N5173B EXG X-Series Microwave Analog Signal Generator

OVERVIEW Balance budget and performance with the cost-effective EXG microwave analog signal generator If you need to balance budget and performance, the Keysight N5173B EXG Microwave Analog Signal Generator is a cost-effective choice. It provides the necessary signals for parametric testing of wideband filters, amplifiers, receivers, and more. With low cost and flexible frequency coverage (13, 20, 31.8, or 40 GHz), basic LO up-conversion or CW blocking tests can be performed. The combination of high output power (+20 dBm at 20 GHz), low harmonics (≤ -55 dBc), and full step attenuation makes it ideal for characterizing wideband microwave components such as filters and amplifiers. Use the standard high-performance OCXO with an aging rate of less than ±5 ppb/day to act as a high-stability system reference Taking into account both budget and performance, meeting the parametric testing needs of microwave components and receivers Perform parametric testing on microwave components and receivers Perform LO up-conversion for microwave backhaul links or CW blocking for receiver testing 600 µs frequency switching speed further improves test throughput Accurately characterize microwave filters and amplifiers with an unmatched combination of high output power, low harmonics, and full step attenuation Used as a reference for high stability systems: Standard high performance OCXO with an aging rate of 5x10-10 per day
