This unit
The Anritsu 69247A Synthesized Signal Generator delivers precise RF signal generation across 0.01–20.0 GHz, with optional extension to 26.5 GHz. This instrument functions as a local oscillator replacement, component analyzer, signal simulator, and ATE system source. Output power ranges from −125 dBm to +13.0 dBm typical, with frequency resolution down to 1 kHz standard or 0.1 Hz with Option 11.
The 69247A combines low phase noise (−100 dBc SSB at 10 kHz offset from 10 GHz), fast frequency switching (<40 ms to 1 kHz settling), and flexible modulation in a single platform.
Technical Specifications
- Frequency Range: 0.01–20.0 GHz (base); 0.01–26.5 GHz with Option 15
- Output Power: −125 dBm to +13.0 dBm typical; +15 dBm minimum above 2 GHz with Option 15B
- Frequency Resolution: 1 kHz standard; 0.1 Hz with Option 11
- Phase Noise (SSB): −100 dBc at 10 kHz offset from 10 GHz; <−131 dBc/Hz typical at 1 GHz, 20 kHz offset
- Frequency Switching: <40 ms to within 1 kHz of final frequency; <8.5 ms/step with Option 14 (Wiltron 360B VNA compatibility)
- Sweep Capability: CW, step, alternate, manual, and power sweep modes
- Sweep Width: 1 kHz to full frequency range (0.1 Hz with Option 11)
- Dwell Time: 1 ms to 99 seconds per step
- Reference Interface: External 10 MHz input; 10 MHz output at 0.5 V p-p into 50 Ω
Key Features
- Internal AM, FM, phase modulation (øM), and pulse modulation with doublet, triplet, or quadruplet pulse support
- User-defined arbitrary waveform generation and complex modulation via Option 10 (includes Windows software and serial cable)
- Phase modulation option (Option 6) converts FM input/generator to FM/øM capability
- SCAN modulator (Option 20) for high-depth amplitude modulation simulation
- GPIB interface with SCPI programmability (Option 19, IEEE 488.2–1987 compliant)
- Low spurious signal levels throughout operating range
Typical Applications Local oscillator replacement, RF component characterization, signal simulation, automated test equipment (ATE) integration, and network analyzer sourcing.
Compatibility & Integration GPIB control enables integration into production test systems and bench-top measurement setups. External 10 MHz reference synchronization supports multi-instrument coherent operation.

Anritsu 69247A — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Anritsu 69247A. 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 69247A 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.
