The Anritsu 69067B is a synthesized continuous wave generator delivering ultra-low phase noise and spurious signals across 0.01 GHz to 40.0 GHz. Engineered for ATE applications requiring high sensitivity and low-distortion performance, this compact instrument generates phase-locked CW signals with exceptional spectral purity—achieving -107 dBc SSB phase noise at 10 kHz offset from 10 GHz. Output power ranges from +13 dBm to -15 dBm typically, expandable to -120 dBm with attenuator and down to -125 dBm minimum. Frequency resolution of 100.0 mHz (0.1 Hz optional) enables precise tuning, while digital frequency and power sweep modes support both manual stepped adjustment and list sweep operation with up to 4 tables of 2000 non-sequential frequency/power sets. Switching time remains under 5 ms for steps below 100 MHz and typically under 25 ms for units with 20 GHz or higher frequency ceiling. The oven-stabilized internal reference oscillator provides <5×10⁻¹⁰ per day frequency stability. Output level adjustment resolves to 0.01 dB steps, guaranteeing leveled power up to +17 dBm from DC to 20 GHz. GPIB control and optional SCPI programmability enable ATE integration, while IVI-COM and National Instruments LabVIEW drivers facilitate rapid deployment. The single 13.3 cm package minimizes rack footprint. Millimeter wave source modules extend performance to 110 GHz; economical upgrades to higher-performing models and broader frequency coverage are available. Ideal for low-jitter clock generation, laser system references, and high-bit-rate digital modulation testing.
