Signal quality, speed and flexibility are three key criteria by which modern signal generators are assessed. To launch a microwave signal generator that is in the lead in each of these disciplines was the objective in designing the R&S SMF100A.
To meet the development objectives, the company devised a completely new design concept for the R&S SMF100A.
According to the company, this created a generator with excellent spectral purity, high output level, short frequency and level setting times, and intelligent option concept. These features make the SMF100A suitable for any type of application in R&D, production, maintenance and repair.
While offering an architecture consistently geared to maximum performance, the generator is accommodated in a relatively small box. With a height of three units, a width of 19", and a depth of 550 mm, the generator takes up minimum space on a lab bench or in the rack. And it weighs no more than 18 kg including all options.
