UTS3000A-PNM Phase Noise Measurement option for UTS3000A series
Overview
The UTS3000A-PNM adds dedicated phase noise measurement for oscillators, synthesizers, and clock sources — phase noise vs. offset frequency with high sensitivity.
Key Features
- Phase Noise vs. Offset — Single-sideband phase noise from Hz to MHz offsets in one sweep.
- Auto Carrier Detection — Automatically identifies the carrier frequency.
- Integrated Phase Noise — Calculates jitter over a specified offset range.
- Spur Identification — Identifies discrete spurious signals in the phase noise spectrum.
- Software License Activation — License key via instrument menu. No hardware changes.
