4. Setup
Follow these steps to set up your FeelTech Signal Power Amplifier:
- Power Connection: Connect the provided DC 15V power adapter to the power input port on the rear panel of the amplifier. Ensure the power switch is in the OFF position before connecting.
- Signal Input: Use the BNC-BNC cable to connect your DDS function signal generator's output to the 'IN' BNC connector on the amplifier's rear panel.
- Signal Output: Connect your load or measurement device to the 'OUT' BNC connector using an appropriate BNC cable.
- Grounding: If necessary, connect the ground terminal to a suitable ground point.
- Initial Power-On: Once all connections are secure, switch the power toggle to the 'ON' position. The power indicator light should illuminate.

5. Operation
After successful setup, you can begin operating the amplifier:
- Power On: Ensure the amplifier is connected to power and your signal generator. Flip the power switch to 'ON'.
- Gain Selection: The amplifier offers fixed magnification modes of X2 and X4. Select the desired gain using the switch on the device, typically located near the input. Refer to the specific model for exact switch location.
- Signal Input: Generate the desired waveform from your DDS function generator. The amplifier is compatible with various waveforms including sine, square, pulse, sawtooth, triangle, ECG, and noise waves.
- Monitoring Output: Observe the amplified signal on your connected load or measurement device (e.g., oscilloscope). Adjust the input signal amplitude from your generator as needed, ensuring it does not exceed the amplifier's input amplitude range (≤14Vp-p).
- Power Off: When finished, switch the power toggle to 'OFF' and disconnect the power supply.
6. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your amplifier, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior of the device. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
- Storage: Store the amplifier in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and corrosive environments when not in use.
- Ventilation: Ensure the heatsink fins are free from dust and obstructions to maintain proper airflow and prevent overheating.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your amplifier, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
- No Power:
- Check if the power cable is securely connected to both the amplifier and the power outlet.
- Verify that the power switch is in the 'ON' position.
- Ensure the power adapter is functioning correctly and providing DC 15V.
- No Output Signal:
- Confirm that the input signal generator is producing a signal and is correctly connected to the 'IN' port.
- Check the connection from the 'OUT' port to your measurement device or load.
- Ensure the input signal amplitude is within the specified range (≤14Vp-p).
- Distorted Output:
- Reduce the input signal amplitude from your generator. The amplifier has a maximum output voltage of 28V (±14V).
- Verify that the load impedance is appropriate (≥4Ω).
- Check if the input signal frequency exceeds the maximum amplified frequency for your specific model (e.g., 1MHz for FYA2010).
- Overheating:
- Ensure the device has adequate ventilation and that the heatsink fins are not obstructed.
- Reduce the operating time or the load if continuous high power output is causing excessive heat.
