Rigol extends their RF Portfolio with the addition of Vector Network Analysis capability on the Real-Time Spectrum Analyser platform!

Posted on: August 11th, 2020 by James


Telonic Instruments announces the new Rigol RSA3000N and RSA5000N Spectrum Analyser which extends the flexibility and capability of the UltraReal platform with a new Vector Network Analyser measurement mode.

The RSA5000N and the RSA3000N deliver the same performance specifications and feature set as the current RSA models buts adds the VNA capability as a standard feature. With integrated Smith Charts, Polar Charts, Reflection Coefficient, Impedance, Insertion Loss, Frequency Response, and a host of other measurements the RIGOL UltraReal (Realtime) Spectrum Analyser becomes a fully functional Vector Network Analyser.

Supporting S11, S21 and Distance to Fault Analysis the Rigol RSA5000N and RSA3000N will become an invaluable resource to engineers needing to tune antenna sets, search for communication and cable faults, or fully characterise active or passive RF components.

Starting at just under £2000 for a 1.5GHz model the RSA3000N is a tool now accessible to small companies, educators, and enthusiasts who have long hoped for an affordable and powerful VNA solution. With a frequency range up to 6.5GHz the RSA5000N delivers the performance and range required for most of today’s mainstream IoT designs.

There are 5 models of Vector Network Analyser.

The RSA3000N supports frequency ranges of 1.5GHz, 3.0GHz and 4.5GHz with a starting price of under £2k.
