Abstract :
The inductive output tube, or IOT, has long been established as the amplifier of choice for UHF television broadcast. IOTs are also employed in an increasing number of accelerator applications. For example, L-3 has recently provided several IOTs, optimized for accelerator use, to the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. Many of these accelerator projects have power and frequency requirements beyond the conventional IOT parameter regime. In particular, there have been a number of accelerator designs proposed utilizing the superconducting 1.3 GHz cavity developed at DESY
