53100A Phase Noise Analyzer

Learn About the 53100A

The 53100A measures the amplitude, phase and frequency stability of high-performance RF sources. It tells you everything you need to know about the stability characteristics of your devices at timescales ranging from femtoseconds to days. The 53100A can be used on a bench-top or embedded into rackmount Automated Test Equipment (ATE) systems. Its small form factor and industry-leading measurement speed makes this test set versatile for multiple applications.

Expanding upon the heritage of the 3120A and 51XXA series of instruments, the 53100A makes fast yet accurate Single Side Band (SSB) phase noise and Allan Deviation (ADEV) measurements at a fraction of the cost of other solutions. Featuring an improved design and advancements in manufacturing, the 53100A offers improvements in reliability and performance over predecessor technologies.
