Anritsu MG3692C Signal Generator

Overview

The Anritsu MG3692C is a broadband signal generator spanning 0.1 Hz to 70 GHz with optional extension to 500 GHz and beyond using external multipliers. The MG3692C offers three selectable tiers of SSB phase noise performance to optimize cost versus performance requirements. Featuring industry-best pulse modulation capabilities with 100 ns leveled pulse widths, fast 5 ms frequency switching, and a full suite of analog modulation options, the MG3692C is highly configurable for both simple and complex signal simulation requirements.

Key Features
