Overview

YSA-P090 covers 9 kHz to 9 GHz with a superheterodyne receiver, preselector filters and a full-band preamplifier. Analysis bandwidth is 50 MHz standard or 100 MHz with Option 50.

SAStudio4 supports spectrum, IQ, power detection, phase-noise and mapping measurements. The 1.5 kg handheld enclosure includes a 10.1-inch multi-touch display, with USB, Ethernet and SCPI for remote operation.

Additional product details

The YSA-P090 extends the handheld platform’s frequency range to 9 GHz.

The YSA-P090 supports GNSS frequency calibration, SCPI remote control and battery operation up to 2.5 hours, and a 9 GHz tracking generator is available as Option 62.

Key Capabilities & Applications

Extend measurements to 9 GHz

The frequency range covers 9 kHz to 9 GHz. Select Option 62 when a built-in 9 GHz tracking generator is required.

Separate measurement modes

Real-time analysis and IQ streaming accompany spectrum sweep. Phase-noise specifications distinguish spectrum sweep from dedicated phase-noise measurement mode.

Add the required analysis options

Option 50 provides 100 MHz analysis bandwidth. Options 71, 72 and 74 add basic vector modulation, pulse analysis and EMI pre-compliance measurement respectively.

Common applications

  • Interference hunting
  • EMC pre-compliance testing
  • Radar and wireless signal analysis
  • Laboratory RF measurements

Performance notes

The YSA-P090 SSB phase-noise figures depend on the measurement mode: SSB phase noise in spectrum sweep mode < -110 dBc/Hz at 1 GHz carrier, 10 kHz offset, and SSB phase noise in phase noise measurement mode < -124 dBc/Hz (typ.) at 1 GHz carrier, 10 kHz offset.

The YSA-P090 SSB phase-noise tables in phase noise measurement mode list two values per offset for each carrier: at 1 GHz (guaranteed / typical); at 4.5 GHz (guaranteed / typical); at 6 GHz (guaranteed / typical); at 9 GHz (guaranteed / typical).

The YSA-P090 sweep-speed figures are stated with Spur Rejection = Bypass.
