Synthesized Signal Generator – SSG

SSG'ORIGINAL22

 

  • So many jobs in the lab require a good quality synthesized RF signal generator used solely as a CW source. The SSG is designed to be a workhorse in the lab, providing a low phase noise synthesized CW output in a small package that is easy to move around, and without the penalty of paying for features you don’t need.

    Applications

    • A general purpose laboratory workhorse
    • Frequency hopping CW LO for frequency converters
    • Test source for device characterization

    Advantages

    • Low cost
    • Small size and light weight
    • Fast settling

    • 10 MHz – 4000 MHz
    • 40 dB power range
    • Low phase noise CW output
    • Automatic selection between internal or external 10 MHz reference
    • Front panel, RS232, GPIB, and LAN controls
