PSA Options & Measurement Personalities
The PSA Series of high-performance spectrum analyzers offers a flexible platform for signal analysis. A variety of hardware options and built-in measurement personalities can be added to the platform to expand its measurement capabilities. Adding the 80 MHz bandwidth digitizer option enables the PSA to capture a wide bandwidth signal with excellent dynamic range. Selecting right measurement personalities allows your PSA to make phase noise or noise figure measurements, or to perform modulation analysis on today’s popular digital communication formats.
