Product Overview
The AP5042A G3 vector signal generator is a multi-channel, ultra-agile vector signal generator with a high-performance internal I/Q modulator.
Enable outstanding, ultra-fast continuous wave (CW) frequency sweeping, chirping, intra-pulse modulation, frequency hopping, and pulse shaping, all with very low phase noise. Per channel, a high-performance internal I/Q modulator enables customized modulation waveforms and supports dedicated modulation schemes, including avionics modulation. Each output can be programmed independently in frequency, power, phase, and modulation, and the outputs are phase-coherent with excellent phase stability.
