RF Synthesizers single channel platform
Holzworth's RF Synthesizers Modules were originally designed as the internal, tunable LO test sources for Holzworth phase noise analyzer products. Due to the need for easy integration, the HSM Series designs incorporate a long list of electrical and mechanical features to satisfy the demanding requirements of today's high performance communications systems and integrated test systems. FIELD PROVEN RELIABLITY with MTBFs exceeding 240 kHrs.
HSM Series: single channel modules
The Holzworth HSM Series RF Synthesizers are microwave CW sources that are architected on a non-PLL based platform.
The digital-analog hybrid design provides excellent phase noise performance and spurious response, which complement the phase coherent nature of these digital-analog hybrid signal sources.
The HSM Series offers several models that cover increasingly wider bandwidths so users can best match an application requirement while optimizing the price point.
