Requirements

E4438C ESG
Vector Signal Generator
 

Firmware revision C.04.10 or later (how to upgrade)

One of the following baseband generator options:

  • E4438C-001 (internal baseband generator with 8 Msample memory)

  • E4438C-002 (internal baseband generator with 32 Msample memory)

  • E4438C-601 (internal baseband generator with 8 Msample memory and digital bus capability)

  • E4438C-602 (internal baseband generator with 64 Msample memory and digital bus capability, recommended)

  • E4438C-005 (6 GB internal hard drive, recommended)

Other recommended options:

  • E4438C-403 (calibrated noise personality, required for C/N capability, recommended)

  • E4438C-506 (250 kHz to 6 GHz frequency range, recommended)

  • E4438C-UNJ (enhanced phase noise performance, required with E4438C-506)

E8267D PSG
Vector Signal Generator

Firmware revision C.04.11 or later (how to upgrade)

One of the following baseband generator options:

  • E8267D-601 (internal baseband generator with 8 Msample memory and digital bus capability)

  • E8267D-602 (internal baseband generator with 64 Msample memory, recommended)

Other recommended options:

  • E8267D-UNU (standard pulse modulation)

  • E8267D-005 (internal hard drive, recommended)

E8267D-UNW (narrow pulse modulation) is not recommended. EVM Performance degrades at frequencies ≥ 3.5 GHz.
