The Agilent U1600A Series digital handheld oscilloscopes include two models: the U1602A with 20 MHz bandwidth and U1604A with 40 MHz bandwidth. The U1600A Series is designed to address porta­bility in multi-industrial automation, process control, facility main­tenance and automotive-service industries. Bringing value and high performance, it was voted the No. 1 Product of the Year by readers of Elektronik, one of Europe’s key electronics magazines.
Clearly Distinguish your Waveforms
Clearly distinguish the waveforms between channels with U1600A’s large 4.5-inch, 320x240 resolution LCD color display.
Effective Capture and Precise Isolation of Signals
With real-time sampling rates up to 200 MSa/s, you can achieve effective capture of signal anomalies, deviations and glitches. The U1600A Series deep memory of 125 KB enables capture of non­repeating signals over long time spans, and zooming into the seg­ment of interest to uncover even the most subtle details of the signal. Advanced triggering types such as edge, pulse width, pattern and video, further enable quick isolation of critical events.
Quick Waveform Analysis with FFT and Dual Waveform Math Functions
Add and subtract multiple channel signals with U1600A’s Dual Waveform Math function. With the U1604A’s Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) function, you can view waveforms in four window­ing techniques: Rectangular, Hanning, Hamming, and Blackman­Harris.
22 Automatic Measurements
Make and display four different measurements simultaneously with up to 22 automatic measurements.

Analog: Up to 4 Channels with 4 GaS/s Sample Rate and 1 GHz Bandwidth
MegaZoom Technology
MegaZoom deep memory captures long, non-repeating signals and maintains high sample rates, allowing you to quickly zoom in on areas of interest. Sample rate and memory depth go hand-in-hand. Deep memory in oscilloscopes sustains a high sample rate over longer time spans. MegaZoom also supports a high-resolution XGA display system and maps the deep memory to 256 levels of color intensity grades, delivering unmatched real-time insight into signal details.
Signal Integrity – Probing
Probing high-frequency signals becomes more challenging as the variety of test points and the frequencies of the signals continue to grow. Probes need to be lightweight, small, affordable, and offer the accessories and probe tips you require to get your job done easily. Agilent has a wide range to meet your needs.
Digital: 16 Digital Timing Channels and Mixed Signal Triggering
With many of today’s designs containing a mix of signal types and speeds, it’s often critical to capture and compare multiple cycles of digital signals along with slower analog signals. But doing so often requires an instrument that can deliver more resolution and memory than a traditional DSO can provide.
Easily See Complex Interactions with an MSO
Mixed signal oscilloscopes (MSOs) with 2 or 4 scope channels plus 16 logic channels combine the detailed signal analysis of a scope with the multi-channel timing measurements of a logic analyzer.
Full-width Pattern Triggering
Flexible triggering capabilities across all scope and logic channels so you can easily isolate and analyze complex signals in your mixed analog and digital designs.
View Scope – Logic and Scope Correlation
Easily make time-correlated measurements between an Agilent logic analyzer and an Agilent 5000, 6000, 8000 or 80000 Series Scope. Easily view and analyze time-correlated logic and scope waveforms integrated into a single logic analyzer waveform display. Global markers track between two instruments.
Serial: Hardware-accelerated Decode and Trigger for I2C, SPI, CAN, LIN and Flex Ray
As more and more component interfaces move from parallel to serial on both low- and high-speed buses, Agilent is offering more serial triggering and decode options on oscilloscopes.
Serial Bus Triggering and Decoding
Trigger on the industry’s most popular serial bus standards includ­ing I
2
C, SPI, CAN, LIN, FlexRay and USB. Decode options display responsive, on-screen decode of serial bus traffic. Select from a suite of hardware triggers for the ability to isolate specific events with pin-point accuracy, then enable decode to validate serial bus activity in real-time.
Hijack Infrequent Errors
Fast acquisition speed combined with hardware-accelerated decod­ing increases your probability of capturing elusive events. Agilent oscilloscopes can help you catch that intermittent problem before it becomes an intermittent customer complaint or quality concern.

Users of general-purpose portable oscilloscopes have, until now, had to work through everyday debug tasks using oscilloscope technology from the 1990s. Engineers need tools capable of handling today’s design challenges. The new 5000 Series oscilloscopes tackle these needs with responsive deep memory, a high-definition display system, and a superior ability to capture signal transients. Traditional bench scopes are great for characterizing things that you know about. Agilent’s patented deep memory and fast waveform update rate help you find the bugs that you don’t know about.
MegaZoom III Deep Memory
Based on the same technology that powers Agilent’s market leading high end oscilloscopes the deep memory that is available in the 5000 oscilloscope is based on MegaZoom technology. 1 Mpt of MegaZoom deep memory comes standard so you can capture long, non-repeat­ing signals, while maintaining high sample rates and good timing resolution.

Deep Acquisition Memory
The entire waveform record is sent to the CPU creating a bottlenneck that slows down operation and can lead to missed signal details.
MegaZoom optimizes the sample rate for a given sweep speed and sends only the necessary waveform data for a given front panel setting, resulting in waveform update rates up to 25 times faster than other deep-memory scopes for a much more responsive operating experience.
Scope CPU
Conventional Deep-Memory Scope Architecture
MegaZoom Deep-Memory Scope Architecture
Scope memory affects sample rate.
Agilent MegaZoom delivers fast, responsive operation through a custom, integrated circuit that optimizes data acquisition and processing.
Always On and Always Fast
With many of today’s designs containing a mix of signal types and speeds, it’s often critical to capture and compare multiple cycles of digital signals along with slower analog signals. But doing so often requires an instrument that can deliver more resolution and memory than a traditional DSO can provide. MegaZoom gives you memory that is simultaneously fast and deep all the time, unlike deep-memory options on alternative scopes. With Agilent oscillo­scopes, you have up to 128 Mpts of MegaZoom deep memory, enabling you to correlate high-speed digital control signals with slower analog signals, capture infrequent events and then quickly zoom in on the details to narrow in on problems. Unlike deep-memory options on alternative scopes, Agilent MegaZoom is not a special mode with sluggish response. It’s always on, always fast, and always there to help you capture the most critical signals with maximized sample rates.
Patented Technology
MegaZoom technology is based on a custom processor that controls the flow of data into acquisition memory and rapid post-processing for display and measurements. The MegaZoom processor operates at the full speed of the scope’s A/D. Processing the data with MegaZoom technology greatly reduces the amount of data transferred to the scope’s CPU for post-processing. MegaZoom substantially increases the waveform update rate and front-panel responsiveness of Agilent’s deep memory scopes, making these scopes better suited to working on today’s complex digital-based designs. Responsiveness and waveform update rate slow down dramatically on traditional deep memory oscilloscopes making them difficult, sluggish and frustrating to use. Agilents oscilloscopes feature patented MegaZoom technology that provides the fastest waveform update rates – uncompromised. Agilent oscilloscopes also feature best-in-class waveform viewing powered by MegaZoom tech­nology.
Deep Memory Provides Sustained High Sample Rates
Besides bandwidth, one of the most fundamental specifications in a digital storage oscilloscope (DSO) is its specified maximum sample rate. However, a DSO’s sample rate is actually based on the scope's time base setting. At the faster time base settings, all oscilloscopes will capture waveforms using their specified maximum sample rates. But as you adjust the time base setting to slower ranges in order to capture longer waveforms, all scopes will automatically reduce their sample rates because of their limited memory depths. Deeper memory in an oscilloscope means that the scope can sustain its maximum sample rate on more time base settings, enabling you to see more details of your signals.

• Mixed signal oscilloscopes – 16 digital channels time-correlated with traditional scope analog channels
• Oscilloscope interface and ease of use with logic analyzer insight, timing and measurements
• Precise analog measurements timed with exact digital content, all in one box
Agilent pioneered the mixed signal oscilloscope in the mid 1990s and has continued to modify and improve upon the original idea since then. You can now choose from a large selection of band­widths, memory depths and sample rates to meet your needs.
What is an MSO?
Increasing digital content brought about by the wide use of micro­controllers, DSPs, and microprocessors has added to the challenges of design verification and debug. And the proliferation of low-cost serial buses makes it more difficult to trigger on and interpret the interaction of information as it flows through a system. To trace the path between initial symptom and root cause of a problem with a traditional 2- or 4-channel oscilloscope, you have to take multiple acquisitions to capture all the signals of interest. Each acquisition only gives you a narrow view of system behavior.
Agilent’s mixed signal oscilloscopes (MSOs) tightly correlate 2 or 4 analog channels with 16 logic timing channels. MSOs combine all of the measurement capabilities of a digital storage oscilloscope (DSO) with some of the measurement capabilities of a logic analyzer, along with serial protocol analysis — in a single instrument. With an MSO, you are able to see multiple time-aligned analog, parallel, digital, and serially decoded waveforms on the same display. MSOs allow you to trigger on any combination of analog and digital signals – and on many popular serial bus protocols. You can do all of this with a single, easy-to-use oscilloscope interface.
More Channels, More Memory, More Triggering
With the increasing digital content in today’s designs, it is often difficult to capture enough channels simultaneously with a traditional 2 or 4 channel scope. To further complicate matters, the analog and digital sides are often operating at drastically different speeds. The seamless integration of scope and logic timing channels in the MSO gives you an instrument with unprecedented capabili­ties. With the MSO you can trigger on any combination of its scope and logic channels with the low jitter performance you expect from an oscilloscope. Now you can capture, display, and analyze a variety of signals in one acquisition on one instrument screen, helping you narrow in more quickly on tough design problems. With mixed signal scopes, a 16-channel timing analyzer is seamlessly integrated into a full-featured scope. It’s now easy to measure a combination of signal types and speeds all at once, including slow analog slow analog, fast digital, or baseband RF.

The Agilent 6014L Series digital storage oscilloscopes (DSOs) offer four channels of measurements in a compact, rack-mountable 1U­high form factor, giving engineers a space-efficient way to integrate oscilloscopes into their test systems.
Powerful Acquisition with MegaZoom III Deep Memory
Consistent with other Agilent oscilloscopes the deep memory that is available in the 6000L Series Low Profile oscilloscope is based on MegaZoom technology. 2 Mpt of MegaZoom deep memory comes standard so you can capture long, non-repeating signals, while maintaining high sample rates and good timing resolution.
Mixed Signal Analysis Option
If you work with both analog and digital circuitry, the Agilent 6000L Series oscilloscope can help you see more signal activity in your designs. You can upgrade the 6000L Series oscilloscope to a 4 scope + 16 logic timing channel mixed signal oscilloscope (MSO). Agilent’s mixed signal oscilloscopes (MSOs) tightly correlate 4 analog chan­nels with 16 logic timing channels. With an MSO, you are able to see multiple time-aligned analog, parallel, digital, and serially decoded waveforms on the same display.
Easy System Integration
Rack mount brackets and rack rails are standard with every unit and because the units have side and rear air vents (no top or bottom air vents) other instruments can be mounted directly above or below them. There is built-in web server to provide remote access and con­trol of the instrument via a standard Java-enabled web browser on your computer. There is also a no-cost optional secure environment mode that provides the highest level of security by ensuring that internal memory is clear of all setup and trace settings. Because the 6000L Series Oscilloscope is LXI class C compliant and is 100% com­patible with 6000A Series Oscilloscope it enables an easy transition from development to manufacturing. Engineers can use the LXI class C compliant 6000A Series portable oscilloscope during the R&D phase, using the display, keypad and knobs. When your product moves to manufacturing, you can use a system-optimized 6000L Series LXI oscilloscope without a display.

Agilent’s Infiniium oscilloscopes combine ease of use and the right specifications with a broad feature set to help you get your job done faster. If you are tired of spending 80 percent of your lab time fight­ing your instrumentation and only 20 percent making meaningful measurements, Infiniium is the scope for you.
Industry-Leading MegaZoom Deep Memory
MegaZoom is Agilent’s unique, patented technology that gives you the advantages of deep memory without the usual drawbacks. MegaZoom deep memory lets you capture a full cycle of your sys- tem’s operation and responsively zoom in on specific areas of inter­est. MegaZoom deep memory captures long records with fast waveform updates, minimizing dead-time between acquisitions.
Signal Integrity
If you are concerned about accurate reproduction of your signals as they appear on your device under test, you need the best end-to-end measurement system starting at the probe tip. The 1156A 1.5 GHz single-ended active probe is uniquely designed for a flat frequency response over the entire probe bandwidth, eliminating the distor­tion and frequency-dependent loading effects that are present in probes that have an in-band resonance. The InfiniiMax 1130A
1.5 GHz differential/single-ended active probe system builds on this
technology by providing a variety of flexible probe heads to gain access to the most difficult to access test points.
Open Windows XP Pro Interface
Infiniium’s intuitive Windows-based graphical user interface (GUI), coupled with its analog-like control knobs, puts the scopes’ powerful measurements, waveform math functions, advanced analysis capa­bilities, and triggering at your fingertips. Infiniium’s open Windows XP Professional architecture is a robust environment for installing third-party or custom analysis software applications inside the oscilloscope for the most expansive one-box test solution. The open architecture enables all the standard PC connectivity you are famil­iar with, making it easy to share your work and communicate your results. Infiniium features an email-ontrigger function that will send an email with date and time stamp in addition to an attached screen image to any email account in the world once a trigger event occurs. Use a Java™ – Venabled Web browser to share access with team members working remotely from their very own PC.
Available Add On Application-specific Solutions
The PC platform of the Infiniium enables it to be the perfect place to run your software application right on the instrument. Agilent has created a wide selection of applications, available as add on options (either before or after purchase) to help take advantage of that PC power and get you further down the road to your end product.

Superior Signal Integrity and Probing for Your Application
The superior signal integrity, probing and application software selection of Agilent Technologies’ Infiniium DSO/DSA80000B Series and InfiniiMax II probing system will lead to improved measure­ments and increased design margins.
The signal integrity advantages of Agilent’s Infiniium 80000B Series Scopes and InfiniiMax Probing System include the industry’s lowest noise floor, lowest jitter measurement f loor, lowest trigger jit­ter and flattest frequency response. These foundational capabilities are crucial for achieving accurate and repeatable measurements. These superior signal integrity capabilities come from Agilent’s RFdesign experience, proprietary packaging technologies and unique CMOS ADC architecture. Superior signal integrity maxi­mizes engineer’s design margins by not wasting any measurement accuracy due to the poor noise, jitter or frequency response of the scope or probing system.

Meeting Your Growing Need for More Bandwidth
Today’s high data-rate signals have significant frequency content well beyond a real-time oscilloscope’s 3 dB bandwidth. A high band­width scope does not alone guarantee an accurate representation of your waveform. Careful design of the DCA-J equivalent time sam­pling oscilloscope’s frequency response (both amplitude and phase) minimizes distortion such as overshoot and ringing allowing the most precise signal analysis available from 50 Mb/s to over 40 Gb/s.
Four Instruments in One
The 86100C Infiniium DCA-J can be viewed as four high-powered instruments in one:
• A general-purpose wide-bandwidth sampling oscilloscope; the new PatternLock triggering significantly enhances the usability as a general purpose scope
• A digital communications analyzer; the new Eyeline Mode feature adds a powerful new tool to eye diagram analysis
• A time domain reflectometer
• A jitter and amplitude interference analyzer
In addition the 86100C Infiniium DCA-J can measure:
• Relative Intensity Noise (RIN) of lasers modulated with industry­standard PRBS signals
• Characterize the jitter spectrum of clock or data signals found in many computer architectures
• Lock its clock recovery onto Source Spectrum Clocking (SSC) signals
Configurable to Meet Your Needs
The 86100C supports a wide range of modules for testing both optical and electrical signals. Select modules to get the specific bandwidth and sensitivity you need.

Optical/Transmission
Signal Integrity Analysis
The unique combination of wide bandwidth and low noise makes the DCA-J the most precise signal integrity analyzer available. Accurate eye-diagram analysis is essential for characterizing the quality of transmitters used from 50 Mb/s to 40 Gb/s and the DCA-J is designed specifically for the complex task of analyzing digital wave­forms. Compliance mask and parametric testing can be performed with the touch of a single button.
Jitter and Amplitude Interference Analysis
Extremely wide bandwidth, low intrinsic jitter, and advanced analy­sis algorithms yield the highest accuracy in jitter measurements. As data rates increase in both electrical and optical applications, decomposition of jitter and amplitude interference into its constituent components is becoming more critical. It provides critical insight for jitter and amplitude budgeting and performance optimization in device and system designs. Many emerging standards require jitter decomposition for compliance. The DCA-J provides simple, one button setup and execution of advanced waveform analysis. Jitter Mode decomposes jitter and amplitude interference into its constituent components and presents jitter data in various insightful displays. Jitter Mode operates at all data rates the DCA-J supports. The 86100C brings several key attributes to jitter analysis:
• Very low intrinsic jitter (both random and deterministic) translates to the lowest jitter noise floor available providing unmatched jitter measurement sensitivity
• Wide bandwidth measurement channels with very low intrinsic jitter allow jitter and interference analysis on all data rates to 40 Gb/s and beyond
• Optimized frequency response (magnitude and phase) results in more accurate waveform representation
Internal Triggering Through Clock Recovery
Typically an external timing reference is used to trigger an equiva­lent time sampling oscilloscope to the test signal. In cases where a trigger signal is not available, clock recovery modules with adjustable PLL loop bandwidth are used to derive a timing reference directly from the waveform and provide golden PLL functionality for testing to industry standards.
PatternLock Triggering
The Enhanced Trigger Option (Option 001) enables the DCA-J to generate a trigger at the repetition of the input data pattern – a pattern trigger. PatternLock automatically detects the pattern length, data rate and clock rate enabling the 86100C to behave more like a real-time oscilloscope in terms of user experience. Users that are familiar with real-time oscilloscopes, but perhaps less so with equivalent time sampling scopes will be able to ramp up quickly.
Time Domain Reflectometry/Time Domain Transmission (TDR/TDT)
High-speed design starts with the physical structure. The transmis­sion and reflection properties of electrical channels and components must be characterized to ensure sufficient signal integrity.
Use TDR and TDT to optimize microstrip lines, PC board
traces, SMA edge launchers and coaxial cables.
Calibration techniques, unique to the DCA-J, provide the high­est precision by removing cabling and fixturing effects from the measurement results. Translation of TDR data to complete single­ended, differential, and mixed mode S-parameters are available through the N1930A Physical Layer Test System software.
For specifications and ordering information refer to pages 76-79.

Jitter Mode
Jitter Mode decomposes jitter and amplitude interference into its constituent components and presents jitter data in various insight­ful displays. Jitter Mode operates at all data rates the DCA-J sup­ports, removing the traditional data rate limitations from complex jitter analysis. The DCA-J brings several key attributes to jitter analysis:
• Very low intrinsic jitter (both random and deterministic) trans­lates to a very low jitter noise floor which provides unmatched jitter measurement sensitivity
• Wide bandwidth measurement channels deliver very low intrin­sic data dependent jitter and allow analysis of jitter on all data rates to 40 Gb/s and beyond
• PatternLock triggering technology provides sampling efficiency that makes jitter measurements very fast
Analysis functionality is segmented into three software pack­age options. Option 200 is the enhanced jitter analysis software, and Option 201 is the advanced waveform analysis software. Option 300 provides amplitude analysis and RIN. Option 200 includes:
• Decomposition of jitter into Total Jitter (TJ), Random Jitter (RJ),
Deterministic Jitter (DJ), Periodic Jitter (PJ), Data Dependent Jitter (DDJ), Duty Cycle Distortion (DCD), and Jitter induced by Intersymbol Interference (ISI)
• Various graphical and tabular displays of jitter data
• Export of jitter data to convenient delimited text format
• Save/recall of jitter database
• Jitter frequency spectrum
• Isolation and analysis of Sub-Rate Jitter (SRJ), that is, periodic
jitter that is at an integer sub-rate of the bitrate
• Bathtub curve display
• Adjustable total jitter probability
As bit rates increase, channel effects cause significant eye closure. Many new devices and systems are employing equalization and pre/de-emphasis to compensate for channel effects. Option 201 Advanced Waveform Analysis will provide key tools to enable design and test of devices and systems that must deal with difficult channel effects:
• Capture of long single valued waveforms. PatternLock triggering
and the waveform append capability of Option 201 enable very accurate pulse train data sets up to 2 x 10
23
bits long
• Equalization. The DCA-J can take a long single valued waveform
and route it through an equalizer algorithm (default or user defined) and display the resultant equalized waveform in real time. The user can simultaneously view the input (distorted) and output (equalized) waveforms
• Interface to MatLab® analysis capability
Option 300 includes:
• Decomposition of amplitude interference into total interference
(TI), deterministic interference (DI), random noise (RN), data dependent interference (DDI), inter-symbol interference (ISI), and periodic interference (PI)
• Various graphical and tabular displays of interference
measurements
• Relative Intensity Noise (RIN 1 level or RIN OMA) using
square-wave or industry-standard PRBS patterns
• Q-factor measurement
Option 300 requires options 200 (enhanced jitter software) and 001 (enhanced trigger hardware).
Internal Triggering Through Clock Recovery
Typically an external timing reference is used to synchronize the oscilloscope to the test signal. In cases where a trigger signal is not available, clock recovery modules are available to derive a timing reference directly from the waveform to be measured.
The 83496B provides the highest performance/flexibility as it is capable of operation at any data rate from 50 Mb/s to 13.5 Gb/s, on single-ended and differential electrical signals, single mode (1250 to 1620 nm) and multimode (780 to 1330 nm) optical signals, with extremely low residual jitter. PLL loop bandwidth is adjustable to provide optimal jitter filtering according to industry test standards.
Stimulus Response Testing Using the Agilent N490xA/B Bit Error Ratio Tester
Error performance analysis represents an essential part of digital transmission test. The DCA-J and Agilent N490xA/B Bit Error Ratio Tester error performance analyzer come together to create a power­ful test solution where two instruments together can perform mea­surements that would otherwise be impossible.
Transitioning from the Agilent 83480A or 86100A/B to the Infiniium DCA-J
The 86100C Infiniium DCA-J has been designed to be a virtual drop­in replacement for the Agilent 83480A digital communications ana­lyzer and Agilent 54750A wide-bandwidth oscilloscope. All modules used in the Agilent 83480A, 54750A, and 86100A/B can also be used in the 86100C Infiniium DCA-J. Some newer modules (such as the 86116C and the 83496B) work only in the 86100C Infiniium DCA-J.
Eyeline Mode
Eyeline Mode is a new feature only available in the DCA-J that pro­vides insight into the effects of specific bit transitions within a data pattern. The unique view assists diagnosis of device or system fail­ures do to specific transitions or sets of transitions within a pattern. When combined with mask limit tests, Eyeline Mode can quickly isolate the specific bit that caused a mask violation.
Traditional triggering methods on an equivalent time sampling scope are quite effective at generating eye diagrams. However, these eye diagrams are made up of samples whose timing relationship to the data pattern is effectively random, so a given eye will be made up of samples from many different bits in the pattern taken with no specific timing order. The result is that amplitude versus time tra­jectories of specific bits in the pattern are not visible. Also, averag­ing of the eye diagram is not valid, as the randomly related samples will effectively average to zero.
Eyeline Mode uses PatternLock triggering to build up an eye diagram from samples taken sequentially through the data pattern. This maintains a specific timing relationship between samples and allows Eyeline Mode to draw the eye based on specific bit trajecto­ries. Effects of specific bit transitions can be investigated, and aver­aging can be used with the eye diagram.
Measurements
The following measurements are available from the tool bar, as well as the pull down menus. The available measurements depend on the DCA-J operating mode.
Jitter Mode
Jitter Mode requires Option 001 Enhanced Trigger hardware. There are three analysis software packages for the DCA-J. Option 200 is the enhanced jitter analysis software, Option 201 is the advanced wave­form analysis software, and option 300 is the advanced amplitude analysis software.

10400B Passive Divider Probe Family
The 10400B probe family are reliable general-purpose high perfor­mance passive probes that replace the 10400A family of probes. These probes include a no-slip browser. The crown point of the browser digs in to solder and won’t slip while the pogo pin allows small hand movements without losing contact.
The 10400B family of probes also comes complete with a range of accessories. For grounding, there’s an alligator ground lead for general­purpose probing, 4 spring grounds for high frequency measurements and a socketed ground lead. The accessories also include 2 IC clips for probing 50 mil SMDs and a dual-lead adapter so that both the probe tip and ground can easily be connected to surface mount devices.
The miniature probe has a narrow, sharp tip that is good for prob­ing SMDs. The handle of the probe can be unscrewed and pulled back on the cable to reduce the probe’s mass and size. This makes attaching to fine pitch ICs and small devices easier. For connection to fine pitch ICs order the Wedge probe adapter or the 0.5 mm IC clips.
The 10400 family of probes are built and tested for high relia­bility. The cable has a Kevlar strengthener for added pull strength and the general purpose retractable hook tip is made from durable music wire. The probe tips are replaceable.
See page 87 for compatible SMT probing solutions.

• Easy connection to 0.5 mm, 0.65 mm TQFP and PQFP packages
• Reliable contact with little chance of shorting to adjacent pins
• Mechanically noninvasive
• Can be inserted while the board is active
• 3, 8, and 16-signal versions
Wedge Probe Adapter
Precise Problem-free Probing
The Agilent Wedge probe adapter solves the problem of connecting your scope or logic analyzer to fine pitch thin quad flat pack (TQFP) and plastic quad flat pack (PQFP) surface mount ICs. It provides accurate, mechanically noninvasive and reliable electrical contact to
0.5 and 0.65 mm IC packages, with little chance of shorting. It is available in 3-, 8-, and 16-signal versions.
Easy to Insert, Then Stays Put
It works by inserting compressible dual conductors between adja­cent IC pins. The flexible conductors conform to the size and shape of each leg to ensure tight contact. It’s then a simple matter to con­nect your scope or logic analyzer to the Agilent Wedge.
Electrical Reliability
The Wedge’s unique design delivers secure redundant contact on each pin, with little chance of shorting to adjacent pins. The redun­dant physical connection created by two contact points on each pin of the IC and its short electrical length dramatically increases the reliability of the electrical connection. Since the Agilent Wedge doesn’t latch directly onto the IC and doesn’t require expansion beforehand (as a clip does), it can be inserted while the board is active. Plus, it’s mechanically noninvasive so it won’t damage your device under test.
10075A and 10467-68701 0.5 mm IC Clip Accessory Kit
The 10075A includes four 0.5 mm IC clips (10467-68701) and two dual-lead adapters for use with passive probes. Plug the probe tip into one end of the adapter and connect the IC clip to the other end.

1156A/57A/58A Active Probe, 1.5/2.5/4.0 GHz
The Agilent 1156A, 1157A, and 1158A family of active probes offers R & D engineers the performance they need to probe small geome­tries in hard-to-reach areas on the DUT. These probes were designed specifically for the Infiniium or 6000 Series oscilloscopes.
As the speeds in your design increase, you may notice more overshoot, ringing, and other perturbations when connecting an oscilloscope probe. Probes form a resonant circuit where they con­nect to the device. If this resonance is within the bandwidth of the oscilloscope probe you are using, it will be difficult to determine if the measurement perturbations are due to your circuit or the probe.
Agilent is the only company that has overcome the resonance formed by the connection of a probe to a device. The Agilent 1156/57/58A probes optimize performance to make your job easier.
1155A Low Mass Active Probe for Surface­Mount Devices
The two-channel 1155A low mass active probe for Infiniium oscillo­scopes has a probe tip that weighs less than 1 gram making it ideal for attaching to fine pitch ICs and probing surface mount com­ponents.

Signal Analysis
Agilent Technologies offers a complete line of analyzers to provide frequency, time, order, angle, and modulation-domain measurement capability. The following section is devoted primarily to the frequency domain.
Signal/Spectrum Analyzers
Modern day analyzers offer both swept­tuned and FFT architectures. In addition they also offer high frequency range, wide dynamic range, and excellent overall RF characteristics. Many offer measurement personalities and applications to demodu­late signals based on standards, and can be configured with easy to use one-button pass/fail testing capabilities. The following are just some of the measurements that can be made with signal/spectrum analyzers: absolute and relative frequency, absolute and relative amplitude, noise, spurious and distortion products, AM, FM, pulsed modu­lation, and digital modulation.
English URL www.agilent.com/find/products
Dynamic Signal (Fourier) Analyzers
Fourier analyzers offer fast, high-resolution spectrum and network analysis. Unlike conventional swept analyzers, Fourier­based analyzers can measure dynamic signals because they measure all frequen­cies simultaneously, not one at a time. Fourier analyzers are especially useful on low-frequency signals (<100 kHz) or where very fast measurements are desired. Applications include acoustic, modal, vibration, or rotating machine analysis.
Vector Signal Analyzers
VSAs provide capabilities throughout the RF range. They offer fast, high-resolution spectrum measurements, demodulation, and advanced time-domain analysis. They are especially useful for characterizing complex signals such as burst, transient, or modulated signals used in communications, video, broadcast, sonar, and ultrasound imaging applications. The vector signal ana­lyzer is also capable of in-depth modulation analysis as it captures signal phase along with magnitude.
EMC/EMI Solutions
Based on a spectrum analyzer platform the E7400A series EMC analyzer provides the tools required for pre-compliance EMI measurements to 26.5 GHz for conducted and radiated emissions.
Using any of the PSA Series spectrum analyzers as the measurement engine, the EMI Measurement Receiver adds the N9039A RF Pre-selector for full CISPR 16-1-1 compliance measurement capability.

High Performance Spectrum Analyzers, PSA Series
Signal Analysis
PSA Series High-Performance Spectrum Analyzer
The Agilent PSA series offers high-performance spectrum analysis up to 50 GHz with powerful one-button measurements, a versatile feature set, and a leading-edge combination of flexibility, speed, accuracy, bandwidth and dynamic range.
Measurement Accuracy
The PSA Series’ modern instrument architecture features an all­digital IF section, a highly accurate internal reference signal, and automatic internal alignment processes to achieve unsurpassed industry-leading accuracy, guaranteed by Agilent’s high standards for meeting our published specifications.
Measurement Speed and Dynamic Range
The PSA Series spectrum analyzer is designed to optimize measure­ments for speed and dynamic range. With a 2-dB step attenuator and 160 resolution bandwidth settings (in 10% steps), you can customize each of your measurements to achieve the best combination of speed and dynamic range. Decrease adjacent channel power ratio measurement time with the industry’s fastest ACPR measurement.
Swept Tuned or FFT Analysis
With the all-digital IF, the PSA can perform both swept or FFT measurements. FFT capability can significantly reduce the sweep time in narrow span measurements and low-level spur searches.
Analysis Bandwidth
For center frequencies up to 26.5 GHz, use PSA option 122 (80 MHz BW Digitizer) to analyze signals up to 80 MHz wide and with 78 dB of image-free dynamic range. Analysis of digitally modulated signals is enhanced by the superb digital IF performance, which produces residual EVM of <1%. Capture up to 1.28 seconds of signal data at 80 MHz bandwidth, or record longer capture times at narrower spans. For signals up to 40 MHz wide, use the PSA Option 140 (40 MHz BW Digitizer). For measurements above 3 GHz, PSA Option 123 (Switchable MW Preselector Bypass), allows for superb frequency response and phase linearity in the microwave bands.
Phase Noise Optimization
Increase the dynamic range of your close-to-carrier measurements with the phase noise optimization feature of the PSA Series. Depending on how close to or far from the carrier you are measur­ing, the PSA has different LO phase lock loop configurations to reduce phase noise and therefore increase the dynamic range of your measurement.
Gated Sweep
Analyze time varying signals such as pulsed RF, time division multiple access (TDMA), interleaved and burst-modulated with gated sweep capability. This type of time gating makes fast spectrum measurements on burst signals without interference from switching the carrier on and off.
EMC
Use the PSA to make conducted and radiated emissions measure­ments. Now available in every PSA are built-in CISPR and MIL-STD compliant EMI detectors and bandwidths.
One-Button Power Measurements
The PSA Series offers a standard suite of flexible, one-button RF and microwave power measurements with format based setups. With Power Suite, measurements that were once difficult and tedious to make are now executed with a single button press and provide easy­to-read results.
One-button measurements include:
• channel power
• occupied bandwidth
• adjacent channel power (ACP), fast ACP
• multi-carrier ACP
• power statistics (CCDF)
• harmonic distortion
• burst power
• third order intercept (TOI)
• spurious emissions
• spectrum emission mask
Format-based setups for:
• IS-95A • GSM/EDGE
• IS-95C • cdma2000
• 3GPP W-CDMA • PDC
• NADC • TETRA
Bluetooth • W-LAN HiperLAN/2
• W-LAN (802.11a/b/g) • UWB
• DVB-T • S-DMB
• J-STD-008 • FCC Part 15 Subpart F
Measurements Beyond Spectrum Analysis
The PSA Series offers a variety of optional measurement personali­ties to expand measurement capability. A measurement personality is a downloadable software program that can transform the spec­trum analyzer into another type of test instrument, essentially giving it another “personality”. You can make the most challenging measurements very easily and with the same instrument you use for spectrum analysis. Choose from over 16 measurement personalities to make phase noise measurements for oscillator tests, measure the noise figure of your amplifier, execute scalar network analysis, or even perform modulation analysis on your 2G, 2.5G, 3G or 3.5G signal. If you have a proprietary modulated signal that you want to test, you can use internal flexible digital modulation analysis personality or you can link the PSA to the 89601A vector signal analysis software for flexible demodulation and analysis.
• All-digital IF gives industry-leading accuracy and linearity
• Exceptionally fast low-level spur search
• One-button RF power measurements with format-based setups
• Over 16 optional built-in measurement personalities for phase
noise, noise figure and 2G through 3.5G digital modulation formats
• Optional 80 MHz analysis bandwidth with unsurpassed dynamic
range and flatness

Signal Analysis
Connectivity
The PSA Series has built-in capability to network with PCs, printers, software programs, and test systems. Features include IVI-COM drivers for developing measurement routines and collecting results, IntuiLink connectivity software to transfer measurement results and screen captures directly into Microsoft® Excel and Word, a floppy disk drive to store results and display data, and GPIB and 10 baseT LAN for SCPI programming. Additionally, a USB 2.0 device-side I/O interface is available for the high throughput data transfer. You can also operate the analyzer remotely, anywhere in the world, using our BenchLink Web Remote control software (Option 230).
Upgrade from the HP8566A/B or HP8568A/B Analyzer
The PSA Series spectrum analyzers offer programming code com­patibility with the Agilent 856x, 895x, and HP 8566A/B, 8568A/B legacy spectrum analyzers. Option 266 allows users with those legacy instruments to upgrade their automated test equipment (ATE) systems with modern and supportable ESA-E or PSA Series spectrum analyzers as the HP 8566A/B, 8568A/B instruments reach the end of their formal support lives. Additionally, PSA Option 124 provides 8566A/B, 8568A/B analog Y-axis video out capability.
Measurements Beyond 50 GHz
With optional external mixing capability (Option AYZ) along with harmonic mixers, the Agilent PSA (E4440A/46A/47A/48A) can measure signals up to 325 GHz. The PSA Option AYZ will support Agilent 11970 Series millimeter harmonic mixers, Agilent 11974 Series preselected millimeter harmonic mixers as well as third party mixers. The PSA Option AYZ offers patented signal identification methods to help you identify true signals to be test more efficiently, and amplitude correction to compensate for conversion loss incurred in external mixers. It also supplies bias voltage with adjustable current for third-party mixers requiring biasing to maxi­mize signal conversion.
Gated Sweep
Analyze time-varying signals such as pulsed RF, time division multi­ple access (TDMA), interleaved and burst-modulated signals with gated sweep capability that is now a standard feature of all the PSA Series spectrum analyzers. The gated sweep capability enables the PSA to perform fast and accurate spectrum measurements on burst signals without interference from switching the carrier on and off. The gate length can be easily adjusted between 10 µs and 500 ms, and the gate delay from 0 to 500 ms. Users can choose between external TTL trigger, variable level trigger, or burst trigger to start the PSA gated sweep according to the nature of time-varying signals under test.
External Source Control (Option 215)
The external source control measurement personality, available on all the PSA Series models (E4440A/43A/45A/46A/47A/48A), enables these high-performance spectrum analyzers to control Agilent PSG or ESG signal generators for scalar network analysis up to 50 GHz. A variety of controlled sweep modes, including standard sweep, harmonic sweep, offset sweep, and power sweep, provides the optimal test tools for characterizing different components. Wide dynamic range (up to and beyond 109 dB) allows accurate measure­ments for a component with the presence of high and low power levels at the same time. One-button normalization and open/short calibration help to remove the systemic frequency response errors incurred in the transmission and return loss measurements, respec­tively, to further improve the measurement accuracy.

PSA-based Measuring Receiver, N5531S
Signal Analysis
N5531S Measuring Receiver
The Agilent N5531S measuring receiver is comprised of a PSA high-performance spectrum analyzer with Option 233 (Built-in measuring receiver personality), a P-series precision power meter (N1911A/12A), and an N5532A sensor module. It combines multiple precision measurement functions into one compact, integrated system that set the new standards for metrology grade of RF, microwave, and millimeter-wave signal measurement up to 50 GHz. The available key measurements include: frequency counter, absolute RF power, TRFL, AM depth, FM deviation, M deviation, modulation rate, and modulation distortion. Additionally, audio measurements are also available (with Option 107 being installed to the PSA), which include audio frequency counter, audio level, and audio distortion/SINAD measurements.
Metrology and Calibration Applications
The N5531S is a successor to the legacy 8902A measuring receiver and extends the frequency coverage to 50 GHz. The N5531S offers superior accuracy, exceedingly wide dynamic range, repeatability, and traceability mandated by metrology and calibration labs. By placing the receiver measurements and controls directly into the PSA, the need for an external computer is eliminated – providing a more compact measuring receiver system.
The built-in measuring receiver personality (Option 233) installed in the PSA enables users to set the measurement parame­ters and to initiate the measurement via the PSA’s front panel. One button pressing can switch between the measuring receiver mode to other modes, such as spectrum analysis, easily and quickly. Measurement results are shown on the PSA’s display.
Combining with P-Series power meter’s accuracy and the PSA’s outstanding linearity, the N5531S provides superior absolute RF amplitude specifications to meet or exceed the most challenging requirements for calibrating the signal sources. The excellent sensi­tivity of the N5531S in tuned RF level (TRFL) measurements allows the users to calibrate step attenuators with the widest dynamic range within the demanded measurement uncertainty and speed.
As the input signal level to the measurement receiver decreas­es, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) will have increasingly significant contribution to the measurement uncertainty. Taking the SNR into account, the N5531S provides comprehensive TRFL level accuracy specifications across the entire measurement range, which offers realistic confidence for your measurement results.
• Absolute RF power: Accuracy of a modern digital power meter combined with a specially designed sensor module using 848x thermal-couple power sensor
• Tuned RF level (TRFL): measurement sensitivity of as low as –140 dBm
1
with level accuracy exceeding source/attenuator
calibration requirements
• Frequency counter: 0.001 Hz frequency resolution and up to –100 dBm sensitivity (manual mode)
• Analog modulation analysis: AM, FM, and M to verify correct source modulation index and distortion
• Optional audio analysis capabilities with high-impedance audio input
• N5532A sensor modules with single input connection up to 50 GHz for accuracy, productivity, and repeatability
• Remote control through SCPI commands
The N5531S offers superb analog modulation analysis capabil­ities that enable the users to quantify their signal sources’ modula­tion accuracy at the metrology-grade level for the carrier signal frequency as high as 50 GHz. The measurement parameters, such as filter bandwidth and the number of averages, can be manually set by pressing the PSA front panel keys to optimize the modulation analysis. Different speed settings also allow the users for the best compromise between the measurement speed and accuracy.
The optional audio analysis capability of the N5531S (PSA Option 107), based on the latest digital signal processing technolo­gies, provides ideal tool to characterize audio signals. A large set of preconditioning filters, including the CCITT filter (PSA Option 23B), helps users to achieve the best possible audio analysis and to mea­sure their audio signals against the regulations.

As the N5531S measuring receiver consists of a PSA high-per­formance spectrum analyzer and a P-Series power meter, its users can gain full benefits from the stand-alone instruments. With other optional measurement personalities, the PSA can help you to ana­lyze complex digitally modulated signals used in the modern wire­less communications, such as W-CDMA, HSDPA/HSUPA, cdma2000, TD-SCDMA, and GSM/EDGE, or to conduct one-button tests for phase noise and noise figure.
N5532A Sensor Modules with Single Input Connection
Four types of sensor modules were designed specifically for use with the N5531S measuring receiver to cover different frequency bands: N5532A-504 (100 kHz to 4.2 GHz), N5532A-518 (10 MHz to 18 GHz), N5532A-526 (30 MHz to 26.5 GHz), and N5532A-550 (30 MHz to 50 GHz). With these sensor modules, you can characterize the absolute amplitudes of a signal without switching back and forth between the power meter and PSA’s RF input, which helps to ensure your mea­surement integrity. While the N5532A sensor module have exactly same form factor as those used for the 8902A (11722A or 11792A), they have been mechanically and electronically improved for better reliability, sensibility, and repeatability.
Each N5532A sensor module is shipped with its specific cali­bration factor data file that will be loaded and saved to the PSA to ensure the highest possible measurement accuracy.

8560EC Series Spectrum Analyzers
The 8560EC series portable spectrum analyzers offer the measure­ment capabilities and performance traditionally found only in larger, more expensive benchtop analyzers. These spectrum analyzers combine outstanding phase noise, sensitivity, 1 Hz resolution band­widths and wide dynamic range in a Class 3 MIL-rugged package built to withstand harsh environmental conditions.
Capabilities for RF Communications
The ability to measure adjacent channel power (ACP) on wireless telephones, pagers and other transmitters is critical in both R&D and manufacturing. The 8560EC series spectrum analyzers offer a complete solution for ACP testing of burst carrier signals using digital modulation such as is used in NADC-TDMA, GSM, DECT, CT2-CAI, PDC and PHS systems. Many of the implementation diffi­culties of the established standards have been addressed, providing fast, accurate and easy-to-use ACP measurement capability. Measure W-CDMA adjacent channel power ratio (ACPR) with a dynamic range of at least 70 dB using the 8563E-K35 ACPR test set.
Another standard feature is the ability to measure from 0.10 to
99.99 percent occupied bandwidth.
Additionally, the carrier power and channel power measure­ments for both continuous and burst signals are also available as the standard features of the 8560EC Series spectrum analyzers.
Time-gated signal analysis is another standard feature that allows you to easily measure time-varying signals such as pulsed RF, time-division multiple access (TDMA), interleaved and burst­modulated. The 85902A burst carrier trigger can supply a TTL trigger signal.
8560EC series specifications have been enhanced. Now, you can get better phase noise, sensitivity, dynamic range and frequency response from this midrange performance portable spectrum analyz­er family.
The 8562EC spectrum analyzer provides a 13.2 GHz frequency range with increased dynamic range and third-order intercept (TOI) capability. This allows wireless communications engineers to test high-performance components in burst operation systems.
With the 85672A spurious response measurements utility, you can use 8560EC series spectrum analyzers to make fast and easy spurious response tests.
For more information on RF communications measurement capabilities, refer to page 114.
Fast Digital Resolution Bandwidths
Digitally-implemented resolution bandwidths of 1, 3, 10, 30 and 100 Hz allow the 8560EC series spectrum analyzers to sweep from 3 to 600 times faster than is possible with comparable analog filters. A narrow 5:1 shape factor allows you to view close-in, low-level signals easily. Digital bandwidths also provide the spectrum analyzer with a full 100 dB on-screen calibrated display.
PC Software for 8560EC Series
The Agilent BenchLink Spectrum Analyzer PC software provides an easy-to-use communications link between your PC and the 8560EC series spectrum analyzers. Taking full advantage of the Windows interface, you can easily transfer screen images or trace data via the GPIB interface, thereby making it easy to capture, analyze and document measurement results in your PC. Order Option B70 or E4444A for this PC software.
Precision Frequency and Amplitude
Measure frequencies accurately using the built-in frequency counter. A standard precision frequency reference, with an aging rate of 1 x 10
–7
per year, and 1 Hz counter resolution provide confidence in mea­surement accuracy. At 1 GHz, frequency accuracy of ±135 Hz after a 15-minute warmup is achieved.
Amplitude measurement uncertainty can be reduced using the amplitude correction (AMPCOR) feature. AMPCOR allows you to enter up to 200 amplitude correction points to compensate for sources of amplitude uncertainty, such as cable losses, preamplifier gain and spectrum analyzer frequency response. After developing a table of correction data, amplitudes that have been referenced to a power meter can be read directly on the spectrum analyzer display.
Digitized, Fast Time-Domain Sweeps
Digitized fast time-domain (zero span) sweeps use markers, trace math, trace storage and get hardcopy output, for measurements such as rise/fall times, pulse widths and time between events.
• Continuous 30 Hz to 2.9, 13.2, 26.5, 40, or 50 GHz sweeps
• Resolution bandwidths of 1 Hz to 100 Hz digitally implemented for measurement speed
• Best-in-class performance in phase noise and dynamic range
• Precision timebase and 1 Hz counter resolution
• Adjacent channel power, channel power, carrier power and gated video measurements standard

8560EC RF Spectrum Analyzer
The 8560EC offers excellent performance for RF design, manufac­turing and service applications. The 8560EC has a frequency range of 30 Hz to 2.9 GHz. It has synthesized tuning for drift-free accurate measurements.
8562EC RF Spectrum Analyzer
The 8562EC is a midrange performance spectrum analyzer that pro­vides the frequency and dynamic range needed for high-speed digi­tal wireless communication applications. It allows manufacturing and R&D engineers to test network components with state-of-the-art performance. The 8562EC has a frequency range of 30 Hz to 13.2 GHz, which covers the spur-search ranges specified by leading standards organizations in Europe and in the United States.
8563EC Microwave Spectrum Analyzer
The 8563EC extends the outstanding features and capabilities of the 8560EC Series RF spectrum analyzers into the microwave frequency range. The 8563EC has a standard frequency range of 9 kHz to
26.5 GHz (preselected from 2.75 GHz to 26.5 GHz), with optional
low-end frequency coverage to 30 Hz. The image-enhanced, double­balanced harmonic mixer of the 8563EC achieves noise-figure per­formance similar to that of a fundamentally-mixed front end.
8564EC and 8565EC Millimeter-Wave Spectrum Analyzers
Whether you want to measure the third harmonic of a 15 GHz oscillator or the noise sidebands of a 38 GHz carrier, the 8564EC and 8565EC make spectrum analysis easier than ever before. A single coaxial con­nection is all you need to measure signals from 30 Hz to 50 GHz. Prese­lection minimizes images and multiple responses at higher frequencies.
The 8564EC has a frequency range of 9 kHz to 40 GHz, the 8565EC of 9 kHz to 50 GHz. Both have optional low-end coverage to 30 Hz and are preselected above 2.75 GHz.
8563E-K35 Adjacent Channel Power Ratio Test Set
Use this special option with the 8562EC/63EC/64EC/65EC spectrum analyzers to increase the dynamic range of ACP measurements. 8563E-K35 uses an alternate first converter mixer with custom filtering to increase the spectrum analyzer’s ACPR measurement dynamic range. The dynamic range becomes at least 70 dB for systems with a guard band between channels of 900 kHz or greater. This meets the needs of W-CDMA specifications. Control menus are integrated into the spectrum analyzer softkeys making the test set easy to use.
11970 Series and 11974 Series Millimeter-Wave Mixers
For millimeter-wave measurements1, preselection can be extended to 75 GHz using the 11974 mixers. Unpreselected frequency range can be extended to 110 GHz using the 11970 series mixers, and to 325 GHz using mixers from other manufacturers.
85620A Mass Memory Module
This standard plug-in module adds measurement personality capability, enough memory to store 100 traces, memory-card capability and computer capability, without an external controller. Create complex mea­surement routines and save them as single-key measurements stored on memory cards or in the module’s 128 KB of battery-backed RAM. A clock/calendar and automatic save and execute functions let you con­figure the spectrum analyzer for unattended, automatic measurements.
85629B Test and Adjustment Module
This accessory for the 8560EC/61EC/63EC (limited use on 8562EC/ 64EC) makes it easier to service your spectrum analyzer. The mod­ule plugs into the rear panel of the instrument and automates high­level diagnostics, self tests and adjustment procedures. It performs more than 1,000 troubleshooting adjustments. Readjustments are fast and accurate because the module controls internal analyzer settings as well as external test equipment.
85671A Phase Noise Measurement Utility
This downloadable program transforms your 8560EC Series spectrum analyzer into a phase noise tester. It eliminates the task of hand­drawing phase noise plots. To measure oscillator phase noise, you can generate graphs of phase noise (dBc/Hz) versus log offset frequency without having to manually tune to multiple frequency offsets. Other productivity features include direct phase noise readout, variable filtering (for controlling trade-offs between measurement repeatability and speed), calculation of RMS noise (displayed in radians and degrees), spot-frequency measurements (phase noise measurements at a single offset frequency) and digitized hardcopy and storage.
85672A Spurious Response Measurements Utility
The 85672A is a downloadable program on a card that inserts directly into any 8560EC Series spectrum analyzer. This test utility provides fast and easy spurious response test capability for all of 8560EC Series spectrum analyzers. Test setup time can be drastically reduced for manufacturing and R&D engineers with this one-button solution. 85672A offers five preprogrammed tests: third-order intermodulation product/third order intercept (TOI), harmonics and total-harmonic distortion (THD), discrete sideband spurs, general-spur search and mixing products.
Scalar Network Analysis Capability
The 85640A tracking generator used with the 8560EC covers 300 kHz to 2.9 GHz, providing 8560EC Series spectrum analyzers with scalar measurement capability.

Accurate and Easy-to-Use Power Measurements Using the 8560EC Series Spectrum Analyzers
Many wireless communications systems employ burst-carrier tech­niques such as time division multiple access (TDMA) and time division duplex (TDD) to maximize system capacity. The 8560EC series spectrum analyzers offer power measurements for both continuous and burst signals that are accurate, and easy to make. Measurement capability includes adjacent channel power (ACP), carrier power, channel power, and occupied bandwidth. These analyzers provide the greatest measurement flexibility and RF performance, making them powerful tools for R&D designers working with current wireless stan­dards, or on systems with standards still under development.
The 8562EC Spectrum Analyzer
The 8562EC Spectrum Analyzer was designed specifically for digital communications. Its frequency coverage of 13.2 GHz means that now you can use the same analyzer for harmonic and spurious testing both in- and out-of-band. The increased dynamic range and third­order intercept (TOI) capability allows wireless communications engineers to test high-performance components in burst operation systems. See page 111 for details.
Measurement Utility Increases Speed and Repeatability
The 85672A Spurious Response Measurements Utility makes mea­surements fast and easy with the touch of a button. Works on all 8560EC series spectrum analyzers. See page 111 for details.
Adjacent Channel Power
The ability to measure ACP on wireless telephones, pagers, and other transmitters is critical in R&D, manufacturing and in the field. The 8560EC series spectrum analyzers provide ACP measurements for a variety of wireless communication systems, including support for NADC-TDMA, PDC, and PHS digital formats. Many of the implementation difficulties of the established standards have been addressed, providing fast, accurate, and easy-to-use ACP measure­ments. Use an 8560EC series spectrum analyzer with the 8563EC­K35 APCR test set to meet the needs of the W-CDMA specifications.
In addition to the standard analog method for making ACP measurements (used for FM mobile telephones and continuous digi­tal formats), the analyzers support four other methods used for burst-carrier measurements of TDMA and TDD signals:
• Peak (for PDC and PHS)
• Two-bandwidth (for PDC)
• Time-gated (for NADC-TDMA)
• Burst-power (an Agilent proprietary method)
The burst-power method overcomes many of the problems of the other standards, and is suitable for all formats. These methods can easily be adapted to measure other transmitters besides those used for cellular or cordless telephones. Configuration parameters that can be set by the user include channel spacing and bandwidth, number of alternate channels, burst period and width, and values for root-raised-cosine frequency weighting. Measurement results can be displayed in both graphic and tabular formats for ease of data inter­pretation and documentation. Measurement accelerators are avail­able that give ACP results in just a few seconds, allowing real-time transmitter adjustments.
Carrier Power
The carrier power feature provides the user with a quick means of measuring the average “on” and “off” power of the burst carrier. This measurement is performed in the time domain, using zero span.
Channel Power
The channel power feature quickly provides the user with informa­tion on total power within a specified channel bandwidth, as well as power density within the channel. This feature greatly simpli­fies this common measurement, as the spectrum analyzer auto­matically performs the necessary integration across the desired frequency band.
Occupied Bandwidth
Occupied bandwidth is a way of determining the spectral spread of a signal. It is defined as the bandwidth which contains the specified percent of the total transmitted power. The user may specify the per­centage to be anywhere from 0.1 to 99.99 percent.
Burst Timing
Complete timing measurements can be made on the burst-carrier signal using digitized, fast time-domain (zero span) sweeps. Using sweep times as fast as 50 µs, edge times, burst width, and time between bursts can easily be measured.

Eliminating the Compromise Between Speed and Performance
The MXA signal analyzer drives signal and spectrum analysis to the next level by offering the highest performance in a midrange analyz­er and the industry’s fastest signal and spectrum analysis.
Fastest Signal Analysis
Design validation and manufacturing floor engineers and managers agree that measurement speed is most critical in achieving their test goals. With this in mind, Agilent continues to compare the MXA’s measurement speed against other signal and spectrum analyzers in the industry. The measurement results reveal that the MXA is 30 to 300% faster than other signal or spectrum analyzer regardless of the frequency range. Following are some key benchmark results.
• <14 ms W-CDMA ACLR fast mode measurement speed (= 0.2 dB)
• <5 ms marker peak search
• <51 ms tune, measure, and transfer over GPIB
• <75 ms measurement/mode switching speed for seamless switching between mobile WiMAX, W-CDMA, HSDPA/HSUPA, phase noise, and 89601A VSA (vector signal analysis) software
Highest Performance in a Midrange Signal Analyzer
Fast measurement speed doesn’t mean compromising dynamic range. The MXA has the best-in-class dynamic range:
• +15 dBm third-order intercept (TOI)
• –154 dBm/Hz displayed average noise level (DANL)
• 78 dB W-CDMA ACLR dynamic range
With a 2 dB step mechanical attenuator or optional 1 dB step electrical attenuator and 160 resolution bandwidth settings (in 10% incremental steps), the MXA provides you with the best combination of speed and dynamic range.
Electronic Attenuator
The optional 3 GHz electronic attenuator is able to withstand millions of switches. The combination of exceptional measurement speed, user-definable pass/fail capability, and excellent repeatability, due to an all digital IF technology, make the MXA ideal for high­volume, low-cost manufacturing.
25 MHz Analysis Bandwidth
Activate optional 25 MHz analysis bandwidth to make measurements for Mobile WiMAX, multi-carrier W-CDMA, and other wideband signals using:
• 802.16 OFDMA and W-CDMA measurement applications
• 89601A VSA software
• CCDF measurements up to 25 MHz that covers four carrier W-CDMA signal
• 90 Msamples/sec, 14 bit ADC
Fully Calibrated Preamplifiers up to 26.5 GHz

3.6, 8.4, 13.6 or 26.5 GHz
• Gain +20 dB from 100 kHz to 3.6 GHz and +35 dB from 3.6 to
26.5 GHz
Time Gating
Analyze time varying signals such as WiMAX, pulsed RF, time divi­sion multiple access (TDMA), and interleaved and burst-modulated signals with time gating capability. The Agilent MXA offers three types of time gating — gated LO (or gated sweep), gated video, and gated FFT:
• Gated LO offers the fastest time gating measurement for a full span of frequency
• Gated FFT offers the fastest time gating measurement within the span of analysis bandwidth (8 MHz standard, 25 MHz optional)
• Gated video offers the backward compatibility with Agilent ESA, 856x and 859x series spectrum analyzers
List Sweep
Save measurement time by programming the MXA analyzer for fast power measurements using the list sweep feature. Remotely extract amplitude values at known frequencies by making a list of single­point measurements in advance. The MXA can also run through the measurements without requiring you to reset the analyzer for each iteration of a measurement cycle. You can:
• Make multiple zero span measurements at multiple frequencies
• Choose different resolution bandwidths, video bandwidths, detector types, and sweep times at different sweep points
• Obtain peak and average power measurement result

89601A/ 89601AN/ 89601N12 Vector Signal Analysis Software
Vector Signal Analysis Software, 89600 Series
Signal Analysis
English URL www.agilent.com/find/products
The Agilent 89600 series vector signal analysis software character­izes complex modulated, time varying signals with detailed and simultaneous spectrum, modulation and time waveform analysis tools. Use these tools to uncover signal anomalies you couldn’t see before.
Measurements include: time, gated time, spectrum, power spectral density, CCDF and CDF, auto-correlation and more. These tools help you easily troubleshoot pulsed and hopping signals.
The 89600 VSA software offers markers which display current location, calculate offset (delta) values, provide frequency counter capability, integrate between two lines to determine bandpower, cal­culate occupied bandwidth (OBW), let you set up zones to calculate adjacent channel power (ACPR), and conduct limit tests. Markers can be coupled across displays (up to six simultaneously), allowing you to “walk” through your signal and see its behavior in multiple domains — a very powerful and useful feature.
Characterize intentionally and unintentionally-modulated AM/PM/FM signals in both the frequency and time domains. Check phase, amplitude and frequency trajectories of pulsed signals, make phase noise measurements, uncover interference and more.
The 89600 VSA software lets you capture your digitized signal in your measurement hardware. Then, link it to a supported Agilent signal generator for signal stimulus. Record the signal at one frequency, and using the zoom mode feature, transfer the signal to the generator at a different frequency. Control key features of the signal generator from the 89600 VSA software front panel.
The 89600 VSA software comes fully equipped to control and process two base band or two RF channels. Powerful and sophisticated trace data provide you with the basic capabilities to perform MIMO-analysis. Use these tools to develop and analyze com­plex multi-antenna, radar, or signal surveillance systems. Check hardware specifications to determine which hardware platform configurations support multiple channels (literature #5989-1753EN.)
Take advantage of Agilent’s flexible licensing capability for the 89600 VSA software. A software license is the key that unlocks the powerful measurement capability of the 89600 software on your PC. Floating (89601AN), node-locked (89601A), and limited term (89601N12) licenses are available, depending on your need.
View constellation diagrams, make I/Q quality measurements (imbalance, quadrature error, offset) and more. The Agilent 89600 VSA software offers sophisticated error analysis that lets you see both RF and DSP problems. The key is the EVM measurement. EVM compares the phase and magnitude of the input signal with an ideal reference signal stream. The average error over time is displayed as
a single percent, or the error can be viewed on a symbol-by-symbol basis. Use the FFT of the EVM error signal to identify systematic impairments you couldn’t otherwise see. Identify spurs coupling from other parts of the system by looking at the EVM spectrum for peaks.
Powerful Modulation Analysis Options
Flexible Modulation Analysis (Option AYA)
Option AYA demodulates a wide range of standard communication formats, such as EDGE and GSM. But it also offers a wide range of general purpose demodulators for FSK, BPSK, QPSK, offset QPSK, QAM, and VSB, all with user-settable symbol clock rate, bandwidth, filter type and alpha. You can even apply your own proprietary filtering by providing the filter’s impulse or frequency response.
3G Modulation Analysis (Option B7N)
Evaluate and troubleshoot your 3G modulated wireless communi­cations signals with Option B7N. Whether your signal is cdma2000 or W-CDMA, TD-SCDMA or 1xEV-DO, HSDPA or 1xEV-DV, the tools and analysis flexibility in Option B7N help you test your signal to its standard and troubleshoot the problem if the signal fails to meet its standard. You can purchase the modulation types separately as option B7T (cdma2000/1xEV-DV), option B7U (WCDMA/HSDPA), option B7X (TD-SCDMA), or option B7W (1x-EVDO).

• 802.11a/b/g standards-based testing
IEEE 802.11n MIMO Modulation Analysis (Option B7Z)
Analyzing an IEEE 802.11n MIMO signal is extraordinarily challeng­ing because it is made up of multiple OFDM signals that transmit on the same frequency at the same time. The advanced troubleshooting and evaluation tool set provided by Agilent’s IEEE 802.11n MIMO modulation analysis option is specifically designed to handle this challenge and more.
IEEE 802.16-2004 OFDM Analysis (Option B7S)
Analyzing OFDM signals requires developers to think in the time and frequency domains simultaneously. You need OFDM-specific signal analysis tools to help you manipulate and break down the signal in order to effectively troubleshoot the situation. The IEEE 802.16 OFDM analysis software helps you do this quickly and efficiently.
Option B7S provides comprehensive coverage of the IEEE 802.16­2004 standard:

11974 Series Preselected Millimeter Mixers
Eliminate the need for signal identification at millimeter frequencies. The Agilent 11974 series mixers are preselected from 26.5 to 75 GHz for faster, easier testing of millimeter devices and systems. Pre­selection reduces mixer overload from broadband signals and reduces radiation of local oscillator harmonics back to the device under test. Equipment operators can quickly locate true signals, and software development for automated measurements is greatly simplified.
These mixers feature advanced barium-ferrite technology and come with a standalone power supply. They are particularly useful for broadband millimeter signal analysis, millimeter electromagnet­ic interference (EMI) measurements, and unattended monitoring of millimeter signals.
11974 series preselected mixers are available in four bands

Noise Figure Analyzers, NFA Series
Noise Figure Analyzers
NFA Series
A Flexible and Intuitive User Interface
The user interface on the NFA series of Noise Figure Analyzers is intuitive and easy to use, with easy to find keys, which are sized and then placed in the relevant key group according to function. The soft-key depths have been kept to a minimum and there are clear visual indicators on the screen showing the current machine state.
Easy Measurement Setup
The NFA series of Noise Figure Analyzers now takes the pain out of complex measurement setups, with their simple but instructive menus. The built-in help button gives key function and remote programming commands, that should eliminate the need to carry manuals when setting up measurements.
Low Instrumentation Uncertainty
When making noise figure measurements, a key parameter to be aware of is measurement uncertainty. The NFA has a low instrumentation uncertainty to aid in accurate and repeatable measurement of manufacturers’ components. In addition, to aid customers in setting their components/systems specifications, Agilent has produced a web-based uncertainty calculator that will give customers information on how to improve and classify their measurement specifications more accurately.
For more information, visit our web site at: www.agilent.com/find/nf
Increase Measurement Throughput
In manufacturing environments, fast measurement speed and repeatability are critical. The NFA series of Noise Figure Analyzers include many features that can reduce your measurement time and increase throughput. The frequency list function allows you to select specific points within a complete measurement span to make your measurement. The Sweep averaging function allows a real-time update to the screen during a measurement, as you adjust the per­formance of the DUT during a sweep. Both these functions, as well as the limit line functionality for quick and easy pass/fail testing and the additional ability to recall complete calibrated instrument states, increase productivity and measurement throughput.
Enhanced Connectivity
The built-in floppy disk drive, GPIB, RS232 serial and Printer port connectors allow data transfer between the analyzer and a PC or workstation. There is also a built-in VGA connector for connecting a large-screen monitor.
Color Graphical Display
To enhance usability, the Noise Figure Analyzers come with an inte­grated 17 cm full color LCD display, for simultaneous viewing of noise figure and gain against frequency. There are three different formats for viewing measurements, the two separate channel or combined graph format, a table format, and a spot frequency noise figure and gain measurement “meter” format.
Ease of Automation
The NFA series of Noise Figure Analyzers include 2 industry-stan­dard GPIB ports and an RS232 serial port, to aid in the automated control of the instrument. The second GPIB port is dedicated to Local oscillator control. The default control language is SCPI, but users can also define custom LO commands.
Ease of Integration
To aid with the integration of the analyzer into manufacturing environments, Agilent has produced a Programmers Reference Manual containing example programs to help migrate to the new system. The NFA is not code compatible with the 8970B, nor can it control the 8971C.
Full Measurement Capability

SNS Series Noise Sources
The Agilent SNS series of noise sources work in conjunction with the Agilent NFA series of noise figure analyzers to simplify measurement set-up and improve accuracy. When connected to the Agilent, NFA series, the noise source automatically downloads electronically stored calibration data to the analyzers. The SNS series also connects to Agilent’s ESA spectrum analyzers, or MXA and EXA signal analyzers. The noise sources also have the capability to auto­matically measure their own temperature so that compensation can be applied to the calibration data. These capabilities increase the overall reliability and accuracy of the noise figure measurement. The SNS noise sources can be used for a various applications with a range of frequencies, Excess Noise Ratio (ENR) and coaxial connector types.

346 Series Noise Sources
The Agilent 346 series of noise sources work in conjunction with the Agilent NFA series noise figure analyzer and the PSA series spectrum analyzer to make accurate and reliable noise figure mea­surements. Each 346 noise source has individually calibrated ENR values at specific frequencies. The calibration data is printed on the label of the noise source and can be manually entered into the NFA or PSA. A f loppy disk is also provided with the calibration data, for rapid entry of ENR data into the NFA or PSA. The 346 noise sources are designed for a broad range of measurement applications, with a range of frequencies, Excess Noise Ratio (ENR) and coaxial connector types.
Customer Solution Noise Sources
