IFR/Marconi/Aeroflex 2041 Low Noise Signal Generator, 10 kHz to 2.7 GHz

The IFR/Aeroflex 2041 is a low noise signal generator covering the range of 10 kHz to 2.7 GHz. A dot matrix display with soft key selected screen options allow flexibility of operation and ease of use. The output may be amplitude, phase or frequency modulated with pulse modulation available as an option. Modulation is available using a combination of up to two external signal inputs and a built-in LF source (a second internal source is optional).

Microprocessor control ensures that the instruments are flexible and easy to use and allows programming by the General Purpose Interface Bus (GPIB). The GPIB is designed to IEEE Standard 488.2 and is a means of sending commands to an instrument, via a data bus, from a remote controller or personal computer. The instruments can therefore be used manually or as part of a fully automated test system.
