gramming in Binary Coded Decimal (BCD). Naturally, a variety of
interfaces are optionally provided, including IEEE-488 and a userfriendly
keyboard.
This unique, interactive, modular architecture also allows for easy
configurations of OEM or specialized products.
The Best of Both Worlds
A keyboard-controlled version is available where manual control
makes sense. The 2200 provides all the performance of the submicrosecond
System Synthesizer and easy to use, incredibly clean,
bench synthesizers. The 2200 is like two synthesizers in one; a
microsecond 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 2200 for system development with the
convenience of keyboard entry of frequency increments and sweeps,
as well as IEEE-488 programming. With the flip of a switch, the 2200
becomes a BCD programmable microsecond frequency switching
synthesizer. Even if you do not need fast switching, the 2200 is one
of the lowest phase noise 18 GHz synthesizers available.
The 2200 provides programmable and keyboard controlled modulation
of AM and FM and 1 ěsec frequency switching up to 4 GHz.
OEM Configuration Guide
Aeroflex's modular architecture and iterative frequency plan makes it
ideally suited for custom OEM applications. Just two standard modules
make up a 10 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 environmental

The 2200 family of OEM Modular frequency synthesizers operates in the frequency range of
10 MHz to 18.4 GHz and offers sub-microsecond frequency switching speed and sub-microsecond
level correction, coupled with superb spectral purity.

2200 OEM Modular Synthesizer
The 2200 family of OEM Modular frequency synthesizers
operates in the frequency range of 10
MHz to 18.4 GHz and offers sub-microsecond
frequency switching speed and sub-microsecond
level correction, coupled with superb spectral
purity. With an installed base of more than a thousand
units supporting hundreds of sub-microsecond
switching and high spectral purity applications,
the 2200 family is a proven performer for a
diverse range of stringent applications. Extensive
work has been undertaken to provide superior
reliability of the 2200 as a result of reducing component
count and increasing automated production
techniques.
The 2200 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 reference
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 module which provides for doubling,
dividing or heterodyning 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 then to
18.4 GHz. The architecture also provides the additional
benefit of simplifying the user interface pro
