The 8648A Synthesized RF Signal Generator is ideal for manufacturing high-volume products such as cordless telephones, pagers and two-way radios. Designed for semi-automated receiver test, and a variety of general purpose applications, the 8648A starts with the basic capabilities of the 8647A, then enhances residual FM, level accuracy and phase noise performance. While maintaining affordability, the 8648A is built to stringent quality standards, and offers an all-electronic attenuator to promote measurement consistency and repeatability. In addition, the simplistic design of the front panel shortens the operator's learning curve and increases productivity. With 300 storage registers and ten user-definable sequences (accessible from a remote keypad), the 8648A easily adapts to any test procedure.
