Agilent N5181A (MXG) Analog RF Signal Generator

Additional Product Information

Featuring fast frequency and amplitude switching, high reliability, and simplified self-maintenance – the new Agilent N5181A MXG Analog Signal Generator is optimized to provide accurate and repeatable reference signals for manufacturing test. With scalable RF performance, the N5181A is easily configured 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 ΦM.

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.
