With its constantly improving Spike software and incredible 1THz/s sweep rate, the SM435C has the potential to be a dream software-defined radio as well as a powerful laboratory & field instrument. In this episode Shahriar reviews the successor to the popular Signal-Hound SM200C, the SM435C Real-Time Spectrum Analyzer covering 100kHz – 43.5GHz with 160MHz of gapless I/Q steaming using a 10GbE optical interface.
TSP #224 - Signal Hound SM435C 43.5GHz Real-Time Spectrum Analyzer Review, Teardown & Experiments The overall performance is verified by measuring the phase noise of a Signal House PNCS-1 using cross correlation techniques. After the repair, the instrument reports the correct power. Press & Hold the LAP/RESET ON/OFF SETTINGS OF another, repeat pressing the MODE FOR AFTERNOON OR button until the hour digits ALARMS button for each mode to be EVENING. The problem is traced down to a broken connector on a custom resistive power divider. Summary of Contents for Active forever VibraLITE 3 V元00 To go from one operating mode to SETTING CORRECT TIME 2. From there, a few measurements are devised to verify the operation of the detectors, power splitter, etc. The system block diagram is shown and principle operation of the instrument is described. Initial assessments shows that the reported measured power varies wildly across the band. Although the analyzer can measure phase noise, it reports the incorrect input signal power across frequency. Despite their age, these signal-source analyzers are highly sought after and very valuable. In this episode Shahriar takes a look at a faulty E5052A signal source analyzer.
