Description
Overview
The Tektronix RSA5106B real-time spectrum analyzer extends the RSA5000 Series to 6.2 GHz with advanced signal discovery and analysis capabilities. Delivering up to 292,000 frequency transforms per second via its DPX spectrum processor, it detects transient events as brief as 3.7 μs in the frequency domain and captures complex RF events in real time. With +20 dBm TOI and -151 dBm/Hz DANL at 2 GHz, it provides the dynamic range needed for wideband signal analysis up to 165 MHz acquisition bandwidth with 80 dBc spurious-free performance.
Key Features
- Frequency range: 1 Hz to 6.2 GHz
- Real-time acquisition bandwidths: 25 MHz, 40 MHz, 85 MHz, 125 MHz, 165 MHz
- DPX spectrum processing: up to 292,000 frequency transforms per second
- Minimum transient event duration: 3.7 μs in frequency domain, 9.1 ns in time domain
- 3rd order intercept: +20 dBm at 2 GHz (typical)
- DANL: -151 dBm/Hz at 2 GHz; -167 dBm/Hz with internal preamp (typical)
- Spurious-free dynamic range: 73 dB in all acquisition bandwidths, ≥80 dBc with HD options
- Advanced triggering: Power, frequency mask, frequency edge, DPX density, runt, time-qualified
- Signal recording: up to 7.15 seconds at 110 MHz or 343+ seconds at 1 MHz with extended memory
- Time-correlated multi-domain measurements and analysis
