Description
Generate continuous wave (CW) signals for LO substitution or swept stimulus response analysis. Optionally add AM, FM, ØM and/or pulse modulation to accurately characterize RF and microwave components and devices. Many performance enhancement options are also available to configure the signal generator to meet your specific test requirements. Tailor the Keysight (Agilent) E8257D PSG Analog Signal Generator, up to 67 GHz for today’s RF and microwave test applications and easily upgrade in the future as your needs change.
