Abstract :
A compact RF and microwave stimulus module for broadband applications has been developed. The module covers a frequency bandwidth of 1800:1, slightly less than 11 octaves. The unit exhibits excellent rejection of unwanted signals, while providing leveled power output, automatic gain control, amplitude and square-wave modulation, and self-test features. The lightweight integrated multifunction package is efficient, reliable and reproducible.<>
