plasma
ASP OPERATION
An accurate broadband power meter senses
the power transfer from the power amplifier to the load.
The Analog Signal Processor
(ASP) monitors this transfer and maintains a safe operating
condition for the AA03LF. Forward Power and Reverse Power
levels (in Watts)
are simultaneously displayed on the front panel in Watts.
The ASP displays and controls all critical parameters of
the amplifier. So
it maintains an accurate, repeatable process control,
and is user friendly as well.
The AG0201HV can be controlled
in one of two ways:
- Manually from the front panel,
and
- Remotely through the optional
analog and digital interface port.
