Mini-Circuits’ SSG-8N12GD-RC is a dual-channel wide-band signal generator operating from 8 to 12.5 GHz. With up to +23 dBm typical output power, it is an ideal signal source for characterization of millimeter wave components and systems at high power. Configure CW / single-tone outputs, flexible pulse sequences, AM, FM and Chirp modulations, or automated frequency / power sweep & hop sequences.

SSG-8N12GD-RC has been developed in a compact package with powerful software control and automation to provide a cost effective X-band signal generator and LO source for any bench or production test application. This is a high quality, repeatable and reliable signal source with low phase noise and excellent harmonic rejection.

The generator can be controlled via USB or Ethernet (supporting SSH, HTTP & Telnet protocols). Full software support is provided, including our user-friendly GUI application for Windows, flexible API and programming instructions for Windows and Linux environments. The daisy-chain control interface with “dynamic addressing” simplifies control integration and allows multiple units to be combined into a multi-channel signal source with control through a single software interface.
