Rigol DSA800 Spectrum Analyzers Series

The Rigol DSA800 Spectrum Analyzers Series enable precise direct measurements of higher frequency signals and systems, complete with built-in tracking generators. The ability to make measurements up to 7.5 GHz is critical for seeing third harmonics of 2.4 GHz wireless designs, while resolution bandwidth settings down to 10 Hz means precise visualisation of low-power RF signals.

Features include a VSWR measurement toolkit for configuring and evaluating antennas and an advanced measurement kit that enables additional measurement functions such as channel boundaries and signal-to-noise ratio. Accessories include the 8 GHz VSWR bridge or directional coupler and attenuator sets for higher power work (6, 10 or 30 dB high-power attenuators).

The EMI-DSA800 option provides EMI RBW settings, as well as a quasi-peak filter across the entire spectrum of interest for compliance and immunity testing. Low power issues can be investigated by adding an optional preamplifier. The displayed average noise level (DANL) normalised to 1 Hz is specified as low as -161 dBm (typical) from 5 MHz to 3.2 GHz.

Whether debugging an RF transceiver set, designing layout and configuration changes to maximise efficiency or testing a system in noisy environments, the analysers help to quickly and easily identify and analyse areas of RF concern.
