Product Description
The N8973A is a high-performance noise figure analyzer launched by National Instruments. It covers a frequency range of 10 MHz to 3.0 GHz and is specifically designed for fast, precise, and repeatable noise figure measurements. It features intuitive operation functions and flexible measurement configurations, enabling simultaneous noise figure and gain measurements. It supports the observation, printing, and saving of various data formats, providing a reliable solution for RF device testing. Characteristics
The frequency range covers 10 MHz to 3.0 GHz, meeting the testing requirements of mainstream RF applications.
It offers 6 user-selectable measurement bandwidths (100 kHz, 200 kHz, 400 kHz, 1 MHz, 2 MHz, 4 MHz), suitable for different testing scenarios.
It supports compatibility with the SNS series noise sources and can directly evaluate RF components such as amplifiers and frequency conversion devices.
It has LO control function and is compatible with 2 GPIB interfaces, enhancing the flexibility of connection.
The frequency tuning accuracy is high, with an error of only reference error + 20 kHz within the range of 10 MHz to 3.0 GHz (narrow bandwidth mode), and the data repetition is strong.
It is equipped with a standard frequency reference, with an annual aging rate of less than 2 ppm and temperature stability of ±6 ppm, ensuring long-term measurement accuracy.
