poweredThe PS6000L enables users to phaseshift an RF/Microwave signal in 0.5
degree increments easily and at low
cost. The RF device bandwidth extends
from 400 to 6000MHz, and phaseadjustment range covers the entire 180 to +180 degree range. ThePS6000L has a wideband active I/Q
modulator core resulting in a typicalpower output level of +10dBm. An
integrated step attenuator on the RFoutput allows for a 30dB range in0.25dB steps.

PS6000L (Rev 3) – An active
wideband RF phase shifterStand-Alone Control
Manual operation sets thePS6000L above the competition
with unparalleled flexibility. The
PS6000L can be easily controlledfrom its front panel interface
without a host system. Anystandard USB port including wallchargers, battery packs, laptops, ordesktops will provide sufficient
power.

USB Automated Operation
With the PS6000L connected to
any computer via micro USB port,
industry standard SCPI commands
can be used to fully control theinstrument. This USB virtual COM
port allows users to control thePS6000L for automated test
applications from many different
operating systems and scripting
languages and environments. No
extra drivers, or API knowledge isneeded.
