Sumario:This talk tries an overview of recent developments in RF sources for linear accelerators of different scales and for various applications, spanning a frequency range from about 100 MHz to X-band, spanning duty factors from about 10⁻³ to CW, and spanning power levels from a few kW up to hundreds of MW average. Exciting recent trends include new bunching concepts for klystrons promising a significant increase of efficiency and better power combiners paving the way to MW-class solid state power amplifiers.
