Description
Aaronia’s latest generation of high performance real-time spectrum analyzers: the SPECTRAN® V6 PLUS 500XA-6 is equipped with a real-time bandwidth of 80MHz (optionally 120MHz) and a vector signal generator. The top-of-the-line V6 2000X model of this analyzer family comes with 160MHz RTBW from the factory, which can be optionally expanded to 245MHz. This is unprecedented in the USB spectrum analyzer class!
The compact design of the aluminum housing of just 210 x 115 x 30 mm (850g) requires little space in the laboratory and is also ideal for mobile applications (laptop) due to its low power requirements.
In real-time mode, the IQ-based POI is only 30ns, which can optionally be reduced to a remarkable 20ns.
A complete scan from 10MHz to 6GHz (optionally 8GHz) can be performed by the RSA500X in about 20ms, which corresponds to a sweep speed of 300 GHz/s (440 GHz/s with upgrade). The measurement data is transferred via USB3.x interface as raw I/Q data or FFT data. The second USB connection (“BOOST”) allows the simultaneous use of the vector signal generator.
The included modular software “RTSA-Suite PRO” already includes in the basic version over 20 units of measurement and 5 detectors, including AVG and QPEAK. In addition, it has a wide range of unique display options, which can be extended at any time via corresponding license keys. Simple signals can also be generated using free included software blocks. Optional extensions allow modulation of complex signals, for example QAM4096, or signal generation without additional USB connection.
In addition, various mounting or installation solutions can be implemented according to customer requirements.
