E8257D PSG Analog Signal Generator Features

The E8257D PSG includes the following standard features:

a source module interface that is compatible with Agilent 83550 Series millimeter–wave source
modules for frequency extension up to 110 GHz and Oleson Microwave Labs (OML) AG–Series
millimeter–wave modules for frequency extensions up to 325 GHz

automatic leveling control (ALC) on and off modes; power calibration in ALC–off mode is
available, even without power search

CW output from 250 kHz to the highest operating frequency, depending on the option

external diode detector leveling

frequency resolution to 0.001 Hz

list and step sweep of frequency and amplitude, with multiple trigger sources

optimized signal to noise ratio

10 MHz reference oscillator with external output

RS–232, GPIB, and 10Base–T LAN I/O interfaces

user flatness correction

attenuator burnout protection (with Option 521 instruments that have Option 1E1)

The E8257D PSG also offers the following optional features:

NOTE

To provide analog frequency sweeps and for optimum swept scalar measurements with the
8757D scalar analyzer, the E8257D requires 007 (analog ramp sweep).

Option 007—analog ramp sweep

Option 008

1

—8 GB removable compact flash drive

Option 521—ultra high output power, frequency range from 0.1- 20 GHz

Option 1E1—step attenuator

Option 1EA (Discontinued)—high output power

Option 1ED—Type–N female RF output connector

Option 1EH —improved harmonics below 2 GHz

Option 1EU—high output power (standard with E8267D)

Option 1EM—moves all front panel connectors to the rear panel

Option 1SM—provides improved performance in Exponential (Log) AM mode

Option UK6—commercial calibration certificate and test data

Option UNR (Discontinued)—enhanced phase noise performance
