The Keysight E5052A (Agilent) Signal Source Analyzer, 10 MHz to 7 GHz, features a number of enhanced performance characteristics. It offers world’s highest measurement throughput and best usability in characterizing VCO or other types of high frequency signal sources, aw well as clock jitter evaluation in high-speed data communication systems.

The Keysight E5052A has a frequency range that can be extended up to 26.5 GHz with the Agilent E5053A, and up to 110 GHz with the E5053A plus Keysight 11970 (Agilent) series mixers.

The E5052A SSA is suitable for use in a wide range of applications including RF/uW/mmW oscillators, VCO’s, system reference clocks, LAN modules, high-speed timing modules, SerDes chips, and high-speed data converters (ADC/DAC).
