Technical notes
Reference reading on phase noise, switching speed, vector modulation, and choosing a source.
How to Choose a Signal Generator
Frequency range, phase noise, switching speed, channel count, and modulation, mapped to the right model.
Understanding Phase Noise
What single-sideband phase noise means, how it is specified, and why it sets receiver and clock-test limits.
Switching Speed and Frequency Agility
How switching time is measured and why microsecond hopping matters for ATE and frequency-hopping test.
Vector Modulation and I/Q
How I/Q vector modulation builds complex waveforms for 5G/6G, SATCOM, and MIMO test.
