Saelig Introduces Compact VSG2G5C USB 2.5GHz RF Vector Signal Generator

Pocketable RF signal source provides test signals with or without a PC connection, offering features comparable to full-size analog GHz signal generators

Fairport, NY: Saelig Company, Inc. announces the availability of Triarchy Technologies' VSG2G5C RF Vector Signal Generator - a cost-effective pocketable USB-connected RF signal source with capabilities that provide standalone and PC-controlled functions comparable to full-size analog RF signal generators. Offering frequencies from 100Hz to 1MHz (low-band) and 100MHz to 2.5GHz (RF Band) with a frequency resolution of 1Hz, this handy unit's features include frequency sweep, frequency hopping using I&Q modulation, and arbitrary signal generation.

This compact signal source can generate most of the modulated signals that RF engineers might need. The VSG2G5C's many test functions can be customized to meet the needs of proprietary and other nonstandard wireless protocols. The compact design makes it ideal for field test situations since it can be conveniently added to a field service kit and configured to operate standalone without any connected PC - just a 5V USB source or battery pack. The VSG2G5C RF Vector Signal Generator can also operate within automated test system designs as a signal source module, simulating many different RF systems for analysis.

With output levels up to 15dBm, signals can be delivered in CW, sweeping, and hopping modes. The unit features a built-in pulse generator for creating pulse modulation. The built-in arbitrary function generator adds the ability to generate a wide range of modulation modes, such as: I&Q modulation, AM, PM, FM analog, FSK, ASK, BPSK, MSK, GMSK, SFSK, as well as digital modulation schemes such as QPSK, 4FSK, 8PSK, QAM, and phase modulation types. A reference clock input and output capability is provided.

Compact (4" x 1" x 1") and housed in a lightweight 4oz metal case, the signal output is provided via an N connector, while the side-mounted miniature connectors provide I&Q input and output. A pulse output is available at the rear of the unit for synchronization purposes or when using the device as pulse generator. Intuitive PC software is supplied which depicts a simple desktop instrument front panel for adjustments and for setup.

Made by Triarchy Technologies Corp., an innovative Canadian RF design house, the VSG2G5C RF Vector Signal Generator is available now from Saelig Company, Inc. Fairport, NY, Triarchy's authorized US distributor. For detailed specifications, free technical assistance, or additional information, please contact Saelig at 1-888-7SAELIG, via email: info@saelig.com
