    Description

    Item #: 8642A

    Manufacturer: Agilent
    Series: 86xx

    8642A by Agilent is a Synthesized Signal Generator in the 86xx series. 8642A features a Frequency Range of 100 kHz to 1057.5 MHz and a Maximum Power Dissipation of 300 VA.

    The HP Agilent 8642A Synthesized Signal Generator are ideal for difficult out-of-channel RF receiver measurements and other RF applications. The internal oscillator can be utilized as an audio source with different levels and rates. This model is created to decrease errors and make service procedures easy in case of a failure. The HP Agilent 8642A can be used in ATE systems; it will increase system up-time and improve production rates. This Synthesized Signal Generator has a frequency range from 100 kHz to 1,057.5 MHz. The absolute output level accuracy is +1 dB to -127 dBm.

    The suggested calibration time is every two years for the 8642A. The HP 8952A Signal Generator Test System can be used to confirm many of the specifications for the 8642A in approximately 20 minutes. This model is comprised of 14 internal modules with rigid I/O specifications, which enable a module-exchange repair approach. Defective modules can be singled out with internal diagnostic hardware and software. A replacement module can be placed inside, while the calibration information is sent to the main memory with a key pattern from the front-panel. Calibrations and changes are mainly performed electronically with ROM memory ICs and D/A converters.

    For the 8642A Synthesized Signal Generator, the output level is +20 dBm. This allows the model to make high level measurements, eradicating the necessity for external amplifiers. When the 8642A is used for ATE systems, the additional power is accessible to overcome cabling losses. There is a relative amplitude feature, which allows the display to be offset to present the accurate output level at the end of the cable.
