Product Description:

Agilent Technologies, Inc. 8566B 100 Hz to 22 GHz Spectrum Analyzer

The Agilent Technologies, Inc. 8566B spectrum analyzer is a wide band, very sensitive receiver. It works on the principle of "super-heterodyne receiver" to convert higher frequencies (normally ranging up to several 10s of GHz) to measurable quantities. The received frequency spectrum is slowly swept through a range of pre-selected frequencies, converting the selected frequency to a measurable DC level (usually logarithmic scale), and displaying the same on the CRT of the Agilent Technologies, Inc. 8566B. The CRT displays received signal strength (y-axis) against frequency ( x-axis).

Some applications for Agilent Technologies, Inc. 8566B Spectrum Analyzers include Site Monitoring: Verify that the frequency and signal strength of your transmitter is accurate. Interference: Before a system is installed you use a Agilent Technologies, Inc. 8566B spectrum analyzer to verify that the frequencies (you plan to use) are not occupied or if the presence of a very strong signal will interfere with your new setup. Interference can be created by a number of different situations. Other tests that utilize the Agilent Technologies, Inc. 8566B spectrum analyzer features include antenna isolation, co-channel interference, adjacent channel power, occupied bandwidth, intermodulation, microwave or satellite antenna alignment, and characterization of components.

Feature:
Minimum Frequency: 100Hz
Maximum Frequency: 22GHz
Resolution bandwidth: 10Hz

HP 8566B, 8567A, 8568B Spectrum Analyzers

The HP 8566B, 8567A, and 8568B are high-performance spectrum analyzers for bench and ATE systems use. The HP 8566B has the highest performance of the three, with a frequenyc range from 100Hz to 22GHz that can be extended to 325GHz using external mixers. The HP 8567A and 8568B are RF spectrum analyzers with frequency coverage to 1500MHz.

Each analyzer is designed around its own internal bus and controlled by its own microcomputer to yield significant improvements in operational and data processing features as well as flexibility under computer control. Each analyzer has 16KB of user RAM for storing trace data, instruments states, or custom downloadable programs (DLPs). Custom Softkey Programming
