RENT KEYSIGHT / AGILENT N8976B Noise Figure Analyzer (Call for Availability)
The Keysight N8976B is a high-performance noise figure analyzer engineered to deliver exceptionally accurate and repeatable noise figure measurements with speed and efficiency. Its advanced multi-touch interface supports intuitive gestures such as stretch, pinch, and drag, allowing users to navigate menus seamlessly and access most functions with a simple tap—without needing to change screens.
This sophisticated instrument streamlines noise source calibrations for Y-Factor measurements, enabling combined calibrations for up to 12 Device Under Test (DUT) setups in a single step. The internal calibration feature significantly reduces test time across various DUTs, eliminating the need for time-consuming user calibration.
Equipped with built-in expertise and user-friendly functionalities, the N8976B simplifies the setup of complex measurements, ensuring that you achieve reliable and repeatable results. The analyzer minimizes overall uncertainty for your noise figure measurement challenges, thanks to its best-in-class USB preamplifier and a built-in noise figure uncertainty calculator. This calculator leverages data from the SNS noise source, USB preamplifier, and necessary instrument parameters including analyzer noise figure, gain, and noise figure uncertainty.
Default settings provide simultaneous measurement of noise figure and gain, while the Table view feature presents multiple measurements—such as Noise Figure, Noise Factor, Y-Factor, Gain, Phot, Pcold, and Teffective—in an easy-to-read tabular format for comprehensive analysis.
