To help you get proven results even faster, Keysight’s PXI
VSA can be used with X-Series measurement applications for
modular instruments, 89600 VSA software and SystemVue.
These software applications enable you to investigate,
validate and test your RF communications designs.
From fully modular hardware to software leverage to
worldwide support, the PXI VSA is the low-risk way to
manage change and be ready for tomorrow—today.
Product description
The M9391A PXI VSA is a modular vector signal analyzer for
frequencies from 1 MHz to 6 GHz and up to 160 MHz analysis
bandwidth. The M9391A is comprised of four individual
PXI modules - M9350A downconverter, M9214A digitizer,
M9301A synthesizer and M9300A frequency reference. A
single M9300A frequency reference can be shared between
multiple instruments to minimize footprint.
The flexible, modular design of the M9391A enables you
to efficiently scale to multi-channel signal analysis to test
multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) devices. Capability
can also be scaled with options for memory, frequency range
and modulation bandwidth which can be easily upgraded in
the field.
Applications
– Power amplifier and front-end-module design validation
and manufacturing
– Radio transceiver design validation and production test
– MIMO and multi-channel device test
