Keysight / Agilent E8267D PSG Vector Signal Generator
The Keysight E8267D (Agilent) PSG Vector Signal Generator stands as the industry’s premier integrated microwave vector signal generator, delivering unparalleled I/Q modulation capabilities with a frequency range that extends up to 44 GHz. Designed to meet the rigorous demands of aerospace, defense, satellite communications, and broadband wireless applications, this advanced generator simplifies the creation of complex modulated signals.
At the core of the E8267D is its sophisticated wideband internal baseband generator, which supports flexible arbitrary waveform playback and cutting-edge real-time signal generation. This integrated functionality, unique to the E8267D PSG, ensures that engineers can efficiently produce and test modulated signals with remarkable accuracy.
This generator features a built-in wideband I/Q modulator capable of delivering a remarkable 2 GHz RF modulation bandwidth, providing an ideal complement to the Agilent N6030A stand-alone wideband arbitrary waveform generator for I/Q waveform simulations up to 1 GHz RF bandwidth. With the E8267D, users can fully customize the device to meet today’s RF and microwave testing requirements while enjoying the ease of future upgrades as needs evolve.
