Rohde & Schwarz SMA100A RF Signal Generator

Additional Product Information

The R&S SMA100A combines superior signal quality with very high setting speed, which makes it ideal for any task. Whether in development, production, service or maintenance, the R&S SMA100A does an excellent job.

In the frequency range from 9 kHz to 6 GHz, it can generate CW signals as well as all common types of analog modulation (AM, FM, phase, pulse modulation). Excellent specifications and a wide range of modulation signals – these are the characteristic features of the R&S SMA100A. In addition, a low-jitter clock synthesizer option supplies differential clock signals of up to 1.5 GHz independently of the RF frequency. This makes the R&S SMA100A suitable for a variety of applications – from use in phase noise test systems through to tests on mixed-signal ICs.

The Signal Generator R&S SMA100A also offers a modern graphical user interface for fast and intuitive operation.

Excellent signal quality

• Very low SSB phase noise of typ. –135 dBc (20 kHz carrier offset, f = 1 GHz, 1 Hz measurement bandwidth), typ. –140 dBc with the Enhanced Phase Noise Performance option (R&S SMA-B22)
• Wideband noise of typ. –160 dBc (>10 MHz carrier offset, f = 1 GHz, 1 Hz measurement bandwidth)
• Nonharmonics of typ. –100 dBc (>10 kHz carrier offset, f < 1500 MHz, with the R&S SMA-B22 option)

Ideal for use in production

• Very short frequency and level setting times of <3 ms across the entire frequency and level range, <450 μs in the list mode
• Fast hopping mode with flexibly addressable frequency and level pairs, as fast as normal list mode
• Frequency setting time of typ. <10 μs within a bandwidth of 40 MHz due to direct access to the DDS-based synthesizer (with the R&S SMA-B20 or -B22 option)
• Electronic attenuator with built-in overvoltage protection over entire frequency range
• High output power of up to +18 dBm, overrange +28 dBm
• Very high level accuracy and repeatability

Mil / Aero applications

• Pulse modulator with excellent characteristics (on/off ratio >80 dB, rise/fall time typ. 10 ns)
• Pulse generator integrated as standard
• Optional high-performance pulse generator with minimum pulse width of 20 ns (R&S SMA-K23)
• Optional VOR/ILS modulation (R&S® SMA-K25)

All-purpose instrument

• Frequency range of 9 kHz to 3 GHz / 6 GHz
• Frequency, level and LF sweeps
• AM, broadband FM/phase (R&S SMA-B20 or -B22), pulse modulation
• Built-in LF generator up to 1 MHz, optional multifunction generator (R&S SMA-K24) up to 10 MHz
• Optional low-jitter clock synthesizer up to 1.5 GHz (R&S SMA-B29)

Intuitive operating concept

• Intuitive user interface with graphical display of signal flow (block diagram)
• Context-sensitive online help

Versatile interfaces

• Remote control via GPIB or LAN
• USB connectors (e.g. for keyboard, mouse, memory stick)
• Connector for R&S® NRP power sensors for precise power measurements
• Selectable SCPI- or 8662A/63A-compatible GPIB bus command set
• Control via remote operation tool (e.g. VNC)
