Synthesizer Modules
HSM Series
The HSM Series RF Synthesizers are microwave CW sources that are architected on a non-PLL based platform. The digital-analog hybrid design provides excellent phase noise performance and spurious response, which complement the phase coherent nature of these digital-analog hybrid signal sources. The HSM Series offers several models that cover increasingly wider bandwidths so users can best match an application requirement while optimizing the price point.

Understanding the Basics of RF Signal Generation
RF signal generators have been a staple in test and measurement for more than a half century. During that time, they have evolved in countless ways, but the underlying principles have remained the same. This article will provide an overview of the basic construction of an RF signal generator and the associated figures of merit.
