Gigatronics 2526A Overview

The new Panther 2500 series signal generators delivers industry-best offset phase noise performance, high output power, and fast frequency switching speeds in a single unit. Panther series signal generators are offered in two different configurations designed for bench top and ATE applications covering 100 KHz to 8 GHz, 20 GHz, 26.5 GHz, and 40 GHz with frequency resolution of 0.0001 Hz over the entire band. Loaded with standard performance features such as high time base stability, frequency modulation (FM), high-speed pulse/square wave modulation (PM), amplitude modulation (AM) and high leveled output power makes it an excellent test solution for a wide range of CW, modulation, swept frequency, and fast frequency switching applications in both R&D and manufacturing environment.

The 2500 series signal generator utilizes the Giga-tronics new Advanced Synthesizer Technology that delivers excellent close in phase noise performance of -84dBc @ 100 Hz and -104dBc @ 1KHz and ultra low phase noise performance of -111 dBc @ 10 KHz and 100 KHz offset on a 10 GHz carrier frequency.

The Panther 2500 series signal generator is a unique blend of performance, reliability and a simple user interface that helps our customers lower their overall cost of ownership by shortening instrument-learning time and reducing systems integration effort through Automation Xpress™.

The Panther 2500 series unit has full command compatibility with 2400 series and previous generation signal generators from Gigatronics. In addition, Giga-tronics offers an optional command set for legacy signal generators offered by other manufacturers allowing customers to replace all legacy signal generators with single unit from Giga-tronics.
