tinySA Ultra Signal Generator functionality

This video demonstrates the extensive RF signal generator functionality available in the tinySA Ultra.

Thanks for pointing these limitations out. I am still amazed when I turn mine on and find out how much it can do. I haven't used the generator for anything yet. I had no idea it would appear that accurate, relatively clean, and go below -100 dBm without an external attenuator.

This is fantastic. Thanks for all the work developing this! I have two of the original versions (one for SA and one for sig-gen). This is an amazing upgrade and plan to get one (or two :-) ) of these now also.

Pretty damned impressive for a $200 machine!
I'm really surprised how accurate the RF generator level output is..
Looks like I'm going to have to purchase one for the field tool kit :)

very interesting and I just ordered a tinySA Ultra signal generator to use on setting up a SDR 21cm 1420 MHz radio telescope backyard hobby project. 😎 thank you.

Very nice…mine will only go down to -76dBm at 100 MHz

[r.w.]

I have a question. if I set the span on the sweep generator to 500kHz, will it be -250 to +250 around the generator setpoint? or + 0 to +500khz to the set value?

My Tiny SA Ultra puts out a generator signal way lower than expected. As I keep reducing the output level, at some point it starts to get stronger on the connected receiver before disappearing below the noise way sooner than expected. I have tried it on several different receivers with the same result. I don't have another SA I can use to actually measure the output power level.

In the previous model, the VHF band was of good quality, but from 400mhz onwards, I did not feel such a reliable reading of the spectrum, considering that it was provided free of charge. In this “ultra” model, is there a quality in the reading of the entire spectrum, up to about 800Mhz, as happened in the previous model in readings below 300mhz?

Just the perfect video I was looking for. Thanks!

And you get all this for the price of a set of good cables ! 😁
Great!
Mine is on the way, hopefully

I had no idea the signal generator on tiny sa is this good

You show the screen reversed on the tinySA Ultra ? A new feature ? [ btw., my tinySA Ultra is on it's way to me :-) ] 73s OE1MWW

Just got my Ultra and really like it, however I was misinformed that the Ultra had TG capabilities (for filter sweeps).
Would be nice if a couple of TinySA's could be somehow linked (trigger I/O etc.) so that they could together do TG measurements.
Still happy with both the TinySA and NanoVNA in that they give accessibility previously unavailable at low cost.
Thanks & 73

-18dbm is the TinySA Ultra highest output that are valid under 1Ghz, so its more or less secure to hook up to most thing unattenuated when it max can supply -18dbm and got no DC.
where the TinySA peaked at -6dbm in low and up around +13dbm in high If I recall on its signal out mode.

Great product, but this ultra model is not longer available at Zeenko Store …

[arnaldojunior]

in the tinySA Ultra the UHF filter is still of low quality?

[marcinmakan]

HI Erik, would it be possible to update the AM so that it is possible to modulate a signal which is in MHz area with a very low signal that is in the area of 10Hz only? Currently this is not possible…

[GZQCArtwork]

My question is, Can it be made possible to inject AM or FM Modulation from an external source.?

[mariovano]

Great work! I can't wait to get one! Has the frequency granularity improved as well?

[wilsmit]

Is de firmware van de Ultra te upgraden via de tinySA App ?
