Highlights
Test Your R&D Device and System Within and Beyond Its Limits
On the path to better performance, the Keysight's MXG signal generators are fine-tuned signal sources in R&D measurements. Whether you’re pushing for a linear RF chain or an optimized link budget, the analog and vector MXG models deliver the performance and capabilities you need: phase noise, ACPR, channel coding, and more.
- Address the demanding tests requirements of radar modules and systems with excellent phase noise
- Keep pace with the latest data throughput in LTE-Advanced and 802.11ac WLAN with 160 MHz bandwidth and EVM down to 0.4%
- Drive power amplifiers and characterize nonlinear power amplifier behavior with industry-leading ACPR and output power
- Accelerate your calibration process with switching speeds of less than 600 us
