HSM12001B HSM18001B 12.5GHz/20GHz RF Synthesizer Modules o Pl Rz ODUCT SUMMARY The Holzworth HSM Series RF Synthesizer Module is a stand alone, CW source. This high frequency source is designed for ease of system integration where LO performance is critical. With >200k Hr MTBF, Holzworth synthesizers provide the best in industry stability. When integrated as multiple units, the result is true phase coherency with industry leading channelto-channel stability. pare the HSM Series to petitive designs and discover the most pact form factor available in its overall performance class. The core architecture of the HSM Series modules is derived from Holzworth’s proprietary NON-PLL design to provide the ultimate in phase / frequency stability. This direct-digital/direct-analog hybrid design was originally developed as a key building block for our phase noise analysis products. The hybrid architecture provides frequency agility & resolution, phase continuous switching and predictable performance without promising on spurious or phase noise performance. HSM EXTENDED FREQUENCY OPTIONS: Model No. Frequency Range Phase Noise Performance HSM12001B HSM18001B 10MHz to 12.5GHz 10MHz to >20GHz -110 d Bc/Hz at 12GHz (10k Hz offset) -106 d Bc/Hz at 18GHz (10k Hz offset) Note: Holzworth’s “Ultra Low Phase Noise” statement is real. We make no assumptions. 100% of all RF synthesizers manufactured by Holzworth Instrumentation are subjected to full phase noise evaluation. (This critical parameter cannot be accepted as being “OK” based on spectrum analysis or an alternate test.) The versatile HSM Series Synthesizer Module can be controlled directly via the SPI bus, the Holzworth GUI, a preloaded lookup table, Lab VIEWTM, MATLABTM, C++, C#, etc. Some systems integrators have preferred the supported Linux platform over a Windows based PC. The attractive performance-to-price ratios available with the Holzworth HSM Series offers optimal solutions for electronics design, manufacturing test...
