Description
LSX2094R Four Microwave
The LSX2094R Four Microwave Signal Generator is a 20GHz, four-channel source that sets the industry benchmark for multi-channel RF and microwave testing. Part of the Lucid-X family, this generator provides ultra-low phase noise, ultra-fast frequency switching, and flexible analog modulation in a compact, 19″ 1U rack format. It is engineered for the most demanding applications, including radar systems, electronic warfare, secure communications, high-speed automated testing, and multi-channel research environments.
Signal Integrity
The LSX2094R delivers exceptional spectral purity with phase noise of -133 dBc/Hz at 1 GHz (10 kHz offset), harmonics at -50 dBc, and non-harmonics at -90 dBc. Coherent multi-channel switching ensures precise phase alignment across all four channels, making it ideal for intermodulation distortion measurements, high-performance DAC/ADC clocking, and advanced RF simulations.
Fast Frequency Switching
With <10 µs frequency switching, this generator significantly reduces dead time during automated tests, increasing throughput and efficiency. It is essential for simulating real-world frequency-hopping environments, electronic warfare systems, and secure communication protocols where signals must vary rapidly and accurately.
Modulation Capabilities
Equipped with AM, FM, PM, Sweep, and Pulse modulation, the LSX2094R offers FM deviations up to 10 MHz (rates up to 1 MHz), AM linear depth up to 90% (rates up to 100 kHz), and PM peak deviation up to 360°. Pulse modulation features fast rise/fall times (<15 ns) and a high on/off ratio (~70 dB). Optional packages extend modulation and power capabilities for specialized applications, ensuring flexibility for all analog and RF simulation needs.
Control and Programming
The LSX2094R integrates seamlessly using SCPI and VISA commands over LAN, USB, or SPI. It supports Python, MATLAB, C#/C++, and LabVIEW, while the virtual front panel allows intuitive control locally or across a network. This flexibility ensures the generator can be deployed in labs, embedded systems, or portable setups with ease.
The LSX2094R Four Microwave Generator delivers multi-channel coherence, rapid switching, ultra-low phase noise, and versatile modulation in a compact footprint, making it ideal for the most challenging RF and microwave applications.
