converter, the AMC1301 prevents noise currents on a high
common-mode voltage line from entering the local ground
and interfering with or damaging sensitive circuitry.
The AMC1301 joins TI’s broad isolation portfolio which
combines highest isolation and performance for next-
generation industrial and automotive systems that demand
the highest voltages, reliability, immunity and performance.

The next level in operating cost savings – the
new high-power transmitter from Rohde &
Schwarz
The R&S THU9evo UHF transmitter from Rohde & Schwarz
represents the next level of development for the company’s
successful family of high-power transmitters. The new
transmitter comes with further improvements in both energy
efficiency and power density, allowing network operators
to achieve even greater operating cost savings. The R&S
THU9evo delivers maximum energy savings even during
channel changes or when adjusting the output power. The
intelligent R&S Efficiency Optimization feature automatically
provides the most economical operation possible for every
operating scenario.
Rohde & Schwarz is committed to making network
operatorsʹ lives easier. Over the years, the company has
incorporated innovative ideas and concepts into transmitter
development, and the new R&S THU9evo liquid-cooled
UHF high-power transmitter represents the next step
toward minimizing operating costs. Rohde & Schwarz was
able to leverage its many years of experience in Doherty
technology, which is the key to the new transmitter’s
improved efficiency: up to 40 percent for COFDM standards
and up to 43 percent for ATSC. The result is a reduction in
energy consumption, which in turn lowers network operator
costs. The transmitter delivers output powers from 1.5 kW
to 96.5 kW for COFDM and from 1.65 kW to 106 kW for
ATSC. At 17.4 kW (COFDM) and 19 kW (ATSC) per rack,
it offers the highest power density on the market, which
translates into enormous space savings.
The new R&S Efficiency Optimization feature minimizes
energy costs for all types of operating scenarios. This
feature proves its worth especially when adjusting output
power or during channel changes. An intelligent algorithm,
deployed at the press of a button or adaptively, optimizes
amplifier parameters so that the transmitter achieves
maximum energy efficiency at all times, resulting in the
most economical system operation for every scenario.
The new R&S PHU903 high-power amplifier is the key
to the excellent system efficiency. Unmatched by any
other amplifier on the market, the R&S PHU903 provides
maximum efficiency, combined with the capability to operate
across the entire UHF range without any modifications. This
is made possible by the R&S Multiband Doherty technology,
which has been even further improved by Rohde &
Schwarz. This technology ensures that network operators
are optimally prepared for 700 MHz spectrum clearance
and reallocation.
The new transmitter carries forward all of the proven
strengths of the market-leading R&S THU9 platform. The
R&S THU9evo retains the successful and proven R&S
MultiTX concept along with the R&S Tx9 generation’s
intuitive GUI, which is closely aligned with user requirements
and work habits.
The R&S THU9evo liquid-cooled UHF high-power
transmitter is now available from Rohde & Schwarz.
