DNA: Digital Phase Noise and Frequency Analyzer

Product Details

The DNA is the highest performance Frequency Stability and Phase Noise Analyzer with a unique digital architecture that allows measurements down to thermal noise and state-of-the-art close-in phase noise performance.

The Instrument Reaches -180 dBc/Hz in 30 Seconds!

This economical instrument is ideal for fast, accurate measurement of crystal oscillators from 2 – 400 MHz.

The key advantages of this platform are not only the extremely low noise floor but the fact that it does not require any phase locking of a reference, as all phase detector-based phase noise analyzers do. Its amazing phase noise extraction process even works on different frequencies; the reference can be at a different frequency than the DUT.

No isolation problem, no phase lock loop bandwidth, no DC FM tuning port required; this is so many benefits to avoid errors and get simple, fast and reliable performance. And as phase noise is just one of the two ways of analyzing signal purity and stability, the DNA also integrates an excellent frequency stability analyzer making is the new Time and Frequency analyzer standard for the advanced research and development industry.

The DNA also includes built-in oscillators for advanced autonomous operation. External oscillators may also be used.
