Saelig Introduces Economical Siglent SSG3000X 2.1GHz/3.2GHz RF Signal Generators


 Touch, PC, or web control makes these versatile RF signal sources a valuable addition to an engineer’s test bench  SSG3000X

Fairport, NY, USA:  Saelig Company, Inc. has introduced the Siglent SSG3000X RF Signal Generators, which have a frequency range of 9kHz to 2.1GHz or 3.2GHz. They provide all of the common signal generation needs such as sweep control and analog modulations (AM, FM, PM) as well as pulse modulation and pulse train generation (option). Additionally, the IQE models can be used with a baseband generator such as the Siglent SDG6000X to generate IQ modulated signals.  With a 0.01Hz frequency setting resolution, the signal output can be adjusted from -110dBm to +13dBm with phase noise as low as -110dBc/Hz @ 1GHz.
The SSG3000X generators support input control from a 5 inch TFT capacitive touch screen, or mouse and keyboard.  External control may be from USB or LAN (VXI-11, Socket, Telnet) connection or optional GPIB.  Web browser remote control on a PC or mobile terminal is also supported.
With high accuracy and pure output signals, the SSG3000X series is an excellent choice for R&D, education, and manufacturing needs.
SSG3000X RF Signal Generators are made by Siglent Technologies, since 2002 one of the leading high quality test equipment manufacturers, with a growing worldwide reputation.

LabNotebook - This Interactive Notebook Is the Ultimate in Documentation!

Teledyne LeCroy's "LabNotebook" feature on its scopes makes report writing a breeze! It includes a text editor to annotate the notebook entries and a graphics editor to mark up screen images. These features allow users to completely document their measurement results.

The editor allows users to enter graphical elements directly from the scope's touch screen using a 'scribble' mode.

Using a Scope for Frequency Response Testing

In this video, Siglent's Jason Chonko shows how to use the automated Bode Plot feature of the SIGLENT SDS1004X-E series of four channel oscilloscopes to create a frequency response curve. This video applies to the SIGLENT SDS1104X-E and SDS1204X-E oscilloscopes as well as the SDG X series (SDG1X, 2X, and 6X) of arbitrary waveform generators. The 4 channel X-E oscilloscopes come with the Bode Plot function. To perform a Bode Plot, you just need a signal source. The 4 channel X-E can control the SIGLENT SAG1021 (which requires both hardware and the software activation key.. SDS1000X-E-FG) or one of the SDG X series generators (SDG1000X, 2000X, or 6000X). If you have an SDG X series generator, you can simply connect as shown in the video. No software license needed. This feature is only available with the four channel X-E scopes (SDS1104X-E and SDS1204X-E) at this time.    http://www.saelig.com/category/MFR00110.htm

Powerful 6GHz SigGen is under $6K!

The PicoSource™ AS108 Agile Synthesizer is a PC-based signal generator with an output over a 300kHz to 8GHz frequency range.  It is designed with fast settling time and programmable phase, frequency and amplitude capabilities. The AS108 offers professional performance qualities in both static and parameter-varying applications.  Its speed, external clock referencing, trigger capabilities and user-programmable power-up mode make it suitable for system integration in automated test, unmanned installations and multi-signal stimulus.
The AS108 is a full-function USB-controlled vector (IQ) modulating signal synthesizer. It is supplied with a comprehensive PC-based user interface for controlling amplitude, frequency and phase, including modulations, sweeps, hopping, and list modes. Multiple synthesizers can be controlled from a single controlling PC or device. Remote control is also possible using the API provided.
