The RSA600 Series gives you the bandwidth and analysis tools you need to succeed
The RSA600 Series brings real-time spectrum analysis and wide analysis bandwidth to solving the problems of engineers who need to characterize, validate and manufacture their designs. The heart of the system is the USB-based RF spectrum analyzer that captures 40 MHz bandwidths with great fidelity. With 70 dB dynamic range and frequency coverage to 7.5 GHz, you can fully characterize wideband signals up to 40 MHz bandwidths. The USB form factor moves the processing power to the PC of your choice, so you decide when you need more processing power or memory.
The optional tracking generator enables gain/loss measurements for quick tests of filters, amplifiers, duplexers and other components, and you can add cable and antenna measurements of VSWR, return loss, distance to fault, and cable loss as needed.
SignalVu-PC software offers rich analysis capability for your lab
The RSA600 Series operates with SignalVu-PC, a powerful program used as the basis of Tek's traditional spectrum analyzers. SignalVu-PC offers a deep analysis capability previously unavailable in low-cost laboratory solutions. Real-time processing of the DPX spectrum/spectrogram is enabled in your PC, further reducing the cost of hardware. Customers who need programmatic access to the instrument can choose either the SignalVu-PC programmatic interface or use the included Application Programming Interface (API) that provides a rich set of commands and measurements directly. Basic functionality of the free SignalVu-PC program is far from basic. Base version measurements are shown below.
The RSA600A combined with SignalVu-PC offers advanced measurements
With 40 MHz of real-time bandwidth, the unique DPX® spectrum/spectrogram shows you every instance of an interfering or unknown signal, even down to 15 μs in duration. The following image shows a WLAN transmission (green and orange), and the narrow signals that repeat across the screen are the Bluetooth access probe. The spectrogram (upper part of the screen) clearly separates these signals in time to show any signal collisions.
Advanced triggers of RSA600A
SignalVu's advanced triggers simplify the task of acquiring pulsed, transient, or unexpected RF signals, and elusive over-the-air RF signals in the field. Use the time qualified trigger to specify the duration of a pulse or signal event to trigger an acquisition.
Enable the DPX density trigger to activate a capture only when a signal appears in a certain spectrum area with a specific amount of power and duration.
Define a frequency mask trigger to capture when signals appear inside or outside a predefined area.
