Tektronix spectrum analyzers extend analysis up to 20GHz

Beaverton, Ore.—Tektronix Inc. has expanded the RSA6000 series to include the RSA6120A spectrum analyzer, which extends all of the capabilities of the RSA6000 Series out to 20GHz, allowing designers to apply the spectrum analyzer's capabilities throughout the entire Ku band.

The RSA6120A features a spurious-free dynamic range of 75dB and a third order intercept of +19dB above 6 GHz. The new spectrum analyzer also features industry-leading channel flatness operation for all measurements due to a switched-filter preselector. Flatness across 100MHz, for instance, is specified at ±0.7dB RMS and ±1.5° RMS. Tektronix enhanced the spectrum analyzer's vector calibration procedure, allowing for confident measurements of signals that are free from distortion.

In addition, the RSA6120A provides radar designers with powerful signal analysis tools, including impulse response, and 26 other automated pulse parameter measurements, statistical measurement and waveform replay with acquisition history.

Pricing: Begins at $96,400 US MSRP.
Availability: Now.
