Keysight Launches 20GHz Analog Signal Generator With Dual Channels
Keysight Technologies' new PSG XG7-class generator packs two independent channels in a 2U chassis, with -135dBc/Hz phase noise at a 10GHz carrier.
Keysight Technologies has launched a 20GHz PSG XG7-class analog signal generator that integrates two fully independent channels in a single 2U chassis, the company said on October 15, 2026, according to datanet.co.kr.
The instrument specifies -135dBc/Hz phase noise and -150dBc/Hz amplitude modulation noise at a 10GHz carrier frequency and 10kHz offset. Keysight also lists a wideband noise floor of -166dBc/Hz at 10GHz and calibrated output power of up to +22dBm.
The generator uses a hybrid architecture with software mode switching, and the company says it is compatible with SCPI standard programming commands and legacy setups.
The launch expands Keysight's PSG XG7-class line with a 20GHz dual-channel configuration aimed at test setups where two independent signal paths are required.
