Featuring high reliability and high power, all in two rack units (2RU), Agilent MXG analog is optimized to provide the accurate and repeatable reference signals needed from the R&D bench to the production line. MXG analog delivers the most value for your manufacturing investment by increasing throughput, maximizing uptime, and saving rack space. With scalable RF performance, the Agilent MXG analog is easily confi gured to meet your specific test needs, including LO and clock substitution, CW interferers, and modulated signals for analog communication systems such as AM, FM, and phase modulation.

The Agilent N5181AEP MXG analog RF signal generator Express Configuration provides excellent value and the fastest delivery of the most popular MXG configurations. Created to get necessary RF tools into your hands more quickly, the express configurations provide the performance of an MXG signal generator delivered RIGHT NOW. And as your needs change, you can quickly optimize your test with the MXG's additional options.

Fast and accurate analog signal generation

Time is critical on the component manufacturing floor. With industry-leading frequency and amplitude switching speeds, the Agilent MXG analog signal generator allows you to reduce test times and maximize throughput. And a flexible option structure lets you scale the Agilent MXG to meet your performance needs from design through production.

Agilent MXG provides the performance required for analog applications ranging from local oscillator substitution to receiver test. It is an accurate and repeatable test stimulus with superior level repeatability, <–121 dBc/Hz phase noise, and an electronic attenuator up to 6 GHz. This enhanced signal quality leads to better measurement certainty, enabling you to improve test yield.

Simplify system integration

LXI class C compliance helps you efficiently integrate Agilent MXG into your LAN-based test system. USB, GPIB, and LAN connectivity provides for remote access. Backward code compatibility makes for fast and easy replacement of older Agilent (including 8648 and ESG) and other signal manufacturer's generators (see specifications document).

Maximize Uptime on the Manufacturing Line

Designed for long term dependability in production environments with a focus on reliability and simplified-self maintenance, the Agilent MXG helps you maximize uptime and lower cost of ownership. Agilent MXG's architecture, comprised of just five sub-assemblies, increases system integrity without sacrificing performance. It also enables Agilent to offer innovative self maintenance that reduces potential downtime on your manufacturing line.

Reliability
The Agilent MXG delivers a high level of reliability and therefore overall quality that dramatically reduces the mean time between failures and delivers one of the lowest annual fail rates in the industry. This includes a wear-free electronic attenuator for frequencies up to 6 GHz to ensure fast, repeatable results.
