Compact full-featured real-time 8/18/27GHz spectrum analyzers

Now available from Saelig, the compact Berkeley Nucleonics' RTSA7500 real-time spectrum analyzer is a powerful, full-featured instrument designed to analyze wireless signals in real-time (not progressively scanned). This is essential for seeing intermittent and frequency-hopped signals. The RTSA7500 has all the standard features of a sophisticated, expensive bench-top spectrum analyzer, but at far lower cost since it uses the display and processing power of an attached PC. Frequency controls, marker functions for tracking specific frequencies and multi-trace functionality are all included, as well as a real-time triggering for measuring complex data signals such as Wi-Fi and LTE. Sophisticated FPGA-based digital signal processing within the RTSA7500 enables the capture of elusive time-varying signals across an instantaneous bandwidth of up to 100MHz. The real-time analysis of the RTSA7500 combines patented, low-cost digital software-defined radio technology, open source software, standard APIs, and a PC-controlled architecture to provide unparalleled performance in an economical instrument. Also, the widescreen view of a laptop or PC monitor enables enhanced viewing not available on instruments with built-in screens.
