Highlights
E8257D PSG Analog Signal Generator
The Keysight E8257D is a fully-synthesized signal generator with high output power, low phase noise, and modulation capability. Specifications apply over a 0 to 55 °C range, unless otherwise stated, and apply after a 45 minute warm-up time. Supplemental characteristics, denoted as typical, nominal, or measured, provide additional (non-warranted) information at 25 °C, which may be useful in the application of the product.
Take on your toughest test requirements with metrology-grade frequency and level accuracy, excellent distortion, and spurious characteristics
Measure across a wide frequency range: 13, 20, 31.8, 40, 50, and 67 GHz models available (1.1 THz with frequency extender)
Test high-power devices and overcome test system losses with options capable of generating up to 1 W (+30 dBm) of output power
Get extremely low phase noise: –91 dBc/Hz at 100 Hz offset and –126 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset (10 GHz), to address Doppler radar, ADC and receiver-blocking tests
Characterize devices and circuits by adding AM, FM, PM and pulse modulation to your signal
Modular upgrades allow extension of frequency range, output power, and functionality as requirements grow
Optimized for radar, satellite, wireless communications, and component characterization
Compatible with Keysight software and automation tools for efficient test workflows
