EcoSyn™ Lite Microwave Frequency Synthesizer

Anritsu's EcoSyn Lite MG36021A is a 10 MHz to 20 GHz CW Microwave frequency synthesizer module in a compact form factor with outstanding phase noise, ultra-fast switching speed and high output power. EcoSyn Lite's phase noise performance of -126 dBc/Hz (typical) at 10 GHz and 10 kHz offset is one of the best in its class. Along with non-harmonic spurious of -60 dBc (max), EcoSyn Lite can be used as a high purity clock source with low jitter for Gbit ADC/DAC testing and in high-speed optical systems. EcoSyn Lite's low phase noise both at close in and far off offsets and its robust output power of +18 dBm at 20 GHz makes it ideal for use as an LO for up/down converters in RF/microwave transceivers. These transceivers increasingly use complex and high order modulation signals which require LO’s with very low phase noise for up/down conversion.
