It features high-quality microwave components and precision engineering to ensure minimal signal degradation and accurate frequency output. The 86720A supports various modulation formats and can handle a range of signal types, making it ideal for advanced RF and microwave testing applications. Its compact design allows for easy integration into existing test setups, and it is built to meet rigorous performance standards, ensuring consistent and reliable operation in demanding testing environments.
Specifications
- Frequency Extension: The 86720A Frequency Extension Unit extends the frequency range of compatible signal generators. The specific frequency range extension will depend on the base signal generator it is used with.
- Frequency Accuracy: Like the base signal generator, the 86720A unit is designed to maintain high frequency accuracy, often specified in parts per million (ppm) or Hertz (Hz).
- Output Power: It provides adjustable output power levels, allowing you to control the power of signals generated at higher frequencies.
- Modulation Capabilities: The extension unit typically inherits the modulation capabilities of the base signal generator, which can include amplitude modulation (AM), frequency modulation (FM), phase modulation (PM), and other modulation types.
- Output Impedance: The output impedance is typically matched to 50 ohms to ensure compatibility with RF devices and circuits.
- Harmonic and Spurious Signal Levels: The 86720A aims to maintain low harmonic and spurious signal levels, specified in dBc (decibels relative to the carrier).
- Spectral Purity: Like the base signal generator, it is designed to provide excellent spectral purity with low phase noise and distortion.
- User Interface: The unit often has a user-friendly interface, compatible with the base signal generator’s interface, making it easy to set and control signal parameters.
- Connectivity: It typically connects to the base signal generator using appropriate cables and connectors, maintaining the existing connectivity options provided by the base unit.
