Key Features
- Produce varieties of signals from CW to analog and vector, with frequency coverage from 9 kHz to 3 or 6 GHz
- Produce standard-compliant wireless signals by playing back PathWave Signal Generation (Signal Studio) waveforms
- Internal baseband generator up to 120 MHz RF bandwidth; External I/Q inputs up to 200 MHz RF bandwidth
- SCPI command compatible with all other X-Series signal generators
- Fit for general purpose receiver sensitivity test, system-level component characterizations, and consumer electronics design and manufacturing test
