Based on the successful R&S SMU200A platform, the R&S SMATE200A is specifically designed for production environments. As such, the display and front panel user interface have been removed, the connectors moved to the rear, and performance has been optimized for fastest setting times to improve factory throughput. Like the R&S SMU200A, however, the two-generators-in-one concept has been kept, occupying four height units - a plus for production where space is at a premium. All of this is available without compromising the excellent RF performance and baseband flexibility synonymous with the R&S SMU200A.
Designed for production:
Very short setting times for frequency and level (e.g. for frequency changes <2 ms over GPIB and <400 in List mode)
Fast Hop mode offering flexibly addressable frequency/level pairs; as fast as normal List mode
Multisegment waveform function enables fast switching between different test signals in waveform generator
Special hardware triggers for basic functions
Electronic attenuator for entire frequency and level range
Status LEDs on front, connectors on rear
Revised cooling concept for longer life in production
Outstanding signal quality
Very low SSB phase noise (typ. 135 dBc/Hz at f = 1 GHz, 20 kHz offset; typ. 140 dBc/Hz with low phase noise option)
Wideband noise of typ. 153 dBc (>10 MHz carrier offset, f = 1 GHz, 1 Hz measurement bandwidth)
High output power of typ. +26 dBm with high-power output option
Very high level repeatability of typ. 0.05 dB
I/Q modulator with 200 MHz RF bandwidth
Excellent ACLR performance of typ. +70 dB with 3GPP FDD
Two signal generators in one
Up to two completely independent signal generators in one unit
Choice of 3 GHz or 6 GHz frequency options in one or two paths
Up to two independent baseband sources that not only support realtime signal generation but also offer arbitrary waveform generation with up to 128 Msamples each
Connectivity
Remote-controllable via LAN (Gigabit Ethernet) and GPIB
User-definable triggers and markers combined in one SCSI connector
