APULN Series High Performance Microwave Analog Signal Generators-Output up to 40GHz

Classification:

Signal generator

The APULN series of high-performance analog signal generators with outputs covering the microwave frequency range from 100 kHz (optional 8 kHz) to 12.75, 20, 26 and 40 GHz with a frequency resolution of 0.001Hz. The analog signal generator combines very good signal purity, very low phase noise, high output power and a high-speed switching speed of 30µs to support a variety of analog modulations, including pulse and chirp modulation with a programmable pattern. The APULN series analog signal generator has both compact size, light weight and low power consumption (can be powered by an external rechargeable battery), making this instrument very suitable for use in laboratories, manufacturing and outdoor fields.

    Host model Frequency Output Range (Standard) Frequency output range (option)
    APULN12 100kHz ~ 12.75GHz 8kHz ~ 12.75GHz
    APULN20 100kHz~20GHz 8kHz ~ 20GHz
    APULN26 100kHz ~ 26GHz 8kHz ~ 26GHz
    APULN40 100kHz ~ 40GHz 8kHz ~ 40GHz

    Key features:

    ● Ultra-stable temperature compensated frequency reference (OCXO) operation to ensure extremely low drift

    ● With 0.001Hz frequency resolution and very low phase noise (1GHz carrier:-148dBc/Hz @ 100kHz)

    ● Very good signal purity with non-harmonic spurs as low as-90dBc

    ● Wide and precise output power range

    ● Rich modulation functions such as FM,PM, pulse and frequency chirp and configurable pulse sequences

    ● 30µs high-speed switching (frequency and amplitude)

    ● Scan, trigger function and flexible external reference frequency (between 5 and 250 MHz)

    Low power consumption: allows the use of battery mobile power for DC power supply in outdoor field applications

    ● Various chassis shell forms: portable/desktop, 19-inch rack-mounted, etc.

    ● Local front panel touch screen operation, USB, Ethernet and optional GPIB communication ports, as well as local or remote operation by PC operation using GUI software or ATE commands (SCPI 1999)

    APULN series RF and microwave signal generators are suitable for many applications in the laboratory, production floor and outdoor areas:

    ● As a universal portable RF signal source for rigorous testing of electronic, wireless, satellite modules and systems

    ● Ideal ADC clock

    ● Very low phase noise local oscillator

    ● EMC / EMI testing

    ● Service, maintenance and validation

    ● Signal simulation (radar, analog modulated radio, wireless and satellite, aerospace and defense, etc.)

    ● 19-inch rack mount version especially for system integration
