Product overview

The R&S®SGS100A SGMA RF source is a high-performance RF signal generator designed around the needs of automated test systems. It works either as a CW source or, with I/Q modulation built in, as a vector signal generator, covering frequencies up to 12.75 GHz. The half-rack 1U chassis delivers a maximum output level of +22 dBm, and PCIe or Ethernet control gives the very fast setting speeds that high-throughput production demands. Its modular design keeps system integration flexible, while a wear-free electronic attenuator and a long calibration interval lower the overall cost of ownership and raise test reliability.

Key features

  • The smallest fully integrated vector signal generator on the market: 1U × half rack saves system space
  • Excellent RF performance with a maximum output level of typ. +22 dBm, enough to compensate setup losses
  • Fast setting over PCIe / Ethernet, raising automated test throughput
  • High linearity and repeatability for consistent test conditions
  • Wear-free electronic step attenuator for long-term reliability (R&S®SGS-B26 option)
  • A clean modular design shortens service time and reduces the risk of downtime
  • A long calibration interval reduces routine maintenance cost
  • Optional OCXO high-stability reference oscillator (R&S®SGS-B1) for improved frequency accuracy
  • Supports phase coherent multichannel output/input applications (R&S®SGS-K90 option)

Typical applications

  • Integration into automated test equipment (ATE) systems
  • Signal generation and verification for digital communications systems
  • Local oscillator (LO) applications
  • Interference immunity testing against mobile radio standards
  • Millimeter-wave upconversion systems (with the R&S®SGU100A)
  • Characterization of aerospace and defense RF components
