New Programmable Lab Bricks Dropping
at IMS 2017
Newburyport, MA – June 2, 2017 -
Vaunix, a leading
developer of programmable wireless test devices, will be introducing their latest
attenuators and signal generator in the 5G/IoT Pavilion at booth #848 at IMS 2017
in Honolulu, Hawaii, June 6th-8th.
Capable of bidirectional fixed attenuation, swept attenuation ramps, and fading
profiles, the Vaunix LDA-602Q 4 port programmable attenuator provides up to 120 dB
of control range with a 0.1 dB step size from 200 MHz to 6 GHz. Each
of 4 RF ports of this device has a 50 ohm impedance with VSWR less than 1.3:1.
Fast switching speeds of 15 us can be expected. The LDA-602Q unit is compact,
fitting into a single standard rack unit with well-spaced 50 ohm SMA female
connectors for each RF port. Additionally, the only power and control connection
is from a standard USB type-B female. Price is $2,900.
The LDA-602EH attenuator has a large attenuation range of 120 dB with an
exceptional 0.1 dB step size, allowing for both precision and accuracy during
fading tests or device characterizations. This attenuator also features a fast 15 us
switching speed, an operating temperature from -30°C to 50°C, a maximum RF input
of +28 dBm, and is priced at $875. The LDA602-EH operates with a low insertion
loss of 9 dB to 6 GHz, an input IP3 of +55 dBm and a typical VSWR
of 1.3:1. 4-port programmable devices are coming soon.
The LMS-183DX 6-18 GHz Signal Generator Offers up to 80 dB of power
control range. This unit typically operates with a voltage stand wave ratio (VSWR)
at 1:4:1 (2.0:1 maximum) and weighs less than one pound. Maximum harmonics are -25 dBc
(-38 dBc typically) when the LMS-183DX is set to +10 dBm output power.
The LMS-183DX is controlled and powered through USB with advanced features such
as phase-continuous linear-frequency sweeping, internal/external 10 MHz reference,
and optional pulse modulation. Price is $3,499.

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling
2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed
formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit
design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at
the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps
while tying up your telephone line, and a lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail"
when a new message arrived...
