What frequency range does the Keysight M9384B VXG cover?
The Keysight M9384B VXG microwave signal generator is available in several frequency options ranging from 1 MHz to 44 GHz. Specific options include F14 (1 MHz to 14 GHz), F20 (1 MHz to 20 GHz), F32 (1 MHz to 31.8 GHz), and F44 (1 MHz to 44 GHz), with frequency resolution of 0.01 Hz for precise signal generation across the entire range.
What is the maximum output power of the M9384B?
The maximum output power of the M9384B varies by frequency range and configuration. For options F14 and F20, standard configuration provides up to +22 dBm from 1.5 GHz to 12 GHz. For options F32 and F44, standard configuration provides up to +18 dBm from 1.5 GHz to 18 GHz. With high-power options 1EB or 1EE, output power can reach up to +22 dBm typical in key frequency ranges.
Does the M9384B support vector modulation?
Yes, the M9384B supports vector modulation with option Dxx providing internal I/Q baseband generation and modulation capabilities. The RF modulation bandwidth reaches 2 GHz from 3.2 GHz to 44 GHz, enabling generation of complex modulated signals. Factory channel corrections are available to correct the linear phase and amplitude response of both the baseband I/Q and RF outputs using factory calibration arrays.
What pulse modulation capabilities does the M9384B offer?
The M9384B with option PMR or PME provides comprehensive pulse modulation capabilities including minimum pulse width of 30 ns with ALC off for frequencies above 20 GHz, 100 ns for 10 MHz to 20 GHz, and 1 microsecond with ALC on. On/off ratios reach 88 dB typical below 3.2 GHz for standard configurations. The internal pulse generator supports square, adjustable, doublet, and pulse train modes with triggering options including free run, triggered, triggered doublet, gated, and external pulse.
How accurate is the frequency reference in the M9384B?
The M9384B features a high-accuracy frequency reference with initial achievable calibration accuracy of plus or minus 5 x 10^-8 at time of shipment. Aging rate is less than plus or minus 0.1 ppm per year after 72-hour warm-up, with total 10-year aging less than plus or minus 0.6 ppm. Temperature effects are less than plus or minus 10 ppb from 20 to 30 degrees C, ensuring stable and accurate frequency generation over time.
What is the phase noise performance of the M9384B with option ST6?
With option ST6, the M9384B delivers excellent phase noise performance. At 10 GHz carrier frequency, typical SSB phase noise is -115 dBc/Hz at 1 kHz offset, -126 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset, and -133 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset. At 1 GHz carrier, typical phase noise is -132 dBc/Hz at 1 kHz offset, -137 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset, and -138 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset, making it suitable for demanding spectral purity applications.
Can the M9384B be used for dual-channel applications?
Yes, with option PCH, the M9384B supports dual-channel operation with relative phase control between channel 1 and channel 2. Relative phase offset range is plus or minus 180 degrees with 0.001 degree resolution and 0.0001 degree repeatability when tuning frequency from f1 to f2 and back to f1. This enables phase-coherent multi-channel signal generation for advanced testing scenarios.
What are the harmonic suppression capabilities of the M9384B?
The M9384B provides harmonic suppression that varies by frequency range. From 2 GHz to 3.2 GHz, harmonics are specified at -44 dBc. From 11.4 GHz to 17.1 GHz, harmonics reach -41 dBc, with typical performance at -49 dBc. Option 1EH provides selectable harmonic filters for frequencies below 2 GHz, improving harmonic suppression to -46 dBc from 400 MHz to 2 GHz, which is valuable for applications requiring high spectral purity.
