HP 8562A and 85628 Portable Microwave Spectrum Analyzers
H P has expanded ~ t line of portable spectrum analyzers with two MIL-rugged units that each
s
cover the I kHz to 22 GHz range plus millimeter frequencies. The HP 8562A has tracking
preselection up to 22 GHz, while the unpreselected H P 8562B is intended for applications in
which most measurements are made below 2.9 GHz.
These analyzers are designed for harsh field conditions. They feature a 5-minute warm-up time
in ambient temperatures from -10 to +55OC and meet MIL-T-28800C requirements for vibra-
tion, pulse shock, and transit drop. Synthesized tuning provides fast, accurate tuning, while a

HP 5371A Frequency and Time Interval Analyzer
The HP 5371A Frequency and Time Interval Analyzer uses HP's new continu-
ous measurement technology for characterizing frequency, phase, time interval
and jitter. Unlike traditional counters that are limited by very slow measure-
ment rates, the H P 5371A can measure dynamic and transient signal condi-
tions. The H P 5371A offers new measurement solutions for applications in
digital communications, radar/EW, electro-mechanical processes, data stor-
age, modulation analysis and basic research.
With continuous measurement technology, there is no measurement dead
time for sampling intervals as short as 100 ns, so you can now directly measure
time-interval frequency or phase phenomena on signals up to 500 MHz with-
out missing information. Built-in graphic display and data-reduction features
give you processed results such as histograms, statistics and time-profiles
quickly and easily. This reduces the need for external processors and test-code
development. See page 184.




HP 53188,53348 Universal Counters
Modernized components and simplified designs make it possible to offer B
models of the H P 5334A and 5316A Universal Counters at prices that are
reduced significantly from the A models. Frequency and time measurement
capabilities have not been sacrificed to achieve these lower prices. Ideal for the
budget-conscious ATE engineer, the H P 53168 has a full set of universal
counter capabilities and HP-IB is standard.
For the next step up in performance, the H P 5334B provides the high resolu-
tion frequency and time measurements necessary for designing, building, and
maintaining today's sophisticated communications and navigation systems.
The H P 5334B's breadth of measurements and excellent reliability make it an
invaluable general-purpose tool for the ATE systems designer. See pages 196
( H P 5316B) and 190 ( H P 5334B).




HP R/Q 3478 Waveguide Noise Sources
Two new waveguide noise sources extend the measuring range for component
and system noise figure measurements from 26.5 to 50 GHz. They are fully
compatible with the recently-introduced H P 8970B Noise Figure Meter (10 to
1500 MHz) and the H P 8970S/T Microwave Noise Figure Measurement Sys-
.. tern (10 MHz to 18 GHz). Particular design attention was focused on minimiz-
. .m
ing ENR variations with time and temperature by providing better heat
sinking of the avalanche diode source.
As operational microwave systems move into the millimeter-wave frequency
ranges, engineering and design of the front-end semiconductor devices such as
mixers and GasFET amplifiers require characterization of noise figure and
gain. These new noise sources provide the precision input signal for such com-
ponent and system testing. See page 21 1.
