The HP 8591A are portable spectrum analyzers offer frequency accuracy and a wide range of options for applications that demand higher performance. The 8591A has a frequency range of 9 kHz to 1.8 GHz and amplitude range of -115 to +30dBm.
The HP 8591A Spectrum Analyzer may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
Functions
The 8591A is a swept-tuned spectrum analyzer operating from 9 kHz to 1.8 GHz, designed for signal analysis. It measures signal amplitude versus frequency, with a -115 dBm sensitivity. Option 004 provides enhanced frequency accuracy through a precision frequency reference.
Platforms
Portable spectrum analyzer with frequency coverage from 9 kHz to 1.8 GHz and amplitude range of -115 to +30 dBm, featuring 1 kHz to 3 MHz resolution bandwidth and a displayed average noise level near -115 dBm; designed for mid-range RF and microwave signal analysis with built-in memory card reader for loading custom measurement profiles; includes standard frequency accuracy of 7.5 ppm, improved to ± 230 Hz at 1 GHz via optional precision frequency reference (Option 004); input protection up to +30 dBm, supports 50 O standard impedance, and offers low harmonic and intermodulation distortion; interfaces via front RF input and control panel, suitable for portable field or lab spectral measurements and performance diagnostics.
Applications
Radio frequency spectrum analyzer operating from 9 kHz to 1.8 GHz with swept-tuned superheterodyne architecture. Features digital signal processing, CRT display, and GPIB interface for automated test environments. Precision frequency reference option provides enhanced frequency accuracy and stability for critical measurements. Input impedance 50 ohms with maximum safe input level +30 dBm. Resolution bandwidths from 1 kHz to 3 MHz, amplitude measurement range -115 dBm to +30 dBm. Applications include EMI/EMC testing, signal analysis, spurious emission measurements, and RF component characterization in laboratory and production environments.
