Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator with Sweep

The Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator is a radio frequency generator optimised for carrier wave applications that do not require modulation. This cost-effective, ergonomic and easy-to-use RF generator features a frequency range of 10MHz to 6000MHz, flexible sweep modes, a Trim function and USB, RS-232, GPIB and LAN (Ethernet) remote control interfaces.

In addition to this, the Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator provides low phase noise, low leakage, low residual FM and spurii. It has an accuracy of better 1ppm over 15°C to 30°C, and an internal timebase with a 1ppm stability over one year. Furthermore, to improve precision the Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator can be used with an external frequency reference.

Flexible Sweep Modes

The Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator includes an advanced stepped sweep system which enables frequency and amplitude to be swept. The flexibility and adaptability of this system means the Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator can meet the requirements of a majority of test patterns as it can generate changes in frequency and amplitude.

Sweeps can be configured to include start and stop frequency/ amplitude points with linear or logarithmic interpolation between these values. It is possible to set between 2 and 1000 interpolation points with dwell times of between 10ms and 10s.

Using an internal timer or a remote interface, sweeps can be triggered manually. Alternatively, it is possible to trigger sweep points using a trigger event rather than a fixed time. For instance, when the Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator is placed in List Sweep mode, the sweep is defined by a table of up to 1000 frequency or amplitude points that are stepped between using either trigger events or dwell times for each point.

It is possible to store up to sixteen sweep lists within the Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator’s memory. These lists can be entered via the Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator's panel; alternatively, they can be created on a PC and downloaded via one of the RF generator’s interfaces.

Internal Memory

The Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator’s internal memory has the capacity to store up to twelve complete instrument setups and up to sixteen sweep lists. Both the setups and sweep lists can be saved under user-specified names.

Trim Function/ User Compensation Table

The Trim function adjusts the Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator’s output level to calibrate an entire test set up.

Using a list of user-programmed amplitude adjustment/ frequency pairs, the Trim function will alter the output level by an amount linearly interpolated between the frequencies in the list. Up to one-hundred amplitude adjustment/ frequency pairs can be entered into the Trim function list.

Easy to Use

Frequency and amplitude can be configured using either the Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator’s keypad, spin wheel or up and down keys.

The Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator’s keypad allows the user to enter the frequency and/or amplitude’s exact numerical value. The Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator supports amplitude entry in dBm, µV/ mV and dBµV.  

Alternatively, the Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator’s up and down keys or spin wheel can be used to alter frequency or amplitude level in user-defined increments.

In addition to this, the Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator features soft keys for setting up complex functions such as sweep tests.

Data is displayed on the Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator’s four-line display.

Full Remote Control

In addition to manual operation, the Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator supports full remote control via USB, RS-232, GPIB and LAN (Ethernet) interfaces.

Ergonomic

This economical and easy-to-use RF generator for carrier wave applications is contained within a 2U-high, half-rack width case. As a result, the Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator takes up minimal bench space. The Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator can be mounted using an OPTIONAL rack mounting kit.

The Aim-TTi TGR6000 6GHz RF Signal Generator is an inexpensive, ergonomic and easy-to-use RF generator optimised for carrier wave applications.
