The 8594L is a 2.9 GHz Spectrum Analyzer from Agilent. A spectrum analyzer measures the power of spectrums of known and unknown signals. Spectrum analyzers collect information such as the magnitude of an input signal compared to its frequency. As a frequency analyzer, spectrum analyzers’ main use is to document and analyze electrical input signals as well as spectral compositions of other signals.
Additional Features:
Frequency range: 9 kHz to 2.9 GHz
Frequency counter: Eliminate the need for a separate frequency counter with the built-in frequency counter with ±2.1 kHz accuracy at 1 GHz (±7.6 kHz from 0 °C to 50 °C).
Multiple resolution bandwidth filters: Optimize the tradeoffs of speed, sensitivity and the separation of closely spaced signals with your choice of 10 resolution bandwidth filters beginning at 1 kHz.
142 dB amplitude measurement range: Measures signals directly with -112 dBm to +30 dBm amplitude measurement range.
One-button measurement routines: Save time, setup, and training with one button measurement routines such as Adjacent Channel Power, signal bandwidth and Third Order Intercept (TOI).
Phase noise of 105 dBc/Hz at 30 kHz offset: Uncover small signals close to carriers with an internal phase noise that will not get in your way.
Dual interfaces: Operate remotely and print directly with the optional dual interfaces that combine either an GPIB or RS-232 port with a parallel (Centronics) port.
The Agilent 8594L is a low-cost, but full-featured, frequency accurate RF spectrum analyzer designed to meet your general purpose measurement needs. The easy-to-use interface provides access to more than 200 built-in functions.
The Agilent 8594L has an optional built-in tracking generator that measures the scalar characteristics of your components with the optional built-in tracking generator and the Agilent 85714A scalar measurements personality.
Data storage can be to internal memory, where over 50 traces and states may be saved, or to memory cards through the optional memory-card reader. Data can be directly output to a printer or plotter through the optional GPIB, RS-232, or parallel printer interfaces.
Built-in Measurement Capability
Third-order intercept, percent AM, and “N” dB bandwidth are just a few of the built-in measurements. These measurements are performed at the press of a single softkey. Results are displayed onscreen. And the downloadable program (DLP) capability lets you write your own built-in measurements using the DLP editor and an external keyboard.
Measurement Personalities
Measurement personalities are application-specific DLPs that are loaded into the analyzer through the optional card reader. They provide measurement routines and a user-interface specific to the application. A scalar measurements personality customizes the 8590L with optional built in 1.8 GHz tracking generator, and a cable TV measurements personality equips the 8590L-Series with one-button RF measurements for CATV service and system monitoring.
MIL-T-28800 Conformance
The 8590 series spectrum analyzers conform to the environ-mental specifications of MIL-T-28800 class 5 to insure reliable and accurate performance in portable environments as well as indoors. Compliance with the MIL-T-28800 standards of vibration, temperature, humidity, and shock provide assurance that the 8590 series will withstand the rigors of field use.
