Description
LSX2091X Single PXIe
The LSX2091X Single PXIe Microwave Signal Generator sets a new standard in microwave testing by providing a 20GHz single-channel PXIe module with superior spectral purity, low phase noise, and ultra-fast frequency switching. Ideal for modern RF and microwave applications, it combines precision, flexibility, and a compact footprint, making it perfect for radar systems, electronic warfare, secure communications, and automated testing.
Signal Integrity and Precision
The LSX2091X ensures outstanding signal integrity across its entire frequency range. It delivers exceptional phase noise performance: -133 dBc/Hz at 1 GHz (10 kHz offset), harmonics at -50 dBc, and non-harmonics at -90 dBc. Coherent single-channel operation guarantees precise phase alignment, supporting high-performance DAC/ADC clocking and critical RF measurement systems.
Fast Frequency Switching for Modern Applications
With frequency switching under 10 µs, the LSX2091X minimizes dead time in automated testing, boosting throughput while reducing costs. Its fast switching also enables accurate simulation of real-world scenarios such as frequency-hopping radar, electronic warfare, and secure communication protocols that require pulse-to-pulse frequency changes.
Advanced Modulation Capabilities
The LSX2091X supports AM, FM, PM, Sweep, and Pulse modulation, offering versatile signal simulation for analog and RF communications. Frequency Modulation (FM) supports deviations up to 10 MHz at rates up to 1 MHz. Amplitude Modulation (AM) reaches linear depths of up to 90% at rates up to 100 kHz, while Phase Modulation (PM) allows peak deviations of 360°. Pulse modulation delivers fast rise/fall times (<15 ns) and a high on/off ratio (~70 dB), ensuring precise performance in radar and electronic warfare applications.
Flexible Control and Programming
The LSX2091X integrates seamlessly with SCPI and VISA protocols over LAN, USB, or SPI interfaces. Compatibility with Python, MATLAB, C#/C++, and LabVIEW allows easy programming and automation. A virtual front panel provides intuitive local and network control for efficient testing and development.
The LSX2091X Single PXIe Generator combines ultra-high precision, low phase noise, rapid switching, and versatile modulation in a compact PXIe module, making it the ideal choice for advanced RF and microwave testing.
