The Keysight (Agilent) N5183A MXG Analog Signal Generator covers frequencies from 100 kHz to 20 GHz with a compact 2RU form factor. It offers ≤ 900 µs frequency switching (typically 600 µs), high output power up to +18 dBm at 20 GHz, and excellent phase noise of -98 dBc/Hz at 20 kHz offset. This makes it ideal for antenna tests and high-power device evaluations.
Supporting AM, FM, and pulse modulation with <10 ns pulse rise/fall time and 20 ns pulse widths, the N5183A includes digital and step sweep functions. Connectivity options include USB 2.0, GPIB, and 100BaseT LAN.
