Product Overview

The HA7402C tunable phase noise analyzer responds to industry demands for a no frills phase noise measurement system that is highly reliable and intuitive while offering measurement speeds that eliminate bottlenecks on manufacturing test lines. The HA7402C is also an incredibly cost effective solution for R&D, offering measurement floors below -190dBc/Hz. The core engine combines the best of traditional analog phase noise measurement front-ends (being virtually spur free) with the latest technology in cross correlation analysis. The digital analysis system leverages a proprietary DSP with a powerful cross correlation engine. External LOs are used with this unique architecture to achieve the lowest phase noise floors as well as blazing fast measurement speeds. Two separate LOs are necessary, as the engine requires non-coherent signals in order to cross correlate. The integrated frequency counters and power meters make the use of external LOs straight forward with a fully automated calibration routine. Phase noise measurements do not benefit from modular analyzer architectures. Holzworth’s fully shielded, fan-less 1U chassis completely eliminates ground loops and troublesome microphonics for uncompromising performance when compared to traditional “rack and stack” style systems
