1.1
Application Range of the R&S AM300
Application
The R&S AM300 dual-channel signal generator is capable of producing
both arbitrary and function signals. It offers powerful functionality and
spectral purity at a favourable price. Due to its excellent characteristics the
instrument represents digitally created signals with almost no distortion. The
R&S AM300 is therefore the reference signal source for a host of
applications.
With its high sample rate of up
to
100 MS/s, a 256k points waveform
memory per channel and the Waveform Composer software, it can produce
virtually any waveform, whether for use in the laboratory, in production or in
the service department.
The two channels on the instrument are coupled precisely in phase, making
it possible to generate analog I/Q signals with which to modulate a signal
generator such as the R&S SM300.
The upper frequency limits of 35 MHz for sine signals and 50 MHz for
square signals offers enough leeway for future tasks.
Performance
The main characteristics are as follows:
Two channels, each with separately selectable waveform, frequency
and amplitude
Differential phase can be set with 0.01° resolution
Harmonic suppression for sine wave (1 MHz) typically 70 dB (0.03 %)
Highly stable reference frequency (1 ppm/year)
Jitter-free clock generator
to
50 MHz
USB interface (with file management on USB memory stick)
Standard waveforms: sine, triangle, ramp, square, exponential, noise,
pulse
Frequency range: 35 MHz for sine, 50 MHz for square
Modulation modes: AM, FM,
φ
M, FSK, PSK, burst
Operation from
keypad
All functions and parameters can be set via menus using a keypad and a
rotary knob. Current parameters and operating states are clearly arranged
on a TFT colour display.
Remote control from
a PC
The R&S AM300 is equipped as standard with a USB interface so that it
can communicate with a PC. All functions and parameters can be set.
