Like the DSA815, the DSA1030 and DSA1030A models are available with an additional 1.5 GHz tracking generator and an optional VSWR bridge, allowing them to be used as scalar network analyzers. They integrate a preamplifier that enables up to -148 dBm mean noise level (DANL), and with standard features such as power measurement, harmonic distortion, and TOI, the DSA1030A analyzers are ideal instruments for more powerful and versatile high-frequency measurements.
The use of digital IF, standard on all Rigol spectrum analyzers, helps minimize errors due to filter switching and reference level uncertainties. It can even limit errors produced when switching between logarithmic and linear amplitude displays, which occur when using a spectrum analyzer with a traditional analog IF section.
With the new free EMI filter option, quasi-peak detector, and integrated advanced measurement kit, the DSA1030A-TG spectrum analyzer is ideal for pre-testing compliance of boards, devices, and components. This allows customers to troubleshoot and test designs on their bench without having to schedule and pay for time in a full compliance lab. Pre-testing helps engineers meet EU-wide EMC standards from the design phase and prevents costly redesigns. This results in reduced development time and accelerates time to market.
RIGOL is launching an all-inclusive pricing offensive, offering attractive package prices for the DSA1030-xx 3GHz spectrum analyzer models until December 31, 2013. This includes a tracer generator, preamplifier, EMI package, and QuasiPeak at a user-friendly price.
