N5173B-540 9 kHz – 40 GHz EXG Analog signal generator, 2.4 mm (m)

The Keysight N5173B-540 EXG microwave analog signal generator offers outstanding output power, low harmonics, and full step attenuation, with no compromise to performance. It is designed to be a performance-driven and economical choice. Compact at two rack units, the N5173B-540 provides the essential signals that address parametric testing of broadband filters, amplifiers, receivers, and more. 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.
