Frequency Domain Evaluation
The low cost of the PSA Series II provides every engineer with the potential to own a spectrum analyzer, whether they work in the RF field or not.
Observing signals in the frequency domain often provides information that can not be seen by looking in the time domain using an oscilloscope.
Typical uses include:
Harmonic Distortion Measurement
Filter Evaluations
Clock Signal Integrity Checks
Spurious Signal Identification
HF Stability Analysis
