The Model 2820 RF Vector Signal Analyzer is a mid-performance test instrument designed for R&D

and production testing of modern RF communications equipment and devices. This next-generation

instrument combines state-of-the-art RF and digital signal processing (DSP) technology to measure

RF test signals rapidly with high accuracy and excellent repeatability. Its compact half-rack enclosure

and competitive pricing make it a cost-effective solution for many test applications. The Model 2820’s

DSP-based software-defined radio (SDR) architecture and 40MHz bandwidth ensure it has the capability

to measure today’s signals and also the flexibility to handle tomorrow’s. Today’s mobile phones are

designed to connect to more types of devices than ever before, so they must integrate with a growing

number of wireless standards. As new wireless standards emerge, the Model 2820 is engineered for

easy upgrades, which extend its useful life and

provide an ongoing return on investment far

longer than traditional instruments.
The Model 2820’s Windows CE

operating system

and intuitive graphical user interface allow users

their choice of operating it via the touch-screen

user interface, the front panel controls, or with a

mouse. GPIB, USB, and 100Base-T Ethernet LAN

ports offer a variety of options for connecting to a

PC; it is LXI Class C compliant, so it’s equally easy

to connect to an internal network or the Internet.

Tests can be created by developing scripts using

SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable

Instrumentation) commands, with IVI-COM

or IVI-C drivers, or by assembling LabVIEW

building blocks.
