Fast Switching, Multi-Octave Frequency Synthesizers Feature Low-Phase Noise, Fine-Tuning Steps.
A series of fast-switching frequency synthesizers is available in three custom multi-octave frequency bands to 8 GHz and is targeted as a lab source for prototype and bench-top testing.
The three models from EM Research include the SBC-3000 frequency synthesizer, which operates from 400 to 3000 MHz, and features tuning steps of 1 Hz, with exceptionally low- phase noise (-100 dBc/Hz @ 10 KHz). The SBC-5000 operates from 700 to 5000 MHz, features tuning steps of 1 Hz, and low-phase noise (-95 dBc/Hz @ 10 KHz). The SBC-8000 operates from 5000 to 8000 MHz, features tuning steps of 1 Hz, with low-phase noise (-95 dBc/Hz @ 10 KHz).
The units are locked to a 10 MHz external reference and offer +7 dBm output power, -15 dBc harmonics and -60 dBc spurs. Options include external or internal references (10-500 MHz) and extended temperature ranges.
