In use, the PXI-5441 ARB (arbitrary waveform generator) generates an IF (intermediate frequency) signal. That, in turn, is fed into the PXI-5610; it then heterodynes it up to any chosen RF channel you ...

We suppose the fail-badge could be pinned on [electronupdate] for this one in a way; after all, he did shell out $200 for the RF Explorer signal generator, which touts coverage from 24 MHz to 6 GHz.

Testing GNSS Receivers with Record and Playback TechniquesIs there a way to perform repeatable tests on GNSS receivers using real signals? This month’s column looks at how to use an RF vector signal ...

The addition of a high-output RF signal generator not only simplifies your RF test setup, it also can overcome some of the issues associated with lossy cables and components.

Today's RF signal generators come in virtually every color and stripe. Although traditionalists conjure up images of heavy grey-painted bench-level boxes with vernier tuning dials and clicky step ...

The emerging capabilities of the latest RF signal generators and analyzers are empowering engineers to use off-the-shelf instruments in an ever-expanding field of applications that were once ...

We generally don’t highlight commercial products in FotW, but in the case of this substandard RF signal generator, we’ll make an exception.

The R&S SGS100A is a signal generator from Rohde & Schwarz, is more compact than previous RF sources but delivers the same performance as high-end conventional instruments. It covers the frequency ...
