E8257D PSG Microwave Analog
Signal Generator


Configuration Guide
This guide assists in the ordering process of the E8257D PSG microwave analog signal generator. Standard product
includes installation guide, electronic documentation set (CD-ROM), adapters, and country specific power cord.


Keysight Technologies, Inc. PSG Microwave Analog Signal Generator Options
Step 1. Choose a frequency range (required)
All frequency range options support underrange to 100 kHz. However, performance specifications are not provided between 100 kHz and
250 kHz. Additionally, Option 567 supports overrange to 70 GHz. Typical performance specifications are provided between 67 GHz and 70 GHz.

Ordering number Description Purpose Requires
E8257D-520 Frequency range from 250 kHz to 20 GHz Selects the maximum frequency of the
signal generator
E8257D-532 Frequency range from 250 kHz to 31.8 GHz Selects the maximum frequency of the
signal generator
E8257D-540 Frequency range from 250 kHz to 40 GHz Selects the maximum frequency of the
signal generator
E8257D-550 Frequency range from 250 kHz to 50 GHz Selects the maximum frequency of the
signal generator
E8257D-567 Frequency range from 250 kHz to 67 GHz Selects the maximum frequency of the
signal generator

Step 2. Choose ultra-high output power model
Ordering number Description Purpose Requires
E8257D-521 1 Ultra-high output power model Selects the frequency range of the ultra-high
Frequency range from 10 MHz to 20 GHz output power signal generator

Step 3. Choose modulation
Ordering number Description Purpose Requires
Standard CW signal generation Generates continuous wave (CW) signals
(i.e. no modulation)
E8257D-UNT AM, FM, phase modulation, and LF output Generates analog modulated signals
E8257D-UNU 2 Pulse modulation Generates pulse modulated signals
(150 ns minimum pulse width)
E8257D-UNW 2 Narrow pulse modulation Generates pulse modulated signals
(20 ns minimum pulse width)
E8257D-1SM 3 Scan modulation Provides deep AM capability E8257D-520
and -UNT

Step 4. Choose step attenuator
Ordering number Description Purpose Requires
Standard No step attenuator Generates signals with output power levels
ranging from
