Anritsu's EcoSyn Lite MG36021A is a 10 MHz to 20 GHz CW Microwave frequency synthesizer module in a compact form factor with outstanding phase noise, ultra-fast switching speed and high output power.
EcoSyn Lite's phase noise performance of -126 dBc/Hz (typical) at 10 GHz and 10 kHz offset is one of the best in its class. Along with non-harmonic spurious of -60 dBc (max), EcoSyn Lite can be used as a high purity clock source with low jitter for Gbit ADC/DAC testing and in high-speed optical systems.
EcoSyn Lite's low phase noise both at close in and far off offsets and its robust output power of +18 dBm at 20 GHz makes it ideal for use as an LO for up/down converters in RF/microwave transceivers. These transceivers increasingly use complex and high order modulation signals which require LO’s with very low phase noise for up/down conversion.
EcoSyn Lite offers ultra-fast frequency switching time of less than 50 µs in triggered list mode. Fast frequency switching speed saves testing time in production test environments. Switching speed can also be critical in radar cross section (RCS) measurements necessary to establish radar signatures for known targets such as aircraft, ships, and missiles. Testing an antenna also requires measuring many frequencies. EcoSyn Lite's ultra-fast switching speed can save a lot of testing time.
EcoSyn Lite synthesizer module is housed in portable, compact size of 101.6 mm x 101.6 mm x 20.32 mm (4 in x 4 in x 0.8 in) in a form factor which enables it to be used in space-constrained applications which require instrumentation grade CW signal source. It supports USB and SPI interfaces for remote control and is powered using a +12 VDC source.
EcoSyn Lite supports standard SCPI and QuickSyn native commands which make developing scripts to remotely control and automate very easy and user friendly.
