Abstract :
In this paper, we present summaries of our work in developing solid-state components for four radar transmitter modulator upgrades. While each transmitter is uniquely specified, the modulator upgrades share the common approach of replacing vacuum tube switches with reliable, flexible high voltage solid-state technology.
