Rohde & Schwarz SMA100A Signal Generator, 9 kHz - 6 GHz

The Rohde & Schwarz SMA100A Signal Generator is a 9 kHz to 3 GHz / 6 GHz signal analysis instrument that achieves unparalleled signal quality, speed and flexibility. Rohde & Schwarz SMA100A signal generators generate CW signals as well as all common types of analog modulation (AM, FM, φM, pulse modulation). In addition, a low‑jitter clock synthesizer option supplies differential clock signals of up to 1.5 GHz independent of the RF frequency. This makes the R&S®SMA100A suitable for a variety of applications, from use in phase noise test systems to tests on mixed‑signal ICs.
