DSTG6000, A Generic Tracking
Signal Generator
The TG6000 enables users togenerate a tracking signal >6GHz
using their Spectrum Analyzer (SA).
Preprogrammed settings support alarge number of existing SA s. In
addition it is possible for the user toconfigure the instrument for otheranalyzers using the provided PC
software and USB interface. TheTG6000 covers the fundamental
band (Band0) and Band1 of theusers SA.

Ease of Use
The user connects the Spectrum
Analyzers 1st LO and its 10MHz tothe TG6000. Selection of SA Modelis done by rear panel rotaryswitches. A TG signal is now activeat the TG OUT port of theinstrument. With the users DUT
inserted between the TG output andthe SA input the DUT frequency
response is automatically traced onthe users SA display. No PC isneeded to operate the TG6000 asa tracking signal source.

Signal Generator Operation
The TG6000 can operate as abroad band RF signal generator
with the output frequency
controlled via rear panel USB
port. The SG output is fully
synthesized and locked to theapplied or internal 10Mhz
reference. A provided Software
application allows the user to set
the frequency of the SG OUT
port. Frequency output covers
from 25MHz to 6.0 GHz.
The USB port is configured asa virtual COM port which
supports industry standard SCPI
commands for frequency andlevel.
