APLC High-purity Signal Source
10 MHz (9 kHz with option 9K) to 12.75, 20, 40 or 54 GHz Agile Ultra-low Phase Noise Signal Generator
The APLCXX is an agile ultra-low phase noise signal generator from 10 MHz (9 kHz with option 9K) to 12.75 GHz (APLC12), 20 GHz (APLC20), 40 GHz (APLC40) or 54 GHz (APLC50) with excellent harmonic and spurious performance.
The signal source is available as mountable module or in a compact enclosure with display and front panel control.
Supported SCPI commands: SMA100B, SMB100A, E8257D, N5183B, N5173B
The multi-channel version APLCXX-X is available in 1, 2, 3 or 4 channel configurations in a 2HU 19’’ enclosure
Download CatalogThe APLCXX is an agile ultra-low phase noise signal generator from 10 MHz (9 kHz with option 9K) to 12.75 GHz (APLC12), 20 GHz (APLC20), 40 GHz (APLC40), or 54 GHz (APLC50). Excellent harmonic and spurious performance in combination with fast switching make the instruments very well usable in labs or production facilities.
