Saelig Introduces RSA5000 3.2/6.5GHz Real-Time Spectrum Analyzers

 Fairport, NY: Saelig Company, Inc. announces the availability of the Rigol Technologies RSA5000 Series of RF spectrum analyzers. These real-time devices scan a complete frequency spectrum of 9kHz to 3.2 or 6.5GHz with a maximum sample rate of 51.2MS/s. They offer significant performance improvements over traditional swept spectrum analyzers with a 1ms full span sweep, an expanded vertical range to +30dBm, reduced phase noise to -108dBc/Hz, 1 Hz RBW (resolution bandwidth), and a reduced noise floor (DANL) to -165dBm. They can also be used in a traditional swept scan mode.

Rohde & Schwarz introduces the R&S RTC1000, the most compact low-cost, high-quality oscilloscope

Munich, January 16, 2018 — Rohde & Schwarz today announced the launch of the new R&S RTC1000 oscilloscope series. The compact oscilloscope can double as an eight-channel logic analyzer, a four-channel pattern generator and a protocol analyzer for I2C, SPI, UART/RS-232, CAN and LIN; and as a digital voltmeter, component tester, spectrum analyzer and counter. With this eight-in-one instrument integration, users get more value with a minimal footprint on bench space.

Joerg Fries, Vice President Market Segments for T&M at Rohde & Schwarz, says: “Our engineers set out to design a cost-sensitive oscilloscope that … Read More → "Rohde & Schwarz introduces the R&S RTC1000, the most compact low-cost, high-quality oscilloscope"
