This application note serves as a comprehensive resource, defining key terms like duty cycle, pulse rate, rise/fall time, and pulse width, as well as discussing pulse on/off ratio, RF delay, jitter, and stability. It provides duty cycle percentage tables and correction factors for calculating average power from peak power. Additionally, it outlines common features of Exodus Solid-State Pulse Amplifiers and illustrates pulse response comparisons between solid-state and TWT amplifier designs.
