1 Checking the Rated Characteristics
This performance test describes the steps for testing the R&S SMU Signal Generator family and the
installed options with respect to function and compliance with specifications.
The R&S SMU Signal Generator family comprises the following instruments:
Table 1-1 Vector Signal Generator Family
Instrument R&S Order No.
R&S SMU200A 1141.2005.02
R&S SMATE200A 1400.7005.02
R&S SMJ100A 1403.4507.02
In the following, the term DUT (Device Under Test) is used for any signal generator of this family.
All option names are abbreviated in such a way that only the extension is given. For example, option
R&S B106 denotes R&S B106, R&S B106 or B106 depending on the instrument.
The tests to be performed depend on the installed options. The values are given in the data sheet of the
respective instrument.
