Used AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8568B #9198851 for sale

HP (AGILENT) AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8568B spectrum analyzer is an electronic test instrument that allows users to measure the amplitude spectrum of electrical signals. This versatile piece of test equipment has a frequency range of 10 Hz to 2 GHz, a dynamic range of -16.5 dBm to +29 dBm, and a resolution bandwidth of 5 Hz to 1 MHz. HP 8568B features both manual and automatic sweeps, an audio trigger, a scanning memory, and a peak detector. It also includes a built-in preamplifier and noise sources for testing signal-to-noise ratio, as well as a power splitter for measurements between multiple frequencies. The instrument also has a variety of display options, including an overlaid view of both the magnitude and phase responses, a marker readout, and a YT or XY plot. With these features, users can identify the center frequency and bandwidth of the signal and identify signal harmonics and other spurious signals present in the spectrum. The sweeping functions provide a number of benefits, including a variable time span to accommodate long periods of signal analysis. With the manual sweep feature, users can quickly scroll through the frequencies, as needed, while the automatic sweep allows them to preset the frequency range and continuously gauge the signal. Along with manual and automatic sweeps, AGILENT 8568B has a built-in frequency counter and a low-frequency mode to allow measurements down to 10 Hz. KEYSIGHT 8568B also includes various triggering capabilities. The internal audio-burst trigger functions by detecting sound signals over a wide frequency range and can be triggered at points of highest energy. The digital-burst trigger captures short duration bursts of rectangular waveforms and is able to trigger on pulse widths as short as 3µs. Additionally, HEWLETT-PACKARD 8568B includes an external trigger connector that allows external signals to trigger the device. The instrument includes a number of encoded functions to allow for simple operation and remote control. Channel setup and marker positions can be saved to memory, and the data can be transferred to a peripheral device for further analysis or archival. And to ensure accuracy, 8568B includes a rear panel calibration port for convenience and testing. In sum, AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8568B is an innovative, versatile spectrum analyzer that is ideal for research and development, service applications, and production and manufacturing testing. With its multiple-function display, sweeping capabilities, and versatile triggering functions, it allows users to precisely monitor the frequency response and other characteristics of signals quickly and reliably.
