The VTS-5755 pulsed-coupled cavity TWT covers 2.7 GHz to 3.1 GHz with 60 kW peak output power,
up to 2.4% duty cycle. This device has a non-intercepting grid pulsed and single stage depressed collector to
achieve 50 dB gain. This device is capable of parallel operation from a common HV power supply, phase
tracking is better than +/- 20 degrees. The long life CD coated cathode is capable of pulse width to 50 micro
seconds in this PPM focused, air cooled TWT
