Test & Measurement
Capable of bidirectional fixed attenuation, swept attenuation ramps, and fading profiles, the Vaunix LDA-602Q four-port programmable attenuator provides up to 120dB of control range with a 0.1dB step size from 200MHz to 6GHz. Each of four RF ports of this device has a 50ohm impedance with VSWR less than 1.3:1. Fast switching speeds of 15us can be expected. The unit is compact, fitting into a single standard rack unit with well-spaced 50ohm SMA female connectors for each RF port. Additionally, the only power and control connection is from a standard USB type-B female.
The attenuator has a large attenuation range of 120dB with an exceptional 0.1dB step size, allowing for both precision and accuracy during fading tests or device characterizations. This attenuator also features a fast 15us switching speed, an operating temperature from -30C to 50C, a maximum RF input of +28dBm. The device operates with a low insertion loss of 9dB to 6GHz, an input IP3 of +55dBm and a typical VSWR of 1.3:1. four-port programmable devices are coming soon.
The LMS-183DX 6-18GHz signal generator offers up to 80dB of power control range. This unit typically operates with a voltage stand wave ratio at 1:4:1 (2.0:1 maximum) and weighs less than one pound. Maximum harmonics are -25dBc (-38dBc typically) when the device is set to +10dBm output power.
