This unit
The Anritsu 69397A is a synthesized sweep/signal generator delivering precise, stable RF signal generation across 0.01 to 65 GHz. Purpose-built for local oscillator replacement and demanding CW applications, this instrument combines ultra-low SSB phase noise at -107 dBc/Hz (10 kHz offset from 10 GHz) with flexible sweep architectures and comprehensive modulation capability. Output spans -125 dBm to +17 dBm with optional 0.1 Hz frequency resolution.
Technical Specifications
Frequency Range: 0.01–65 GHz Output Power: -125 dBm to +17 dBm Phase Noise: -107 dBc/Hz (10 kHz offset from 10 GHz, SSB) Switching Time: Typically <15 ms + 1 ms/GHz step size, or <40 ms maximum Time Base Stability:- Accuracy: Matches internal or external 10 MHz reference
- Aging: <2 × 10⁻⁸/day (standard); <5 × 10⁻¹⁰/day with Option 16
- Temperature Stability: <2 × 10⁻⁸/°C over 0–55 °C (standard); <2 × 10⁻¹⁰/°C with Option 16 Memory Storage:
- Volatile: Four tables, 2000 frequency/power sets each (List Sweep)
- Non-volatile: One table, 2000 points
Key Features Sweep Modes: Analog, step, manual, and CW sweep with user-selectable step counts or sizes. Dwell time per step ranges from 1 ms to 99 seconds. Modulation: AM, FM, phase, and pulse modulation via external or internal sources. Internal modulation offers seven waveforms including Gaussian noise and arbitrary user-defined patterns. Reference I/O: Accepts external 10 MHz reference input; provides 0.5 V p-p 10 MHz reference output (50 Ω, AC coupled) from rear panel BNC connector.
Interfaces & Integration GPIB (IEEE 488.2), Ethernet (10BASE-T), USB, and AUX I/O connector with TTL triggering support enable both bench and automated system control.
Form Factor Rackmount configuration.

Anritsu 69397A — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Anritsu 69397A. 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 69397A 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.
