Rohde and Schwarz FSWP26 Phase Noise Analyzer and VCO Tester with 1MHz to 26.5 GHz Frequency Range and 320 MHz Analysis Bandwidth

Rohde and Schwarz FSW26P Phase noise analyzer and VCO tester 1MHz to 26.5 GHz

The R&S®FSWP phase noise analyzer and VCO tester delivers exceptional sensitivity through extremely low-noise internal sources and cross-correlation technology. It rapidly measures phase noise and amplitude noise on highly stable sources, including those used in radar applications. Additional capabilities such as pulsed signal measurements, residual phase noise characterization (including pulsed), and integrated high-end signal and spectrum analysis make the R&S®FSWP a unique test instrument.

With fully digital signal processing, the R&S FSWP performs complex measurements at the push of a button and features intuitive touchscreen operation. It efficiently measures phase noise of pulsed sources and residual phase noise under pulsed conditions, making it ideal for aerospace, defense, and automotive applications—particularly for manufacturers of radar components and synthesizers. The integrated voltage sources also make the R&S FSWP perfect for VCO measurements in research, development, and high-speed production environments.

The R&S FSWP8 and R&S FSWP26 models (covering 8 GHz and 26 GHz frequency ranges) became available in September 2015, while the R&S FSWP50 model (extending to 50 GHz) was released at the end of 2015.

• Frequency range from 1 MHz up to 50 GHz, extendable to 325 GHz with external mixers
• High-end signal and spectrum analyzer combined with phase noise tester in one instrument
• SCPI recorder to simplify code generation
• Internal source for measuring residual phase noise on pulsed signals
• Cross correlation for high sensitivity amplitude and phase noise measurement in parallel, even on pulsed signals

The R&S FSWP can be upgraded to a full signal and spectrum analyzer. Rohde & Schwarz remains the only manufacturer offering this combined measurement solution in a single device, continuing the legacy of its predecessor model, the R&S FSUP.
