APLC-X Multi-Channel Signal Generator
AnaPico
10 MHz (9 kHz with option 9K) to 12.75, 20, 40 or 54 GHz Agile Ultra-low Phase Noise Signal Generator
The APLCXX-X is an agile ultra-low phase noise signal generator from 10 MHz (9 kHz with option 9K) to 12.75 GHz (APLC12-X), 20 GHz (APLC20-X), 40 GHz (APLC40-X), or 54 GHz (APLC50-X). It is available in 1, 2, 3 or 4 channel configurations in a 2HU 19’’ enclosure. For high phase coherence, RF channels are locked to a single reference source. Excellent harmonic and spurious performance in combination with fast switching makes the instruments suitable where high performance is required in labs or production facilities.
Supported SCPI commands: SMA100B, SMB100A, E8257D, N5183B, N5173B
The single-channel version APLCXX is available in a portable / bench-top enclosure with color touch display and front panel control or as a rack-mountable module.

It is available with 1 to 4 independently programmable, phase-coherent outputs. Excellent harmonic and spurious performance in combination with fast switching makes the instruments very well usable for most demanding applications in labs or production facilities.
