2 introduction CBA 3G-100 introduction The CBA 3G-100 is an amplifier capable of supplying 100 W into a 50 ohm load over the frequency range 800 MHz to 3.1 GHz, during the course of EMC tests on electrical equipment. The amplifier is designed with sufficient gain such that it may be used with normal output levels of signal sources.
