Used WAVETEK SAM 1000 #124144 for sale

WAVETEK SAM 1000 is an electronic test equipment designed to provide fast and reliable characterization of high frequency components and circuits such as filters, RF amplifiers, switches, and VCOs. It is a highly versatile Automatic Network Analyzer, equipped with a frequency range of up to 1000 MHz, a dynamic range of up to 80 dB, and a scan speed of 32 ms/point. The unit provides both measurement and synthesis capabilities and includes features such as fast settling and multiple scan averaging. SAM 1000 is made of a tabletop box containing two main components: the main unit and the receiver. The main unit includes an internal signal generator, a signal-chain analyzer, various voltage and current control modules, and a DB-37 connector for attaching the receiver and other accessories. The receiver, in turn, contains an RF amplifier, a mixer, and an A/D converter, as well as a USB interface. It also includes a logic-controlled VSWR calibrator that allows calibration of the RF amplifier's response. The unit is designed to measure and characterize high frequency components and circuits in a non-intrusive way. Its sophisticated signal-chain analyzer and multiple scan averaging capabilities allow quick and accurate characterization of various components and devices. Unlike other measurement tools, WAVETEK SAM 1000 does not require manual adjustments or alignment of components. Additionally, it does not generate any parasitic currents, thereby ensuring accurate measurements and reliable performance. SAM 1000 offers various analysis options including S-parameter, multiple termination, multiple port, polarimetric, and interconnect loss measurement. It is also equipped with a temperature chamber, allowing temperature-dependent measurements to be performed in-situ. Furthermore, the software suite provided with the unit includes a visual histogram analysis and an automatic self-alignment feature. WAVETEK SAM 1000 is an excellent choice for engineers and technicians who need to accurately characterize high frequency components and circuits. This rugged and compact unit offers fast, reliable, and non-invasive measurements, making it perfect for both laboratory and production applications. With its wide range of features and analysis capabilities, SAM 1000 is an essential addition to any serious test lab.
