Description
Item #: 8648B
Manufacturer: Agilent
Series: 86xx
8648B by Agilent is an Economy RF Signal Generator in the 86xx series. 8648B features Frequency Range of 9 kHz to 2,000 MHz and a Output Level of +13 to -136 dBm.
The HP Agilent 8648B is an Economy RF Signal Generator with a frequency range covering from 9 kHz to 2,000 MHz. This model is suited for component and RF receiver measurements. The large frequency range, reliable performance, numerous modulation methods, and unmatched quality enables the user to meet testing standards while staying within a budget. Bench space used will be minimal with this model’s small, compact size. This Economy RF Signal Generator weighs around 19 lbs. and measures 6.5 x 13 x 14.6 in. The slight weight makes the model perfect for service applications.
The 8648B has complete GPIB code compatibility with the 8656B and 8657A/B signal generators. Additionally, the 8648B Economy RF Signal Generator can be used with the 83301A memory interface to make saving register maintenance easier while using multiple Agilent 8648 Signal Generators. The 83301A memory interface duplicates the register data from one Signal Generator to another.
Yet another instrument that can be used with this Signal Generator is the 83300A remote interface. A mouse-like keypad allows the user to have swift accessibility to the patterns and storage registers in the model, along with modulation on/off and RF amplitude on/off. If the 83300A is linked to the back panel, remote control operation is available. The user does not need access to the front panel. Money spent on training will drop significantly. The necessary skill level will decrease because operation is simple enough for any operator to learn quickly. Also, measurement steadiness is guaranteed throughout the production line.
