ValueTronics International, Inc. Sweep Generator 83590A

The 83590A is a 20 GHz sweep generator from Agilent. A sweep generator is a tool engineers use to generate sinusoidal outputs while testing electronic equipment. The output will automatically have its frequency varied or swept between frequencies. A sweep is one complete cycle of a frequency variation. Engineers use sweep signal generators as test equipment, mostly to measure responses of filters, amplifiers, and electrical components. Additional Features: Frequency range: 2-20 GHz High output power Excellent harmonic performance Low cost of ownership Applications for the Agilent 83590A include scalar network analysis, serving as a local oscillator for down-converting high frequency signals, and a stand-alone RF signal source. The Agilent 83590A is a Sweep Generator Plug-In that provides a 2 to 20 GHz broadband coaxial swept frequency source for the Agilent 8350B sweep oscillator mainframe.
