Established in 1980, Applied Systems Engineering, Inc. was founded by engineers with extensive experience in power-supply design for all types of microwave tubes. The company specializes in new amplifier/transmitter and sub-system design and development.
Its products include a significant variety of pulse and CW TWT and klystron amplifiers, plus solid-state cathode modulators for magnetrons and CFAs across many power levels — assembled in-house across engineering, machine shop, PCB assembly, environmental test chambers and a full test laboratory.
ASE has developed very-high-efficiency (>90%) HVPS and modulator designs to operate pulsed and CW tubes up to 100 kW from 600 MHz to 100 GHz — with an unsurpassed track record across phased-array, side-looking and weather radar, RCS, communications, EMC testing and university laboratories.
IMPO-RF supplies and supports ASE's TWT, klystron, magnetron and CFA amplifier sub-systems. Tell us your band, power and pulse profile, and we'll spec the right transmitter.
