fs2000 series fast switching synthesizer supports hundreds of fast switching, high spectral purity applications. features: ? ultra-fast switching <1 sec ? wide and narrow band ? exceptionally clean ? an ideal source for: simulators radar rcs ew ate systems subsystems description: the fs-2000 family of frequency synthesizers operate in the frequency of 1 mhz to 18.4 ghz and offer submicrosecond frequency switch - ing speed, and submicrosecond level correction, coupled with superb spectral purity. with an installed base supporting hundreds of submicrosecond switching and high spectral purity applications, the fs-2000 family are prov - en performers for a diverse range of stringent applications. introduced in 1986, fs-2000 frequency synthesizers incorporate the most significant advances in frequency synthesizer technology and are based on aeroflexs patented wideband direct analog synthesis techniques. the technology has been constantly refined and enhanced so that today the family comprises more than thirty models and a host of options which assure that your application has a reliable, proven, signal source. aeroflexs fs-2000 is the most significant advance in frequency synthesizer technology in over 10 years. it is the first synthesizer to combine ultra fast switching, low phase noise, and low spurious over a wide frequency range. aeroflexs patented method achieves direct analog synthesis over an octave range. this combined with extensive hybrid - ization enables the fs-2000 to be packaged in 1/3 the size of previous synthesizers. in addition, built-in fault isolation and modular construction reduce mttr (mean time to repair). interchangeability and commonality of boards and modules minimize spare parts requirements. fs-2000 fre - quency synthesizers have uncompromising perform - ance. switching speed is specified simply; less than 1 usecond between any two frequencies with any resolution- no ifs, ands, or buts. close-in spectral purity is virtually that of the frequency reference, multiplied to the output frequency, while far-out noise decreases monoton - ically to the floor. no phase-locked loops, no complicated schemes. just simple, direct and reliable. the fs-2000 is based on an iterative, modular direct analog architecture with a central reference generator that synthesizes 50, 100, 150, 200 and 800 mhz signals from a 100 mhz refer - ence derived by multiplying a 5 or 10 mhz reference oscillator appropriately and improving far-out noise by judicious filtering. all frequencies are derived in an iterative frequency generation architecture. frequencies are generated as a decade of frequency steps over an octave from 500 mhz inputs to the next stage. final outputs are produced by a scaling mod - ule which provides for doubling, dividing, or hetero - dyning to achieve a range of 10 mhz to 2.3 ghz. units which have extended frequency ranges use an additional scaling module which doubles to 4.6 ghz, and again to 9.2 and 18.4 ghz. the architecture also provides the additional benefit of simplifying the user interface programming in binary coded decimal (bcd). naturally, a variety of interfaces are optionally provided, including ieee-488 and a user friendly keyboard. this unique, interactive, modular architecture also allows for easy configurations of oem or specialized products. signal & control sol utions phone: (732) 460-0212, fax: (732) 460-0214 www.aeroflex.com/ascs, email: ascs-sales@aeroflex.com revision date: 8/21/2013
2 fs2000 series fast switching synthesizer best of both worlds the fs-2000b and keyboard controlled units provide all the performance of the sub-microsecond system synthesizer and easy to use, incredibly clean, bench synthesizers. the fs-2000b is like two synthesizers in one; a 1 usec switching computer controlled system synthesizer, and an ieee-488 programmable keyboard entry bench synthesizer with extensive sweep and synchronization capability. you can conveniently use the fs-2000 for system development with the convenience of keyboard entry of frequency increments and sweeps, as well as ieee-488 fs-2000-18, fs-2000b-9, fs2000b-4, fs-2000b-2 programming. with the flip of a switch, the fs-2000b becomes a bcd program - mable 1 usec switching synthesizer. even if you do not need fast switching, the fs-2000b-18 is one of the lowest phase noise 18 fhz synthesizers available. the fs-2000 provides programmable and keyboard controlled modulation of am and fm, and 1 usec frequency switching us to 4 ghz. the fs-2000c is also a pin-for-pin replacement for the eaton/ailtech 382/384m, with substantially improved perform - ance and reliability. signal & control sol utions aerofex signal & control solutions www.aerofex.com/ascs ? acc-sales@aerofex.com revision date: 8/21/2013

4 switching speed: the fs-2000 switches between any two frequencies. 50 mhz-18.4 ghz in less than 1 msec. the switch - ing time is measured: from the time the fs-2000 receives a strobe command to switch until the phase dector output shows arrival at new frequency. the fs-2000 is unique: the larger the step, the faster the switching speed: with 1 ghz steps and larger, typically switching in less than 250 nsec. phase noise: the fs-2000 provides sub-microsecond switch - ing and superior phase noise performance. the absolute phase noise curve below shows the actual output which includes the noise contribution of the internal 10 mhz standard. the residual phase noise of the fs-2000 is also shown below. this indicates that if a lower noise external reference (5 mhz, 10 mhz or 100 mhz) is used, the phase noise theoretically can approach the residual phase noise of the fs-2000. oem configuration guide: aeroflexs modular architec - ture and iterative frequency plan makes it ideally suited for custom oem applications. just two standard modules make up a 50 mhz - 2.3 ghz, 100 mhz resolution oem synthesizer with the same specifications as the standard family, needing only dc power and frequency reference. to obtain finer resolution and/ or wider frequency coverage, just add the appropriate standard modules. factory assistance is available to help you configure an oem synthesizer which best meets your electrical or environ - mental specifications. modularity for custom configurations shock and vibration mounting available signal & control sol utions aerofex signal & control solutions www.aerofex.com/ascs ? acc-sales@aerofex.com revision date: 8/21/2013
