3016-1720-1200 Downconverter, 17-20 GHz to 1200 ±50 MHz

The 3016-1720-1200 Downconverter converts 17 to 20 GHz to 1200 ± 50 MHz in 125 kHz steps. The 17 to 20 GHz is first converted to 7.0 GHz with an agile, high side LO and then to 1200 MHz to obtain the wide tuning range. Synthesized local oscillators (LO) provide frequency selection. Multi-function switches select the input frequency, gain, and other parameters. Front panel LEDs provide indication of DC power, PLL alarm or Remote operation. Gain is adjustable manually (MGC) over a +10 to +30 dB range. The frequency and gain are remotely selectable. Parameter selection and frequency and gain settings appear on the LCD display. Connectors are Super SMA female for the RF, and BNC female for the IF and external 10 MHz reference input and output. Other connector options are available. It is powered by a 100-240 ±10%VAC power supply, and is in a 1 3/4” X 19” X 18” rack mount chassis.
