83595C – HP Agilent

Description

Item #: 83595C

Manufacturer: HP Agilent
Series: 835xx

83595C by HP Agilent is an RF Plug-in in the 835xx series. 83595C features a frequency range of 10 MHz to 26.5 GHz and a minimum settable power of -2 dBm (-62 dBm with Option 002).

The HP 83595C is an RF Plug-in created to be utilized with the HP 8350 Sweep Oscillator. A few of the most valuable features on this model include the affordable cost, high output power, and strong harmonic performance. This RF Plug-in can be used in applications, such as operating as a local oscillator for down-converting high frequency signals, scalar network assessment, and can work as an individual RF signal source.

The HP 83595C RF Plug-in has two back panel links to the 8350 Sweep Oscillator: the RF plug-in interface link and the power supply interface link. This model delivers an RF output of 0.01 to 26.5 GHz in five separate bands. If the user sweeps a frequency range bigger than one band, then switching between the bands will occur instantaneously. Also, if the user cautiously chooses sweep frequencies on the 83595C, they can prevent issues related to bandswitching, which includes stability, switching disjointedness, or sweep time. When an application involves an enormous frequency range over two bandswitch points, the lowest suggested frequency sweep time is 100 ms. This will permit adequate time for the bandswitch procedure and for essential oscillator settling time.

The 83595C RF Plug-in can also be used for millimeter-wave applications. However, an 8349B Microwave Amplifier is needed to generate the power level needed by the millimeter-wave source module. In addition, the 83550 Series millimeter-wave source modules utilize the 0.5 V/GHz as a frequency reference. The frequency reference output can be chosen by the user on the A2 interface assembly.
