VSG Delivers 40 MHz of Real-Time Streaming Bandwidth
Signal Hound's latest 20-GHz vector signal generator (VSG), the VSG200, provides 40 MHz of real-time streaming bandwidth, expanding the VSG series and unlocking access to higher frequency ranges. With its updated features, the VSG200 delivers the performance and versatility of an enterprise-grade vector signal generator to a broad range of users — a high-performance test and measurement device capable of generating any signal type.
The company also made a major update to its VSG software, with an updated UI redesign, live plotting, support for SigMF file types, the ability to export waveforms, and more. The VSG200 can be utilized in a diverse range of applications, such as:
- General-purpose RF test & measurement and signal generation
- Arbitrary RF waveform generation
- Pulse/FM chirp generation
- Amplifier EVM testing
- CCDF
- Channel characterization
- Wi-Fi/Bluetooth testing
- Manufacturing test
- Receiver testing with signal impairments
- Antenna pattern measurement
The compact device weighs 2.1 lbs. (0.95 kg) and measures 8.00 x 5.14 x 1.41 in. (203 x 131 x 36 mm). Operating temperature ranges from 32 to 122°F (0 to +50°C).
