SG40000PRO Signal Generator 40GHz

SG40000PRO Signal Generator 40GHz

Introducing the SG40000PRO, our highest-performance device yet!

A low-phase-noise 0.1 to 40GHz premium microwave signal generator.

After years of development DS Instrument’s new ultra-compact microwave signal generator has been released. The PRO version offers full-band frequency coverage down to 100MHz, a more stable frequency reference, and more robust DC input options than the standard SG40000L. Like our SG6000 product line, this RF generator is fully programmable via SCPI commands, or the front panel interface making it more flexible than any competing product. With an all-new low-phase-noise synthesizer, the SG40000PRO is aimed at phase-noise sensitive applications in C, X, Ku, K, and Ka-band development, testing, and converting.

Includes the same oven-controlled precision 10MHz reference clock as the SG30000PRO!
