meat tempering and curing, material
analysis (moisture, salinity, density).
SUPERIOR COOLING
The use of higher operating voltages on the GaN on SiC
semiconductors in the ISYS245 system design helps reduce
the drain current and the resultant Joule effect losses.

thermal loss requiring reduced thermal management see
Fig 2. The ISYS245
implementation of a novel, thermal cooler solution to dissipate
operating at full power at below 55 degrees Celsius.
The cooling system employed is very compact with superior
thermal capacity per unit volume allowing the overall system
w
management system.
EXTERNAL CONTROL
The external communication is via a simple parallel data
communication interface, when used in [external I/O] mode.
This is supplied as standard.
The ISYS245 also has full control and data logging capability for
connecting to a PC via an optional USB interface module. All
communication software will be provided with the USB module.
