• Low phase noise: -128 dBc/Hz

• 1 Hz resolution

• Low spurious

• BCD/GPIB interface

Description:

Measuring

and

evaluating

todays

wireless

sys-

tems and system components is a challenging task.

The performance specifications of these systems are

extremely diverse and include many analog, digit-

al and complex modulation schemes over a wide

frequency range.

FastSource™

products

from

Aeroflex

includ-

ing Synthesized Sources, IQ Vector Modulators,

and AWGs have been designed to meet these

challenges.

The

FastSource™1200

synthesizer

covers

the

frequency range of 4.5 MHz to 6.0 GHz with a switching

speed of less than 100 µsec; spurious levels are typically

less than -70 dBc and phase noise at 2 GHz is typically less

than -123 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset.

The FastSource™1200 is 30 times faster and 10 times

cleaner than the nearest competitor.

The FastSource™1200 is built from a set of

“standard” RF modules interfaced to a common mother

board. Modules can be changed without any adjustments

thereby simplifying maintenance, logistics and reducing

downtime.

Statistical MTBF exceeds 12000 hours.

The FastSource™1200 product line supports high speed

testing of not only wireless communications systems

and components but also mobile network devices and

Bluetooth enabled products.

It is ideally suited for customers in the OEM ATE

market place where processing speed and throughput are

paramount.
