Description
The DS Instruments SG12000PRO RF Signal Generator continues to set the industry standard in affordable ultra-compact RF Signal Generation. The SG12000PRO provides a pure, low-harmonic signal unlike most other compact signal generators. This fully synthesized, modern fractional-N synthesis device covers from 20 to 13000+MHz. Output power is adjustable in steps and continuously over the entire frequency range. The bright OLED display provides useful feedback for the user, and front control buttons provide a quick alternative to USB control. This PRO version has phase noise approximately 30dB lower than the standard SG12000, a much smaller minimum frequency step size, a more accurate output level calibration, a wider frequency range, and higher max output power.
