I/Q Upconverters/Transmitters
-
In-phase quadrature (I/Q) upconverters integrate an I/Q mixer, RF amplifier, 90° hybrid, and an LO buffer in one package. These devices are used in transmitter applications to upconvert intermediate frequency (IF) to a desired radio frequency (RF) while reducing the need for filtering unwanted sideband.

SGMA Upconverter
SGU100A
-
The R&S®SGU100A SGMA upconverter offers a frequency extension to 40 GHz. When the R&S®SGS100A and the R&S®SGU100A are connected, they act as a single instrument for both remote control and manual operation. The combined instruments offer the same connections as the R&S®SGS100A: one RF output for the entire frequency range and one analog I/Q input for vector modulation. In this setup, tasks are automatically distributed between the two instruments so that users feel as if they are operating a single instrument.Equipped with the R&S®SGU100A, the R&S®SGS100A covers the entire frequency range from 10 MHz to 40 GHz without modulation, and from 80 MHz to 40 GHz with vector modulation.
