Description:
Fluke's 9640A RF reference source is a high-precision RF signal generator, mainly used for calibrating and testing RF equipment, especially widely applied in metrology laboratories, communication equipment manufacturing and maintenance fields.
Features:
It provides a reference output of 10 MHz, with typical frequency stability of ±1×10⁻⁸/year (external reference synchronization required).
Low phase noise, suitable for applications with high requirements for signal purity.
The output frequency range typically covers 50 kHz to 1 GHz or higher (depending on the model configuration), supporting modulation functions such as sine wave, amplitude modulation (AM), and frequency modulation (FM).
It can accept external reference signals (such as rubidium clocks or GPS-based tamed clocks) to further enhance long-term stability.
It is suitable for calibrating RF instruments such as spectrum analyzers, power meters, and frequency meters, and supports traceability in international standards such as NIST.
Industrial-grade design, suitable for laboratory and on-site use.
Application:
Metrology laboratory: Serves as a secondary standard for calibrating other radio frequency equipment.
Communication base station maintenance: Verify the performance of base station transmitters and receivers.
Military industry and aerospace: Radio Frequency testing in high-reliability environments.
Educational research and development: RF circuit design and testing.
