Keysight / Agilent N5173B EXG X-Series Microwave Analog Signal Generator, 9 kHz to 40 GHz

Keysight / Agilent N5173B EXG Analog Signal Generator

Introducing the Keysight N5173B EXG microwave analog signal generator—your ideal solution for balancing cost and performance without sacrificing capabilities. Designed for parametric testing across a range of applications including broadband filters, amplifiers, and receivers, this generator stands out in its class.

With coverage up to 40 GHz, the N5173B is equipped to perform essential tasks such as basic LO upconversion and CW blocking. Delivering impressive output power of +20 dBm at 20 GHz, it ensures optimal performance with low harmonic distortion measured at ≤ -55 dBc. This allows for precise characterization of microwave components, promising an unparalleled combination of specified output power, low harmonics, and full-step attenuation.

Versatile and robust, the Keysight N5173B can even simulate complex combinations of analog signals, providing a cost-effective alternative to vector microwave sources. Integrate the function generators with an internal pulse generator (Option UNW) for synchronous operations and advanced list sweep functionalities. This enables you to test receivers with intricate modulation techniques, such as frequency switching FM chirps, all while maintaining low drift in frequency and amplitude.
