Rohde Schwarz FSV3 Signal and Spectrum Analyzer with FSV-B29 (10 Hz Extension)
The Rohde Schwarz FSV3 is the 3.6 GHz model in Rohde & Schwarz original FSV family of signal and spectrum analyzers. It is a fast versatile instrument for performance oriented cost conscious users in the development production installation and servicing of RF systems. The R&S FSV-B29 option, supplied as a software license extends the lower frequency limit of the analyzer down to 10 Hz when DC coupled which opens up low frequency work that the standard 9 kHz limit would rule out.
Key Features Rohde Schwarz FSV3
- Frequency range: 9 kHz to 3.6 GHz as standard and with the FSV-B29 option 10 Hz to 3.6 GHz when DC coupled
- Fine frequency resolution: 0.01 Hz
- Low-frequency coverage: useful for audio range, power line, vibration sensor, and baseband measurements with the B29 option
- Wide signal analysis bandwidth: 28 MHz nominal as standard up to 7 GHz with up to 40 MHz available with the FSV-B70 option on some variants
- Good spectral purity: typical SSB phase noise at 500 MHz of better than -84 dBc (1 Hz) at 100 Hz offset, -101 dBc at 1 kHz, -106 dBc at 10 kHz, and -115 dBc at 100 kHz
- Level range: displayed noise floor up to +30 dBm with a maximum input level of +20 dBm (0.1 W) and 0 V DC when DC coupled (50 V DC when AC coupled)
- Fast and flexible: a versatile instrument covering spectrum analysis, signal analysis, and a wide range of measurement applications
- Easy on-site upgrading: many options can be fitted later including the RF preamplifier (FSV-B22, 20 dB, 9 kHz to 7 GHz) electronic attenuator (FSV-B25) OCXO reference oscillators (FSV-B4) additional interfaces (FSV-B5) external generator control (FSV-B10) AM/FM demodulator (FSV-B3) and a ruggedized housing (FSV-B1)
- Software applications: analog modulation analysis (K7) vector signal analysis for digital single carrier modulation (K70) WiMAX analysis (K93) and others
- Remote-control compatibility: with the FSP and FSU families and functional compatibility with existing Rohde & Schwarz signal and spectrum analyzers
Typical Applications
- RF and wireless R&D production test, and servicing
- Low frequency and baseband spectrum analysis using the B29 extension
- Modulation analysis and digital signal analysis (with application options)
- Interference and harmonic measurements
- Installation and maintenance of RF systems
Why Choose It
The Rohde Schwarz FSV3 with B29 combines the speed and versatility of the FSV family with coverage down to 10 Hz so one analyzer handles both RF and low frequency measurements. The wide choice of options also lets you tailor it to the job.
