The Agilent Technologies 70911A
ultra-wide bandwidth IF module adds
receiver functionality to certain
70000 series spectrum analyzers.
Designed specifically to work with
the 71209A option 001 analyzer, it
adds receive bandwidths of 10 MHz to
100 MHz in 10% increments. When
the 70911A is added to the 71209A
option 001, the combination constitutes the 71910A wide-bandwidth
surveillance receiver.
The 71910A receiver monitors signals
from 100 Hz to 26.5 GHz. It provides
a cost effective combination of search
and wide-bandwidth collection capabilities for surveillance and signal
monitoring applications. Its flexibility
makes it an ideal downconverter in
stimulus-response applications.
To search for signals, it sweeps over
user-specified spans up to 26.5 GHz
wide using bandwidths up to 3 MHz.
A wide dynamic range ensures signals of various amplitudes are quickly
identified. Once a signal is located,
the receiver is fixed-tuned and the
wide IF bandwidths are used for
signal collection. (Bandwidths up to
36 MHz are available with microwave
preselection, and up to 100 MHz
unpreselected). A linear IF signal
path provides good signal fidelity
with standard outputs of 321.4 MHz
IF and linear video. Optional outputs
include 70 and 140 MHz IF, analog
I/Q, and demodulated FM.

Option 002 140 MHz IF output (one board)
Option 004 Analog I/Q output (two boards)
Option 005 FM output (one board)
Option 007 70 MHz IF channel filters (one board) requires Option 001
Option 098 LO firmware upgrade, CPU board upgrade, and 1 Mbyte RAM
Option 099 LO firmware upgrade and 1 Mbyte RAM
Option 0B1 Extra user manual set

Option 8ZE Refurbished 70911A
Upgrade Information
Existing 71209A systems with Option 001 (70910A RF Section) may be upgraded to the 71910A by ordering 70911A with Option 098 or 099 (required).
Existing 71209A systems without option 001 may add the 70911A, but the
maximum bandwidth will be reduced in microwave bands.
Agilent 70911A
Option 098 LO firmware upgrade, CPU board upgrade, and 1 Mbyte RAM (for
systems having 68000 CPU)
Option 099 LO firmware upgrade and 1 MByte RAM (for systems having 68020
CPU)
For a 71209A to be compatible with the 70911A, the LO module must have
firmware
1
with date code 940120 (B.05.00), a 68020 CPU,2and 1 Mbyte RAM
3
(for the receiver personality).
In addition, the 70001A mainframe must have an air flow (cooling) modification when operating with the 70911A (only if it includes one or more option
cards).

An 71910A system shipped from the factory includes an 70910A RF Section
with firmware that has been modified for moderately faster tuning. It is not
necessary to upgrade existing 70910A units.
