Rigol RSA5000 Series [RSA5065-TG] Real Time Spectrum Analyzer with Tracking Generator

The RSA5065-TG 6.5GHz Spectrum Analyzer With Tracking Generator is a real-time device that scans a complete spectrum of 9kHz to 6.5GHz with a maximum sample rate of 51.2MS/s.  It offers significant performance improvements over traditional swept spectrum analyzers with a 1ms full span sweep, an expanded vertical range to +30dBm, reduced phase noise to -108dBc/Hz, 1 Hz RBW (resolution bandwidth), and a reduced noise floor (DANL) to -165dBm. Bit it can also be used in a  traditional swept scan mode.  The Tracking Generator in the RSA5065-TG provides a built-in signal source of 100kHz – 6.5GHz with an output range of -40dBm to 0dBm for plotting circuit or component frequency responses.  The flexible User Interface allows customers to interact with the unit with their preference, since it features a 10.1” capacitive touch screen display with gesture support, mouse/keyboard support, as well as traditional knob and button control.

Offering up to 40MHz Real-Time Bandwidth the RSA5065-TG calculates >146,000 FFT/sec, delivering down to a 7.45us 100% Probability of Intercept.  It provides seven display modes (Normal, Density, Spectogram, Power v. Time, Density & Spectogram, PVT & Spectrum, PVT & Spectrogram) and includes a Frequency Mask Trigger.  The Frequency Mask Trigger is especially useful for triggering measurements of sporadic or transient events.

Rigol describes the high-speed real-time measurement technology of this unit “Ultra-Real”. It performs rapid signal acquisition and data analysis, with various display modes to facilitate comprehensive signal interpretation.

Customers working with hopping/channel shifting technologies in crowded ISM bands will find a real-time analyzer essential, as will customers integrating PLL technology in their designs, identifying sources of interference or characterizing rapidly pulsing applications:  all will benefit from the seamless capture capabilities of the real-time spectrum analysis capability of the RSA5000 series.

Building on the tremendous success of Rigol’s DSA800 series of swept spectrum analyzers, the RSA5000 series of analyzers offer a combination of outstanding swept spectrum performance and 40MHz real-time Bandwidth, with category leading 7.45us POI, making the RSA5000 series a great choice for customers in spectrum monitoring, transmitter test, RF component characterization and EMI applications.
