This unit
The Anritsu 68063B is a synthesized CW generator delivering phase-locked RF signals from 2.0 GHz to 40.0 GHz. Purpose-built for telecommunications and radar testing, this instrument provides precise frequency control and stable output suitable for local oscillator replacement, component analysis, signal simulation, and ATE integration. Front panel and remote GPIB control enable flexible operation across demanding measurement scenarios.
Technical Specifications
- Frequency Range: 2.0 GHz to 40.0 GHz
- Signal Type: Synthesized Continuous Wave (CW)
- Output Power: Up to +17 dBm
- Frequency Resolution: Standard resolution with optional 0.1 Hz resolution available
- Phase Noise: Ultra-low SSB phase noise (–100 dBc at 10 kHz offset, referenced to 10 GHz)
- Phase-Lock Capability: High resolution phase-lock operation across the full frequency range
Key Features
- Sweep Modes: CW, step sweep, and alternate sweep between two ranges with independent power levels
- Step Sweep Parameters: 1 to 10,000 steps; step size from 1 kHz (or 0.1 Hz with Option 11) up to full span; dwell time 1 ms to 99 seconds per step; switching time less than 15 ms + 1 ms/GHz step size (or less than 40 ms)
- Modulation: Internal AM, FM, ØM, and pulse modulation; user-downloadable complex modulation supported on select configurations
- Programmable Frequency Agility: Up to 1,000 non-sequential frequencies storable and addressable under GPIB control
- Manual Sweep: Stepped, phase-locked frequency adjustment with user-selectable step count or step size
Typical Applications
- Local oscillator replacement in test systems
- Component and subsystem analysis
- RF signal simulation for receiver testing
- Integration into automatic test equipment (ATE) platforms
- Radar and telecommunications system validation

Anritsu 68063B — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Anritsu 68063B. Calibration covers output frequency accuracy, output power level accuracy across the full frequency range, AM/FM/PM/pulse modulation accuracy, harmonic and spurious output levels, and phase noise floor verification. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.
Common Anritsu 68063B faults: YIG oscillator failure (no output or loss of lock), step attenuator wear (output drops or steps at set attenuation), ALC loop failure (uncontrolled output power), I/Q modulator assembly failure. HP/Agilent 836xx series most common faults are YIG oscillator failure and step attenuator contact wear causing output steps or drops at specific attenuation settings. Keysight E4428C/E4438C units most commonly develop ALC loop failure and I/Q modulator assembly faults. YIG oscillator replacement and attenuator service are stocked repairs.
