GT-ASAM18A - Advanced Signal Analyzer Module

GT-ASAM18A - Advanced Signal Analyzer Module
Main features
  • Frequency range – 500 MHz to 18 GHz with 1 Hz resolution
  • Phase coherent frequency switching – real time, < 1 μs
  • Down-conversion – wide instantaneous bandwidth, 1 GHz
  • Multi-channel – phase coherent
  • Modular format and compact size
  • Control – PCIe, BCD parallel, USB

The Giga-tronics GT-ASAM18A Advanced Signal Analyzer combines an agile, low noise, phase coherent local oscillator with a state-of-the-art millimeter-wave down-converter to acquire microwave signals over the 500 MHz to 18 GHz frequency range. The down converted IF output allows the GT-ASAM18A to support the analysis of wide bandwidth modulated signals used in RADAR and modern  communication systems. The GT-ASAM18A is based upon the industry standard AXIe modular format and works with the Giga-tronics GT-SRM100A frequency reference and the GT-CHSIS2A two-channel chassis or the GT-CHSIS4A four-channel chassis.
