The New Generation of RF Signal Generators Now Available at Ibis Instruments
Keysight expands its portfolio with AnaPico technology – the AP500xA delivers top performance in a compact form factor
As a long-term partner and authorized distributor of Keysight Technologies, Ibis Instruments is proud to announce the expansion of its RF and microwave portfolio through the integration of products from AnaPico AG, now part of the Keysight group.
With this step, a selection of innovative AnaPico solutions is now available to customers in the region, including the new compact signal generator series – Keysight AP500xA.
Compact Design, High Performance
The AP500xA series combines compact design, high performance, and affordability, making it an ideal choice for laboratories, production environments, and field applications.
These generators cover frequencies up to 26 GHz, deliver an exceptionally clean signal, provide fast frequency switching (up to 40 µs), and support multiple modulation types (AM, FM, PM, pulse, and chirp). All this comes in a unit weighing less than 5 kg, with an optional battery-powered operation.
As the successors of AnaPico technology, these generators retain the brand’s well-known precision, reliability, and flexibility—now enhanced with Keysight quality and support.

High Performance at an Affordable Price
The AP500xA delivers performance once reserved for significantly more expensive instruments:
- Phase noise @1 GHz: –130 dBc/Hz
- Fast frequency switching: 400 µs
- Wide output power dynamic range
- AM/FM/PM/Pulse modulation and frequency chirp
- Easy-to-use interface and SCPI command compatibility
All these features make the AP500xA an economical yet highly capable signal generator that ensures professional-grade results with a cost-effective investment.
