Here our 1H amplifier of NMR spectrometer is damaged twice for long time or high power RF irradiation. Why the duty cycle is important for amplifier or probe?If the damage happens to amplifier, which part of it is broken?
edit: The type of our spectrometer is Varian InfinityPlus for solids bought in 2003. I have no idea about the sort of amplifiers, just know the amplifier is for power output. Someone used about 80kHz 1H power for 1H decoupling during 100-200ms acquisition. The efficiency of the amplifier output droped gradually. The efficiency of it reduced to one-third at one time. After an interruption of power supply, the amplifier is found no power output any more. Another event is that the electric capacity and resistance of the proton amplifier are burnt suddenly.
Thanks!

[Question from NMRWiki Q&A forum] How do you build an NMR power amplifier?
How do you build an NMR power amplifier?
And how to you match it to the NMR coil?
Basically I'm looking to perform NMR experiments with frequencies in the 500KHZ region. I already have an arbitrary function generator that I can program with the required pulses at that frequency, now I need to amplifier the signal, and deliver the current to a coil.
How do build an amplifier that can drive a lot of current into a coil at that frequency? Do I resonate the coil with a capacitor, and if so, how do I ensure the resulting circuit won't ring, and ruin the pulse sequences?
