This unit
The Anritsu 69097B is a synthesized CW generator delivering ultra-low phase noise across 0.01 GHz to 65 GHz. Purpose-built for radar, communication systems, and precision laboratory testing, it combines exceptional SSB phase noise performance with spurious signal suppression required for sensitive measurements. The instrument features fast phase-locked step switching, leveled output down to –120 dBm in 0.01 dB resolution, and optional frequency stability to 5 × 10⁻¹⁰/day with aging.
Its compact 13.3 cm height fits A.T.E. rack configurations while maintaining full frequency and power sweep capabilities across the entire band.

Anritsu 69097B — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Anritsu 69097B. 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 69097B 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.
