Description

In recent years, the Solid-State Power Amplifier (SSPA) has become a popular RF power source in accelerator applications. Previously, the low output efficiency of solid-state transistors meant that most RF power sources in accelerators relied primarily on klystron equipment. However, with advancements in transistor technology, solid-state amplifiers can now achieve output levels in the hundreds of watts. They offer numerous advantages, including lower costs, reduced losses, longer lifespan, lower operating voltages, and easier maintenance. As a result, their practical applicability is steadily increasing and is no longer limited to experimental stages. This article mainly introduces the water cooling system, including the front-end manifold branch connected to four 80 kW towers and each SSPA module.
