This unit
The Anritsu 69285A is a synthesized signal generator delivering precise RF and microwave signal generation from 0.05 GHz to 60.0 GHz. Built for R&D, manufacturing, and field maintenance in microwave and millimeter-wave communications, it combines frequency synthesis architecture with exceptional signal purity and stability. The instrument supports amplitude, frequency, and pulse modulation alongside linear and logarithmic frequency sweeps, making it essential for component characterization, system integration, and signal validation across the microwave spectrum.

Anritsu 69285A — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Anritsu 69285A. 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 69285A 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.
