The CSG9K40GA from Corech Microwave is a Pulse and Sweep RF Signal Generator that operates from 9 kHz to 40 GHz with optional functional extension to 43 GHz. It is designed for professional test and measurement applications requiring precise signal generation, low phase noise, and fast switching capability. This signal generator provides an output power range of -120 to +20 dBm with a resolution of 0.1 dB and a level accuracy of ±0.5 dB. It has harmonic levels of better than -40 dBc and non-harmonic spurious of less than -60 dBc across the operating range.
The CSG9K40GA has an SSB phase noise of -110 dBc/Hz at a 10 kHz offset at 10 GHz and supports a linear step sweep from 9 kHz to 43 GHz with 2 to 65,535 points and adjustable dwell times of 10 ms to 10 s, with a step-to-step switching speed of 300 µs. The built-in pulse modulator provides rise and fall times of 15 ns (above 100 MHz), an On/Off ratio of 70 dBc, and a minimum pulse width of 100 ns, and supports single- and double-pulse modes with adjustable delay.
The CSG9K40GA supports internal 10 MHz and 100 MHz reference outputs and an external 10 MHz reference input for system synchronization. It can be controlled manually via a 5-inch touchscreen and keyboard or remotely via Ethernet using SCPI commands. This RoHS and REACH-compliant signal generator requires an AC supply of 110 to 240 V and is available in a compact benchtop enclosure measuring 370 × 365 × 89 mm. It has a 2.9 mm (Male) connector and can operate over a temperature range from 0°C to +50°C. It is ideal for use in RF testing, radar systems, communication test benches, semiconductor validation, and research applications.
