Rohde & Schwarz: new high-end signal generator

Posted 12 June 2017

Rohde & Schwarz introduces SMA100B, a new high-end analog RF and microwave signal generator that delivers signals with the lowest possible phase noise at all offset frequencies (1 GHz, –152 dBc/Hz, 20 kHz offset) and the highest output power with extremely low harmonics.

A 6 GHz instrument generates up to 38 dBm RF output power, and a 20 GHz instrument generates up to 32 dBm in the microwave frequency range. Harmonics are extremely low across the entire frequency range: above 6 GHz they are even significantly lower than 70 dBc at 18 dBm output power. Nonharmonics are below 110 dBc at an output signal of 1 GHz.

R&S SMA100B has a pulse modulator and generates pulses with extremely short rise and fall times and an on/off ratio below 90 dB.

SMA100B is designed for the RF semiconductor, wireless communications and aerospace and defense industries.

The new signal generator is included in the R&S Legacy Pro program and can easily replace obsolete signal generators from Rohde & Schwarz and other manufacturers in automated test environments without the need to modify test software.
