Product Overview

TEKTRONIX RSA3408B

The Tektronix RSA3408B Real-Time Spectrum Analyzer is part of the mid-range of performance Spectrum Analyzer Series. It delivers the measurement confidence you hope for in your radio design or spectrum management functions. With the RSA3408B, you can perform vector, spectrum, power, signal source and audio analysis, all from within a single spectrum analyzer instrument. 

The Tek RSA3408B makes it easy for you to discover design issues that other signal analyzers miss. The revolutionary DPX Live RF spectrum display offers an intuitive live color view of signal transients changing over time in the frequency domain, giving you immediate confidence in the stability of your design or instantly displaying a fault when it occurs. This live display of transients is impossible with other signal analyzers. Once a problem is discovered with DPX, the Real Time Spectrum Analyzer (RTSA) can be set to trigger on the event in the frequency domain, capture a continuous time record of changing RF events and perform time-correlated analysis in all domains. You get the functionality of a high-performance vector signal analyzer, a spectrum analyzer, and the unique discover, trigger, capture, analyze capability of a Real Time Spectrum Analyzer
