N/A

NF7-class Noise Figure Analyzer, multi-touch

Provides broadband noise figure measurements from 2 to 100 GHz with modular signal analyzer, and benchtop X-Series signal analyzers

Make noise figure measurements with precision and speed

Keysight NF7-class noise figure analyzers include the N8679B-N8973B noise figure analyzers. They are designed to make fast, accurate, and repeatable noise figure measurements. When combined with our signal noise source (SNS) and the included USB preamplifier, the noise figure analyzer automatically downloads excess noise ratio (ENR) data, streamlining the measurement process. Our noise figure analyzers are easy to use with a multi-touch interface that enables stretch, pinch, and drag gestures. Choose one of our popular configurations or configure one specific to your application. Need help selecting?

Low instrument uncertainty

Designed to minimize internal circuitry errors, the low instrument uncertainty of ±0.02 dB ensures accurate, repeatable noise figure measurements.

Automated calibration

Streamlines Y-factor measurements by enabling automated calibration of up to 12 device-under-test (DUT) setups in a single step, significantly reducing test time.

Multimode signal analysis

Provides additional modes such as spectrum analyzer and IQ analyzer, enabling diverse signal analysis tasks within a single instrument.

Built-in uncertainty calculator

Computes noise figure uncertainty by auto-populating data from the SNS, USB preamplifier, and key instrument parameters like analyzer noise figure and match.

Maximum frequency 3.6 GHz to 40 GHz
Gain uncertainty Instrument uncertainty
±0.02 dB using a 4-6 dB ENR Noise Source

Provides broadband noise figure measurements from 2 to 100 GHz with modular signal analyzer, and benchtop X-Series signal analyzers

Highlights

The Keysight U1833M is a versatile USB-powered smart noise source. The USB connection (USB TMC-compliant) significantly reduces setup time and provides compatibility with noise figure analyzers and signal analyzers. The broadband noise source accurately measures noise figures from 2 to 100 GHz

  • Automatic upload of excess noise ratio (ENR) data to the analyzers via USB connection (USB TMC-compliant) significantly speeds up overall setup time.
  • Electronic storage of ENR calibration data decreases the opportunity for user error.
  • Temperature sensing improves measurement accuracy, leading to tighter specification of device performance.
