RADIO-FREQUENCY POWER GENERATOR CONFIGURED TO REDUCE ELECTROMAGNETIC EMISSIONS

摘要

Radio frequency (RF) power generator including an outer enclosure having a system cavity. The outer enclosure separates the system cavity from an exterior of the RF power generator. The outer enclosure is configured to reduce leakage of the electromagnetic radiation into the exterior. The RF power generator also includes a feedthrough assembly comprising a coaxial line configured to receive electric power generated by an RF amplification system. The coaxial line is positioned within the system cavity and has inner and outer conductors. The feedthrough assembly includes a connector shield that forms a feedthrough to the exterior of the RF power generator. The connector shield is electrically coupled to the outer conductor of the coaxial line and integrated with the outer enclosure to reduce leakage of electromagnetic radiation into the exterior.
