Agilent / HP / Keysight 8620A
8620A SWEEP OSCILLATOR
Description
This is a signal generator mainframe, with more than 15 solid state plug ins available (sold separately), can provide >10mW of leveled output power from 3 to 18,000MHz.
It's plug in sweep bandwidths range from 3 to 350MHz to the wide band 2000 to 18,000MHz module.
With appropriate plug ins, four separate bands and their respective frequency scales can be selected.
Start Stop sweep points may be set from 1% to 100% of band, up or down scale, at sweep rates from 10 msec to 100 sec per sweep.
DeltaF sweeps, at the same rates, from 1% or 10% of band may also be made.
CW, continuous wave, makes the sweeper a signal generator, which may be modulated, or allows manual sweeps for frequency calibration.
Other sweep modes include automatic, manual, externally triggered, single sweep, and remotely programmed.
A marker, selected by the CW/Marker control, may be adjusted to any point on the band, and indicated by either amplitude or intensity.
