Siglent SSA3050X-R 9kHz - 5GHz Spectrum Analyzer with Tracking Generator

The SIGLENT SSA3050X-R 9kHz to 5.0GHz Real-Time Spectrum Analyzer (RTSA) is a powerful and flexible tool for complex RF spectrum and signal analysis. With a capability of 40MHz analysis bandwidth and 7.2μs 100% probability of intercept (POI), the analyzers can provide multi-dimensional data displays, advanced triggering, and RF data capturing, to assist with modern RF spectrum challenges  such as frequency hopping, channel conflicts, spectrum interference, etc. These RTSAs also contain a standard tracking generator for network analysis, optional wide band digital modulation analysis, and EMI measurement. The built-in tracking generator operates from 100kHz to 5.0GHz.  Control is made easy with a 10.1” multi-touch screen, with an external mouse and keyboard also supported.  Remote control is also possible via an attached PC or web browser.

Many real-world signals such as modulated communications signals, spurious interference, and pulsed or frequency-hopping transmissions are sporadic, non-recurring, or even random. Using traditional spectrum analyzers, which steadily sweep through the active spectrum, these signals can easily be missed.  Real-time spectrum analysis (RTSA) leverages overlapping FFTs and high-speed memory to provide a 100% probability of intercept to detect even intermittent signals. Real-time bandwidth, the maximum frequency span of overlapping FFTs, is a critical parameter for an RTSA to allow detailed analysis of a signal\'s spectrum.

The SSA3000X-R analyzers can also perform in a swept or a real-time mode. A modulation analysis mode is also available for AM/FM, ASK/FSK/PSK/MSK/QAM vector signal modulation analysis and EVM evaluation, as well as data recording to a PC.  An EMI measurement mode allows for pre-compliance and other RF testing. Reflection measurement VSWR and return loss measurement with Q value calculation can be accomplished using an external reflection bridge or coupler. 

Applications include: broadcast monitoring, evaluation, cellular site evaluation, IoT, WiFi, Bluetooth, R&D, education, production test & maintenance. 

Siglent Spectrum and Vector Analyzers  and Signal Generators  products are now compatible with industry-leading software for EMC testing. Both ETS Lindgren TILE! and TekBox EMCView software now have driver support for many Siglent products. This helps companies doing pre-compliance and immunity testing to easily integrate Siglent instruments into their existing test systems.
