40 GHz USB RF Synthesizer

The SYN0040A-U-MB is a compact, high-performance RF synthesizer designed for advanced microwave and millimeter-wave applications. Its wide frequency coverage, 1 Hz frequency resolution, programmable output power, and low-phase-noise architecture support research, development, production verification, and automated test systems.

Control the synthesizer through its USB Type-C connection using the graphical user interface (GUI), or integrate it into an automated test system through the API. Features include internal and external pulse modulation, frequency and power list modes, external reference clock input, and fast switching for local oscillator (LO) and measurement applications.
