The X-POWER is a Class-E high power amplifier delivering 94% efficiency across a power range of 5W to 5kW and frequency range of 100Hz to 1MHz. Using Zero Current Switching, the X-POWER operates at low resonant temperatures with high reliability — at half the volume and half the component count of Class-D equivalents.

Benefits

94% efficiency

Zero Current Switching delivers 95% efficiency across the full power and frequency range, minimising heat loss and extending platform operational life.
