The E8257D-550 PSG analog signal generator covers a specified range of 250 kHz to 50 GHz with tunable operation from 100 kHz to 50 GHz. This extended millimeter-wave performance supports applications in 5G FR2 component validation, millimeter-wave radar development, and satellite communication subsystem testing.
From 3.2 to 15 GHz, the E8257D-550 provides +5 dBm specified with +18 to +21 dBm typical. From 15 to 30 GHz, specified power is +5 dBm with +14 to +16 dBm typical. At 30 to 50 GHz, output remains at +5 dBm specified with +11 to +14 dBm typical, maintaining usable power well into the millimeter-wave bands.
At 10 GHz carrier with Option UNX, the E8257D-550 achieves -49 dBc/Hz typical at 10 Hz offset, -91 dBc/Hz at 100 Hz, -107 dBc/Hz at 1 kHz, and -126 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz. Option UNY provides an additional mode with further close-in improvements, making the PSG one of the lowest phase noise sources available at these frequencies.
Yes, with Option 1E1 step attenuator, the E8257D-550 can generate signals as low as -110 dBm across its full frequency range. The step attenuator provides coarse attenuation in 10 dB steps, with fine power control via the ALC loop, enabling precise low-level signal generation for receiver sensitivity and selectivity measurements.
The E8257D-550 maintains broadband noise below -148 dBc/Hz typical from 10 MHz to 20 GHz at offsets greater than 10 MHz. From 20 to 40 GHz, broadband noise is less than -141 dBc/Hz typical. Above 40 GHz, it stays below -135 dBc/Hz typical, ensuring a clean noise floor for demanding receiver and system-level tests.
Yes, the E8257D-550 supports pulse modulation from 250 kHz to 50 GHz. The internal pulse modulator provides on/off ratios greater than 80 dB typical above 3.2 GHz. An optional internal pulse generator delivers pulse widths as narrow as 20 ns with rise and fall times of approximately 10 ns, suitable for radar and EW testing.
The E8257D-550 maintains SWR below 1.4:1 typical from 250 kHz to 2 GHz when internally leveled. From 2 to 20 GHz, SWR is less than 1.6:1 typical. At 20 to 40 GHz, SWR increases to 1.8:1 typical, and from 40 to 50 GHz it is 2.0:1 typical. These values apply with the step attenuator in auto mode.
The E8257D-550 maintains non-harmonic spurious levels of -80 dBc specified (-88 dBc typical) from 250 MHz to 1 GHz at offsets greater than 3 kHz. From 3.2 to 10 GHz, spurious is -62 dBc specified (-70 dBc typical). Above 40 GHz, non-harmonic spurious remains below -44 dBc specified (-52 dBc typical), suitable for spectral purity sensitive measurements.
