Microwave Signal Generator SMP

Microwave signals in the range
from 10 MHz to 40 GHz

The basic models of the SMP cover the

following frequency ranges:

SMP02/SMP22 (2 GHz to 20 GHz)

SMP03 (2 GHz to 27 GHz)

SMP04 (2 GHz to 40 GHz)

The lower frequency limit can be option-

ally extended to 10 MHz.

A modern frequency synthesis concept

with direct digital synthesis (DDS) is the

basis of:

stable output frequency

0.1 Hz frequency resolution

fast settling after a frequency

change

High, levelled output power

All SMP models have been designed for

high output power without any compro-

mises:

SMP02 (>+11.5 dBm)

SMP22 (>+20 dBm)

SMP03 (>+13 dBm)

SMP04 (>+10 dBm)

The output levels specified are valid for

the upper frequency limit.

Excellent spectral purity

High spectral purity is ensured by the use

of YIG oscillators – up to 20 GHz without

any frequency multiplying:

Harmonics

<–50 dBc typ. for f >1.8 GHz

Nonharmonics <–60/54 dBc

up to/above 20 GHz

SSB phase noise at

10 GHz <–105 dBc (1 Hz)

(10 kHz from carrier)

Versatile modulation
capabilities

AM, FM and optional

ϕM modulation

meet the high standards usually expected

of low-frequency generators only. The

large variety of options includes a high-

speed pulse modulator:

AM (DC to 100 kHz)

FM (DC to 5 MHz)

ϕM (DC to 100 kHz)

Pulse modulation with

on/off ratio >80 dB

Large choice of options for
user-specific configuration

A wide selection of options allows the

SMP to be configured economically to

meet today's and tomorrow's require-

ments:

Pulse generator and pulse modulators

Frequency extension 0.01 to 2 GHz

RF attenuator

Modulation generator up to 500 kHz

Precision FM/

ϕM modulator

OCXO reference oscillator

Auxiliary interface
