Rohde & Schwarz SMATE200A Details

Rohde & Schwarz SMATE200A

Digital Standard EUTRA/LTE available

Based on the successful R&S SMU200A platform, the R&S SMATE200A is specifically designed for production environments. As such, the display and front panel user interface have been removed, the connectors moved to the rear, and performance has been optimized for fastest setting times to improve factory throughput. Like the R&S SMU200A, however, the two-generators-in-one concept has been kept, occupying four height units - a plus for production where space is at a premium. All of this is available without compromising the excellent RF performance and baseband flexibility synonymous with the R&S SMU200A.

Designed for production:

Very short setting times for frequency and level (e.g. for frequency changes <2 ms over GPIB and <400 in List mode)

Fast Hop mode offering flexibly addressable frequency/level pairs; as fast as normal List mode

Multisegment waveform function enables fast switching between different test signals in waveform generator

Special hardware triggers for basic functions

Electronic attenuator for entire frequency and level range

Status LEDs on front, connectors on rear

Revised cooling concept for longer life in production

Outstanding signal quality

Very low SSB phase noise (typ. 135 dBc/Hz at f = 1 GHz, 20 kHz offset; typ. 140 dBc/Hz with low phase noise option)

Wideband noise of typ. 153 dBc (>10 MHz carrier offset, f = 1 GHz, 1 Hz measurement bandwidth)

High output power of typ. +26 dBm with high-power output option

Very high level repeatability of typ. 0.05 dB

I/Q modulator with 200 MHz RF bandwidth

Excellent ACLR performance of typ. +70 dB with 3GPP FDD

Two signal generators in one

Up to two completely independent signal generators in one unit

Choice of 3 GHz or 6 GHz frequency options in one or two paths

Up to two independent baseband sources that not only support realtime signal generation but also offer arbitrary waveform generation with up to 128 Msamples each

Connectivity

Remote-controllable via LAN (Gigabit Ethernet) and GPIB

User-definable triggers and markers combined in one SCSI connector

USB connectors for keyboard, mouse

VGA connector for an external display
