Agilent N5183B MXG and N5173B EXG signal generators

Wednesday, 08 January, 2014 | Supplied by: Keysight Technologies Australia Pty Ltd


Agilent Technologies has expanded its range of signal generators with two models. Complementing the company’s E8267D vector PSG and E8257D analog PSG, the N5183B MXG and N5173B EXG microwave analog signal generators provide important alternatives in size, speed and cost.

The N5183B MXG offers accuracy, efficiency and near-PSG performance in just two rack units. Its phase noise of less than -124 dBc/Hz (at 10 GHz, 10 kHz offset) and -75 dBc spurious enables module- and system-level testing up to 40 GHz, and accelerates the calibration of complex systems with a switching speed of less than 600 µs.

The N5173B EXG analog is a cost-effective choice when system developers need to balance budget and performance. Offering a combination of output power (+20 dBm at 20 GHz) and low harmonics (<-55 dBc), the EXG is well-suited to the characterisation of broadband microwave components such as filters and amplifiers. With low-cost coverage to 40 GHz, it also supports continuous-wave (CW) blocking for receiver testing or basic local-oscillator upconversion for point-to-point microwave backhaul links.
