The Rohde & Schwarz FSWP26 phase noise analyzer and VCO tester is the optimal test solution for radar applications and when developing and manufacturing synthesizers, OCXOs, DROs and VCOs. It can be easily configured to meet the required application. The instrument’s low-noise internal local oscillator makes it possible to measure most commercially available synthesizers and oscillators without any additional options.

For high-end applications, the Rohde & Schwarz FSWP26 can be equipped with a second receive path, which enables cross-correlation and, depending on the number of correlations used, increases sensitivity – by up to 25 dB. The analyzer’s excellent internal sources and largely digital architecture make it faster than test systems that digitize the signal after the phase detector. The FSWP26 not only measures phase noise, it is also a full-featured signal and spectrum analyzer. The Rohde & Schwarz FSWP26 Phase noise analyzer is an all-in-one solution, so users can easily switch between various measurement channels. One glance at the spectrum and then on with the phase noise measurements – no problem.

Key Features of:

●Frequency range from 1 MHz to 26.5 GHz

●Simultaneous measurement of amplitude noise and phase noise

●Internal source for measuring residual phase noise, including on pulsed signals

●Automatic VCO characterization

●Up to 300 MHz frequency offset for phase noise measurements, up to 1 GHz for pure noise measurement
