The design and development of a tetrode amplifier control System
The high power broadband RF transmitter is an important component of ion cyclotron frequency range (ICRF) system, and tetrode amplifier is one of its important components. It is particularly important to study the efficiency and service life of tetrode amplifiers. This article creatively provides an anode voltage control system based on SOC FPGA core, using AD9257 chip for voltage and current sensing, providing fast adjustment, response, and fast shutdown protection for tetrode amplifiers. The response speed of the control system and the efficiency of the tetrode amplifier under different anode voltages were tested, providing reliable design and ideas for the research of tetrode amplifier control.
