Define issues and solve problems faster by characterizing your device, system or signal more completely and rapidly than previously possible with swept spectrum analyzers. Tektronix RSA3300A Series Real-Time Spectrum Analyzers capture many signals not viewable on swept spectrum analyzers by seamlessly capturing and storing a span of RF frequencies all at one time*1. Once a signal is captured it can be viewed simultaneously and analyzed in time-correlated frequency, time and modulation domains. RSA Series instruments include not only Real-Time Spectrum Analyzer fast-signal capture, internal memory and modulation analysis but also functionality and operation of a swept spectrum analyzer for looking at very wide spans, all in an integrated, transportable package.

Features:

• Real-Time Spectrum Analysis Provides Seamless Capture of Time-varying, Transient or Periodic RF Signals not Possible with Swept Spectrum Analyzers
• Up to 65.536 Ms (256MB) of Internal Memory Provides for Complete Analysis of Signals Over Time Without Making Multiple Measurements
• Time-correlated, Simultaneous Views of Time, Frequency, and Modulation Domains Provide Greater and Unique Understanding of Signal Behavior
• Spectrogram Provides a Revealing Picture of RF Signal Frequency and Amplitude Behavior Over Time – Not Possible with a Swept Spectrum Analyzer
• Frequency Mask Trigger – Available only from Tektronix – Makes it Easy to Capture Fast, Transient, or Intermittent Signals that Swept Spectrum Analyzers Would Miss
• Spectrum Analyzer Mode for Very Wide Span Analyses
• Built-in Demodulators Enhance Analysis of AM, ASK, FM, FSK, and PM Signals
• Digital Demodulator Offers Affordable Vector Signal Analysis
• Outstanding DC – 20 MHz Dynamic Range and Low Phase Noise Mean You Can Make High-Performance Weak Signal and Phase Noise Measurements
