Talking about more interesting aspects of amps, I was wondering if anyone knows of a single chip microprocessor or pic that has 4 or 8 A/D converters in the chip that can monitor 4 input simultaneous

Absolutely agreed, Dave. For microprocessor coding using integers, there is an easier algorithm that leaves out the square root (and makes it compute WAY faster): ((Forward A/D + Reflected A/D) * 100

SWR varies extremely rapidly when something in the transmission-line-antenna system arcs over. In a high-power radar that I once used, "SWR" sensing was able to shut off the PA within one microsecond

Hi Steve, The Microchip PIC 16C7X series approaches that requirement. They can do 8 bit A/D conversions in 2 uS, which should be sufficiently close to simultaneous for a SWR meter application. 73, Ma

Hi Bruce, like you say with a high swr the forward power increases along with the reflected power so the easiest and quickest way to shut down the amp is to monitor the forward power output and trigg

Hi Bill, every time I transmitted into the wrong antenna the forward power on the meter goes higher and the reflected power does the same. I plan to calculate the swr and shut down the amp with a hig

Bill I don't know this for sure but what I have read in the hand books is that when you have a high swr on the line to the antenna the forward power is reflected back from the load and is added to th

Hi Bill, RF power meters traditionally measure voltage across the line and current through the line. Current and voltage are both expressed as a voltage from a low impedance source. The current is r
