Agilent / HP / Keysight E8267D
E8267D PSG Vector Signal Generator, 100 kHz to 44 GHz
Description
This unit is the industry's first integrated microwave vector signal generator with I/Q modulation up to 44GHz. It features an advanced wideband internal baseband generator capable of flexible arbitrary waveform playback or sophisticated real-time signal generation. The PSG also has a built-in wideband I/Q modulator that delivers up to 2 GHz RF modulation bandwidth and is a perfect complement to N6030A stand-alone wideband arbitrary waveform generator for I/Q waveform simulations up to 1 GHz RF bandwidth. This groundbreaking integrated vector functionality, only available in the E8267D PSG, drastically simplifies the generation of complex modulated signals for design and manufacturing test applications in aerospace, defense, satellite communications, and broadband wireless.
Key Points
Broad frequency ranges: 250 kHz to 20, 31.8, or 44 GHz with .001 Hz resolution
High output power - typical performance of +22 dBm at 20 GHz and +18 dBm at 40 GHz with excellent level accuracy
World-class SSB phase noise - typical performance of -115 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset from 10 GHz carrier
Wide RF modulation bandwidth - 160 MHz (standard) extendable up to 2 GHz using external I/Q inputs
Flexible digital & analog modulation - FSK, MSK, PSK, QAM, custom I/Q, AM, FM, ØM, and pulse
Multiple high rate sweep modes - step, list, & ramp sweep frequency and power
Advanced internal baseband generator - arbitrary I/Q waveform playback and real-time I/Q symbol generation with 80 MHz RF modulation bandwidth.
Wideband (1 GHz) waveform generator - use Agilent's N6030A arbitrary waveform generator to deliver high fidelity I/Q waveforms to the PSG's wideband external I/Q inputs for carrier frequencies to 44 GHz.
Signal creation software - generate radar test signals, multi-tone, noise power ratio, custom modulation, and more
Connectivity - remote control over 10BaseT LAN and GPIB using SCPI and IVI-COM drivers
External control using PSA Series spectrum analyzer – scalar network analysis capability when combined with any PSA with external source control option.
Backwards compatible - same form factor and completely code compatible with previous PSG signal generators
