Agilent's new N9030A PXA signal analyzer provides frequency
coverage up to 26.5 GHz and includes extensive code-compatibility
features with existing Agilent or HP high-performance signal
analyzers.
Agilent PXA reveals signal details, starting with up to
75 dB spurious-free dynamic range at 140-MHz analysis bandwidth.
Other key specifications include -128 dBc/Hz phase noise
at 10 kHz offset (1 GHz), 0.19 dB absolute amplitude accuracy,
and sensitivity of -172 dBm displayed average noise level
(DANL) at 2 GHz (with preamplifier and Noise Floor Extension
technology).
This analyzer features built-in one-button measurements.
The applications can be ported to other Agilent's analyzers,
which include the PXA, MXA, EXA and CXA signal analyzers.
Agilent 89600 vector signal analysis (VSA) software can
run inside the instrument, providing advanced analysis of
more than 70 demodulation formats.
"In real-world signal analysis, the ability to keep
test assets up to date equals success," said Guy Séné,
vice president and general manager, Agilent's Microwave
& Communications Division. "The PXA provides that
ability today and tomorrow with architecture that supports
new measurement applications, future hardware add-ons, wider
analysis bandwidths, and possible upgrades to the instrument
CPU, memory, disk drives and I/O ports."

Agilent has also introduced low-cost signal analyzer N9000A
CXA signal analyzer for frequency coverage up to 7.5 GHz.
The measurement applications includes preconfigured test
routines for noise figure, phase noise, analog demodulation
and more.
"In a marketplace filled with lookalike instruments,
we're encouraging people to expect more from their low-cost
signal analyzers," said Feng Huo, general manager of
Agilent Technologies (Chengdu) Co., Ltd. "The essential
capabilities and X-Series scalability of the CXA can help
our customers accelerate product testing and development
on multiple levels: cost reduction, throughput, design enhancement
and beyond."
Agilent claims, on the production line, the CXA is up to
200 percent faster than other low-cost analyzers, providing
the speed needed to increase system throughput and reduce
system count. For example, the CXA can return a peak-search
result in less than 5 ms and perform a remote sweep-and-transfer
in less than 6 ms via LAN. Switching between measurement
modes typically takes less than 75 ms.
