APULN High Performance Models up to 40 GHz
Ultra-Low Noise Microwave Signal Generators from 100 kHz up to 6, 12.75, 20, 26 or 40 GHz
The APULN is a high-performance analog signal generator (analog signal source) series covering RF and microwave frequency ranges from 100 kHz (optionally 8 kHz) to 6, 12.75, 20, 26 and 40 GHz. A combination of characteristics such as good signal purity, ultra-low phase noise, high output power and fast switching speed, along with their very compact size, low weight and low power consumption makes the instruments very well usable in labs, manufacturing, and outdoor fields.
