Highlights
Balance budget and performance with the cost-effective EXG microwave analog signal generator
N5173B EXG microwave analog signal generator is the cost-effective choice when you need to balance budget and performance.
It provides the essential signals that address parametric testing of broadband filters, amplifiers, receivers, and more. Perform basic
LO up conversion or CW blocking with low-cost coverage to 13, 20, 31.8, or 40 GHz. Characterize broadband microwave components
such as filters and amplifiers with the best combination of output power (+20 dBm at 20 GHz), low harmonics (≤ –55 dBc), and full
step attenuation. Use as a high-stability system reference with standard high-performance OCXO at an aging rate of less than ± 5 parts per billion per day.
▶Balance budget and performance to address parametric testing of microwave components and receivers.
▶Address parametric testing of microwave components and receivers.
▶Perform LO up conversion for microwave backhaul links or CW blocking for receiver testing.
▶Maximize test throughput with 600-µs frequency switching.
▶Characterize microwave filters and amplifiers with the best combination of output power, low harmonics,
and full-step attenuation.
▶Use as a high-stability system reference: the standard high-performance OCXO has an aging rate of
5x10-10 parts / day.
