What frequency range does the Tektronix RSA5126B spectrum analyzer cover?
The Tektronix RSA5126B covers a frequency range from 1 Hz to 26.5 GHz. This wide frequency range makes it suitable for applications including wideband radar, pulsed RF signals, frequency agile communications, broadband satellite links, LTE cellular analysis, and EMC/EMI pre-compliance testing. The analyzer provides fully preselected and image-free analysis across its entire frequency range.
What acquisition bandwidths are available on the RSA5126B?
The RSA5126B offers selectable acquisition bandwidths of 25 MHz, 40 MHz, 85 MHz, 125 MHz, or 165 MHz. The wideband preselection filter provides image-free measurements across the entire analysis bandwidth. With high dynamic range options (B85HD, B125HD, or B16xHD), the analyzer can achieve spurious-free dynamic range of 80 dB over the entire acquisition bandwidth, which is industry leading for real-time spectrum analyzers.
What is DPX spectrum technology and how fast is it on the RSA5126B?
DPX (Digital Phosphor) spectrum processing is a patented technology that performs up to 3,125,000 frequency transforms per second, enabling 100% probability of intercept for signals as brief as 0.434 microseconds with Option 300. The revolutionary DPX spectrum display provides a live color view of signal transients changing over time in the frequency domain, with events color-coded by rate of occurrence. This is orders of magnitude faster than swept analysis techniques and reveals transient signal behavior that other spectrum analyzers may miss.
What is the displayed average noise level of the RSA5126B?
The RSA5126B has a displayed average noise level (DANL) of -142 dBm/Hz at 26.5 GHz, -157 dBm/Hz at 2 GHz, and -150 dBm/Hz at 10 kHz. With the internal preamp option available, DANL improves to -156 dBm/Hz at 26.5 GHz and -167 dBm/Hz at 2 GHz. This low noise floor translates to higher dynamic range, opening the analyzer to a wider range of applications and enabling detection of small signals in the presence of larger ones.
How much recording memory does the RSA5126B have for captured data?
The RSA5126B supports deep memory capture with record lengths that vary by acquisition bandwidth, providing up to 5.36 seconds at 165 MHz bandwidth, 343.5 seconds at 1 MHz bandwidth, or 6.1 hours at 10 kHz bandwidth with Memory Extension Option 53. Acquisitions up to 2 GB in length can be stored in MATLAB Level 5 format for offline analysis, enabling comprehensive post-capture analysis of complex signals.
What triggering capabilities does the RSA5126B real-time spectrum analyzer offer?
The RSA5126B provides advanced triggering including DPX Density trigger, frequency mask trigger, time-qualified power trigger, runt trigger, and frequency-edge trigger. The unique Trigger On This function allows you to point at a signal on the DPX display and automatically set a trigger level, making it easy to capture low-level signals in the presence of high-level signals. Time qualification can be applied to any internal trigger source to capture specific pulse characteristics, and two external trigger inputs are available for system synchronization.
Does the RSA5126B support wireless standards analysis?
Yes, the RSA5126B offers extensive wireless standards analysis through optional software packages. Available options include WLAN analysis for 802.11 a/b/g/j/p, 802.11n, and 802.11ac, Bluetooth Basic and Low Energy measurements, LTE FDD and TDD Base Station transmitter RF measurements, and APCO Project 25 compliance testing for Phase 1 and Phase 2. General purpose modulation analysis supporting more than 20 modulation types is also available, along with AM/FM/PM modulation and audio measurements.
What is the third order intercept and amplitude accuracy of the RSA5126B?
The RSA5126B has a third order intercept (TOI) of +17 dBm at 2 GHz, providing excellent dynamic range for challenging spectrum analysis measurements. The analyzer offers absolute amplitude accuracy of ±0.3 dB up to 3 GHz. Phase noise performance is -113 dBc/Hz at 1 GHz carrier frequency with 10 kHz offset, and -134 dBc/Hz at 10 MHz carrier frequency with 10 kHz offset, making it suitable for demanding phase noise measurements.
