Features: Frequency range: 30 Hz to 26.5 GHz ±1.0 dB absolute amplitude accuracy -149 dBm/Hz displayed average noise level (DANL) <-113 dBc/Hz phase noise at 10 kHz offset Fast digital resolution bandwidths of 1 Hz to 3 MHz Portable, MIL-PRF-28800, Class 3 rugged The Agilent 8563EC portable, color display microwave spectrum analyzer offers the measurement capability and performance previously found in larger, more expensive benchtop analyzers. This analyzer has a standard frequency range of 9 kHz to 26.5 GHz (preselected from 2.75 GHz to 26.5 GHz), with optional low-end frequency coverage to 30 Hz. The 8563EC extends the outstanding features and capabilities of the 8560EC series RF spectrum analyzers into the microwave frequency range. The 8563EC has a standard frequency range of 9 kHz to 26.5 GHz (preselected from 2.75 GHz to 26.5 GHz), with optional low-end frequency coverage to 30 Hz. The image-enhanced, double-balanced harmonic mixer of the 8563EC achieves noise-figure performance similar to that of a fundamentally-mixed front end. Another standard feature is the ability to measure from .10 to 99.99 percent occupied bandwidth. Time-gated signal analysis is another standard feature that allows you to easily measure time-varying signals such as pulsed RF, time-division multiple access (TDMA), interleaved and burst-modulated. The 85902 A burst carrier trigger can supply a TTL trigger signal. 8560EC series specifications have been enhanced. Now, you can get better phase noise, sensitivity, dynamic range and frequency response from this high performance portable spectrum analyzer family. With the 85672A spurious response measurements utility, you can use 8560EC series spectrum analyzers to make fast and easy spurious response tests.
