Hameg HM8135 3 GHz RF-Synthesizer

The HAMEG HM8135 3.0GHz RF-Synthesizer is an exceptional RF-Synthesizer combining high performance with fast and easy operation. It has excellent specifications, including such characteristics as high frequency stability, fast frequency change response time, spectral purity, and repeatable signal output levels.

The HAMEG HM8135 provides continuous frequency selectable from as low as 1Hz up to 3.0GHz, with optional gated mode. This wide range covers the most commonly needed spectrum of audio, video, and IF frequencies, as well as the RF frequencies used by receivers and transmitters in a wide variety of communication systems. The frequency resolution of 1Hz allows convenient incremental settings in narrow band systems.

The instrument offers amplitude, frequency, phase and gated modulation. Internally generated sine, square, triangle and ramp signals are available for internal AM, FM and PM modes over a wide frequency range.

The generator frequency, output level, and modulation parameters are all clearly displayed on a LCD providing all relevant information at a glance. The HM8135 was designed with the thought of operational ease and productivity in mind. Menu driven operation gives clear, up front information at every stage. Parameters are either set via the rotary dial or by the front panel keypad. A maximum of ten frequently used instrument settings can be stored in a non volatile memory. HAMEG Instruments are well known for oscilloscopes and test equipment for more than 50 years.
