CG50/500ML & MLA, 50 kHz - 30 MHz, 50 and 500 kHz Steps, Conducted Comb Generator

  • Broad verification coverage: 50 kHz to 108 MHz for conducted-emissions setups.
  • Radiated reference output from 50 kHz to 30 MHz when used with the monopole antenna.
  • Selectable 50 kHz and 500 kHz comb spacing for different receiver spans and measurement tasks.
  • Internal rechargeable battery supports portable use and reduces external-cable influence during checks.
  • 50 ohm BNC female output simplifies connection to common EMC measurement accessories.
  • Useful for daily or periodic chamber, receiver, cable, LISN, and accessory verification.

 Key selling points

  • Broad verification coverage: 50 kHz to 108 MHz for conducted-emissions setups.
  • Radiated reference output from 50 kHz to 30 MHz when used with the monopole antenna.
  • Selectable 50 kHz and 500 kHz comb spacing for different receiver spans and measurement tasks.
  • Internal rechargeable battery supports portable use and reduces external-cable influence during checks.
  • 50 ohm BNC female output simplifies connection to common EMC measurement accessories.
  • Useful for daily or periodic chamber, receiver, cable, LISN, and accessory verification.

 

Both models at a glance

Both models generate a stable harmonic reference with selectable 50 kHz or 500 kHz spacing. The main selection question is whether the laboratory needs conducted-emissions verification through a LISN or dual-antenna radiated verification with both a monopole and a loop.

 Recommended applications

Application How the CG50/500ML is used
Conducted emissions verification Inject a repeatable broadband reference through an AC or DC LISN to confirm the signal path, receiver response, and setup repeatability.
Radiated emissions verification Use the monopole antenna and ground plane for reference checks from 50 kHz to 30 MHz.
System troubleshooting Isolate changes in cables, attenuators, LISNs, receivers, adapters, or test configuration.
Routine quality checks Record reference traces and compare them over time to identify drift or unexpected setup changes.
Training and demonstrations Provide a visible, repeatable harmonic pattern for receiver setup and measurement-process training.
