Technical Specifications and Characteristics
Definitions for specifications
Conversion type operating range
Temperatures referred to in this document are defined as follows:
– Full temperature range = Individual module temperature of 25
to 75 °C, as reported by the module, and environment
temperature of 0 to 55 °C.
– Controlled temperature range = Individual module tempera-
ture of 40 to 51 °C, as reported by the module, and environ-
ment temperature of 20 to 30 °C.

Additional information
Specifications describe the warranted performance of calibrated
instruments. Data represented in this document are specifications
under the following conditions unless otherwise noted.
– Calibrated instruments have been stored for a minimum of 2
hours within the full temperature range
– 45 minute warm-up time
– Calibration cycle maintained
– When used with Keysight M9300A frequency reference and
Keysight interconnect cables
– Mixer level offset modifies the receiver gain prior to the first
mixer of the receiver. A negative setting improves distortion
(i.e., TOI) at the cost of noise performance (i.e., DANL). A
positive setting improves noise performance at the cost of
distortion.
– Performance described in this document applies for module
temperature within ± 3 degrees of comprehensive alignment,
unless otherwise noted.
– When used with a Keysight M9018A PXIe chassis, compre-
hensive alignment requires chassis FPGA version 1.05 or
greater.
Characteristics describe product performance that is useful in
the application of the product, but that is not covered by the
product warranty. Characteristics are often referred to as
Typical or Nominal values and are italicized.
– Typical describes characteristic performance, which 80% of
instruments will meet when operated
within the controlled temperature range.
– Nominal describes representative performance that is useful
in the application of the product when
– When configured for multi-channel, phase-coherent
operation (shared synthesizer configuration), instrument level
warranted specifications only apply to the M9391A which
was previously calibrated with the M9301A synthesizer,
showing a valid calibration indicator. For all other M9391A
channels, specifications revert to typical performance. If
using an external LO distribution unit, such as the V2802A LO
distribution network, specifications for all M9391A channels
revert to typical performance.
– All graphs contain measured data from one unit and is
representative of product performance within the controlled
temperature range unless otherwise noted.
– The specifications contained in this document are subject to
change.
operated within the controlled temperature range.
Recommended best practices in use
– Use slot blockers and EMC filler panels in empty module slots
to ensure proper operating temperatures. Keysight chassis
and slot blockers optimize module temperature performance
and reliability of test.
– Set chassis fan to high at environmental temperatures above
45 °C
– Maintain temperature stability for best multi-channel phase
coherence
– Set chassis fans to maximum
– Maintain stable ambient temperature
– Perform warm-up with session open and representative
acquisition waveform running
