New generator helps to accelerate wireless product development and manufacturing with wide output power range
Keysight has released two new analogue signal generators, an RF Analogue Signal Generator and a Microwave Analogue Signal Generator. These new products provide radio frequency (RF) engineers with portable and compact tools for component and device characterisation at frequencies up to 26 GHz.
RF engineers rely on signal generators to develop and test components and devices across consumer electronics, wireless networks and radar systems. These tools are essential for producing continuous waveform and analogue modulation signals during the design and testing process.
The new Keysight signal generators are a compact size and lightweight design for easy transport and efficient use of lab space. They have accurately levelled output power from -120 dBm up to +23 dBm, suitable for various RF and microwave applications.
In addition, they have low phase noise. Oven controlled crystal oscillator stabilised signal (phase noise -130 dBc/Hz at 1 GHz, 20 kHz offset) with mHz resolution ensures the measurement accuracy.
They have fast switching speed (down to 20 µs), which accelerates testing and boosts throughput as well as extensive modulation capabilities, which support amplitude modulation, frequency modulation, phase modulation, pulse modulation, pulse train and frequency chirps.
Joe Rickert, Vice President and General Manager, Keysight High Frequency Measurements Centre of Excellence, says, “The new RF Analogue Signal Generator and the new Microwave Analogue Signal Generator provide RF engineers with general purpose tools that deliver reliable signals with wide output power range, excellent signal purity and fast switching speed in a compact size for wireless communications, digital design and radar applications.”
