Extremely Fast Switching
In today’s world, time is a crucial factor, whether in design, on the production floor or inside ATE systems. With a switching speed of less than 100•µs, Tabor’s All-New Lucid Series ensures maximum measurements at minimum time, setting the industry’s highest throughput standard.

Signal Integrity and Purity
One of the most important requirement in today’s testing and measurement applications is high signal quality. With a typical SSB phase noise of -145dBc at 100MHz, and -132dBc at 1GHz, at 10 kHz carrier offset, Tabor’s All-New Lucid Series platform delivers one of the best quality signals available on the market today, answering the ever-growing demand for clear and precise signals.

Multiple Ways to Control the Unit and Write Your Code
Tabor’s Lucid Series comes with its own dedicated software to control the instrument functions, modes and features via a graphical user interface (GUI) as well as a complete set of drivers, allowing you to write your application in various environments including Labview, Python, CVI, C++, VB and MATLab. You may also link the supplied dll to other Windows-based API’s or use low-level SCPI commands to program the instrument, regardless of whether your application is written for Windows, Linux or Macintosh operating systems.

Modulation Schemes
Signal bursts and chirps have become common need in the daily life of any Aerospace or Defence application. With Tabor’s All-New Lucid Series, any pulse modulation is possible, no matter if its “narrow” or “standard” pulse need. On top of its outstanding pulse modulation performance, the Lucid Series is also equipped with many CW interferers, and modulated signals such as AM, FM, PM and Sweep.

Multi-channel, phase coherent, benchtop generator
Many test systems and experimental setups require multiple RF channels, either separate or synchronized. The new Lucid series benchtop platform offers up to 4, separate or phase coherent, RF outputs in a single, 2U, ¾ 19” box, saving up to 4 times that space compared to available benchtop solutions on the market. Tabor’s all-new Lucid series benchtop version saves both valuable bench or rack space and investment capital without compromising performance.

Easy to use

Tabor’s Lucid series benchtop platform offers a 5” touch screen with user friendly GUI to quickly and easily generate the required signal, while displaying all the necessary critical information to the user. For remote control, the series is equipped with Ethernet and USB interface enabling remote programming from PC.
