The Rohde & Schwarz SPNH is a synthesized audio signal generator delivering precise, low-distortion signals across the audible spectrum. Operating from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, it generates sine and square waveforms with distortion as low as 0.03% (50 Hz to 100 kHz) and output levels spanning 4.25 mV to 42.5 V into 600 Ω. The instrument combines rapid 50 ms switching, microprocessor control, and flexible output impedance selection to meet exacting requirements in audio testing, R&D, and production environments.

– Key Features
• 5-digit digital frequency display
• 3-digit output level meter with unit conversion (mV, V, dBV, dBm) via button selection
• Keypad data entry with rotary knob for quasi-analog adjustment
• Memory storage for up to five complete instrument configurations (addresses 1–5)
• Microprocessor-controlled operation
