Description
The Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) of the National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center (NSRRC) in Taiwan has integrated Solid-State Power Amplifiers (SSPAs) into routine operations since 2023, supporting a stored beam current of 500 mA. In response to the phasing out of Ampleon's BLF578 and the growing demand for improved energy efficiency, a new SSPA was developed based on the existing module configuration, utilizing the BLF978P as an interim solution. This approach serves as a bridge while the development of the next-generation SSPA, employing GaN transistors, is still underway. Both SSPA configurations, with and without circulators, were explored during development. This paper presents the performance of the prototypes and the implementation details.
