Rohde & Schwarz SMA100 Signal Generator, 9 kHz to 6 GHz
The R&S® SMA100A combines superior signal quality with very high setting speed, which makes it ideal for any task. Whether in development, production, service or maintenance, the R&S® SMA100A does an excellent job.
In the frequency range from 9 kHz to 6 GHz, it can generate CW signals as well as all common types of analog modulation (AM, FM, fM, pulse modulation). Excellent specifications and a wide range of modulation signals – these are the characteristic features of the R&S® SMA100A. In addition, a low-jitter clock synthesizer option supplies differential clock signals of up to 1.5 GHz independently of the RF frequency.
Excellent signal quality
- Very low SSB phase noise of typ. –135 dBc (20 kHz carrier offset, f = 1 GHz, 1 Hz measurement bandwidth), typ. –140 dBc with the Enhanced Phase Noise Performance option (R&S ® SMA-B22)
- Wideband noise of typ. –160 dBc (>10 MHz carrier offset, f = 1 GHz, 1 Hz measurement bandwidth)
- Nonharmonics of typ. –100 dBc (>10 kHz carrier offset, f < 1500 MHz, with the R&S® SMA-B22 option)
Ideal for use in production
- Very short frequency / level setting times of typ. 1.3 ms/1ms across the entire frequency and level range, <450 µs in LIST mode
- Fast hopping mode with flexibly addressable frequency and level pairs, as fast as normal LIST mode
- Frequency setting time of nominal 10 µs within a bandwidth of 80 MHz due to direct access to the DDS-based synthesizer (with the R&S® SMA-B20 or R&S® SMA-B22 option; FM EXTERNAL DIGITAL mode)
- Electronic attenuator with built-in overvoltage protection over entire frequency range
- High output power of up to +18 dBm, overrange +28 dBm
- Very high level accuracy and repeatability
Mil/Aero applications
