Description
LSX2092B Signal Generator
The LSX2092B Signal Generator is a high performance 20 GHz dual channel microwave signal source built for advanced RF and microwave testing. As part of the Lucid-X modular platform, it delivers low phase noise, ultra fast frequency switching, and versatile modulation capabilities in a compact benchtop design. Engineers working in radar development, aerospace systems, electronic warfare, and production test environments rely on this instrument for accurate and repeatable signal generation.
Signal Integrity
Signal integrity is critical in high frequency applications. The LSX2092B Signal Generator offers excellent phase noise performance with -148 dBc/Hz at 100 MHz, -133 dBc/Hz at 1 GHz, and -114 dBc/Hz at 10 GHz, measured at 10 kHz offset. Harmonics are maintained at -50 dBc and non harmonics are below -90 dBc. This ensures clean spectral output for local oscillator applications, intermodulation distortion measurements, and high performance DAC and ADC clocking systems. The result is stable and reliable testing across demanding microwave environments.
Fast Frequency Switching
The LSX2092B Signal Generator supports ultra fast switching below 10 µs with coherent phase continuity. This capability minimizes downtime during automated production testing and increases throughput. It also enables realistic simulation of frequency hopping radar systems, secure communication protocols, and electronic warfare scenarios. Engineers can execute rapid measurements while maintaining phase accuracy and stability.
Analog and Pulse Modulation
The LSX2092B Signal Generator includes advanced built in modulation features. Frequency modulation supports deviation up to 10 MHz with rates up to 1 MHz. Amplitude modulation provides linear depth up to 90 percent with rates up to 100 kHz. Phase modulation supports peak deviation up to 360 degrees. Pulse modulation delivers a high 70 dB on off ratio with rise and fall times under 15 ns, making it suitable for radar pulse testing and complex microwave signal simulations.
Control and Integration
The LSX2092B Signal Generator integrates smoothly into automated test systems. It supports industry standard SCPI and VISA architecture and connects via LAN, USB, or SPI interfaces. Programming is supported through Python, MATLAB, C, C++, C#, and LabVIEW environments. The included virtual front panel enables intuitive local or remote control. With multiple form factors including PXIe, rackmount, desktop, benchtop, and portable configurations, this signal generator adapts to laboratory, field, and production environments.
The LSX2092B Signal Generator combines dual channel flexibility, 20 GHz coverage, and ultra fast switching to deliver dependable performance for demanding microwave applications.
