M9484C VXG and N5186A MXG Multifunction Generator

应用文章

A function generator is a type of signal generator that is used to generate various waveforms with adjustable parameters to generate complex signals. Keysight’s Multifunction Generator Option 303, first seen on the N5171B, includes a slew of function generators which can output complex signals. These signals can either be output directly to the LF port or routed to the modulators, ultimately output through the RF port. When using the function generators for modulation, the adjustable parameters include modulation type, frequency, amplitude, and phase. Often used in the fields of prototyping, development, testing, and calibration especially in the context of communication systems. An accurate function generator can help engineers accelerate the research and design process to bring high performance designs to the market quicker.
