Mini TWTs Brochure

Traveling Wave Tubes MiniatureL-3 Electron Devices has a complete line of mini tubes, covering multi-octave bandwidths over the frequency range of 2 to 46 GHz with output powers of up to 150 Watts. The tubes have multi-stage collectors for high efficiency, are of rugged thermal design and offer long life through superior gun optics and beam magnetics.

Electron Devices’ mini tubes are used in ECM systems for the U.S. and foreign Navys and are also used in airborne decoy systems in Europe as well as the IDECM system for the USAF. A special line of low gain, high efficiency Vacuum Power Booster (VPB) tubes was developed for use in our line of Microwave Power modules (MPM’s).
