The APSYN420 models consist of low phase noise synthesizers operating up to 20 GHz. The modules have a mHz frequency resolution and use a high-stability internal reference. The internal reference can be phase-locked to a programmable external reference. An optional fast switching feature reduces switching speed below 20 micro-seconds.
The rf synthesizer modules have USB and LAN interfaces and can be controlled using SCPI 1999 command set. Operated with an external DC supply, they typically consume less than 10 W power. AnaPico also offers microwave signal sources with multiple synchronous outputs and frequencies up to 20 GHz.
