Used AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8657A #9126895 for sale

AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8657A signal generator is an advanced instrument designed for users who require high performance and signal fidelity in supporting their test and measurement needs. With a variety of output signal types and modulation capabilities and frequency ranges from 10Hz to 6GHz, HP 8657A signal generator allows users to generate both analogue and digital modulated signals in applications like communications systems, instrumentation systems, and frequency hopping. AGILENT 8657A signal generator is well suited to both production and research environments due to its comprehensive built-in capabilities, comprehensive control, and the ability to easily interface with various other measurement instruments and computers. HEWLETT-PACKARD 8657A signal generator supports a wide range of signal-generation needs via its pulse, arbitrary, and standard waveform capability. Its pulse generator capacity features low-jitter pulses as short as 50ns for fast time/frequency-domain measurements, as well as an arbitrary waveform library for modulated signal types. A wide variety of standard waveform types for specific applications come pre-loaded and are ready for use. 8657A also offers excellent interior accuracy, with a typical total amplitude accuracy of +/- 0.1 dB and a harmonic distortion of -45 dBc at 3 GHz. KEYSIGHT 8657A is also designed with built-in modulation capabilities such as FM, PM, linear FM, digital modulation amplitude-shift keying (ASK), and frequency-shift keying (FSK) at data rates up to 32 Mb/s. Additionally, its digital modulators can pair with a simple digital interface to support up to 256 messages for complex digital modulation such as Pulse Interval Modulation (PIM). It also supports arbitrary Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) for versatility. AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8657A signal generator also incorporates very low-noise performance with a noise floor as low as -129 dBm/Hz, which is ideal for testing low-noise components and designs. Also, the instrument is designed to quickly generate extremely low-noise static signals with very little drift over the entire power range. HP 8657A also supports two receivers that allow users to easily select between simultaneous two-signal generation or two-signal reception. Finally, AGILENT 8657A signal generator is designed with computer-controlled operation in mind. With its GPIB interface, this instrument can be coupled with other measurement instruments and computers to provide users with automation and programmability. Combined with its comprehensive modulation capabilities, HEWLETT-PACKARD 8657A signal generator is a powerful tool for test and measurement applications that require advanced signal-generation and manipulation.
