Rohde & Schwarz SGS100A RF Signal Generator

Overview

The Rohde & Schwarz SGS100A is an RF source designed for automated test systems, available as either a continuous-wave (CW) source or a vector signal generator with integrated I/Q modulator. With a frequency range up to 12.75 GHz, the vector signal generation version covers essential digital signal standards, while the CW version serves as a flexible local oscillator and for interference testing against mobile radio standards.

Key Features

• Smallest fully integrated vector signal generator on the market with space-saving design for system integration
• Frequency coverage up to 12.75 GHz for broad applicability
• Excellent RF performance in a compact format
• Maximum output level of typ. +22 dBm for compensating losses in the test setup
• Closed ALC loop for CW and I/Q modes for highest level repeatability
• Very short frequency and level setting times via PCIe interface for high test throughput
• Wear-free electronic attenuator for high reliability
• Cost-efficient with low initial costs and low cost of ownership

Applications

• Automated test systems for RF/microwave equipment
• Digital signal generation and modulation testing
• Mobile radio standard interference testing
• Local oscillator applications
