Overview
Compress time, compress test
The best solution for a specific problem is a focused tool you simply fine-tune. Keysight’s
M9421A PXIe vector transceiver (VXT) is purpose-built for rapid solution creation and
faster throughput in manufacturing test of wireless components, power amplifiers, and
RF front-end modules. With FPGA-accelerated measurements and deep software, the
ready-to-run VXT lets you start closer to your finish line.
Product description
The M9421A VXT is a four-slot PXIe vector signal generator and analyzer, ranging from
60 MHz to 3.8 or 6 GHz with modulation and analysis bandwidth up to 160 MHz. Up to
four VXT’s can be configured in a single 18-slot PXI chassis, with only a single M9300A
frequency reference required. Alternatively, a versatile single-chassis custom solution
can be created from Keysight’s modular portfolio, dramatically reducing test footprint.
Applications
– Power amplifier and front-end-module design validation
and manufacturing
– Radio transceiver design validation and production test
– Development, design validation, and manufacturing test for radios and other IoT
connected devices
