Agilent 35670A Specifications
Instrument specifications apply after 15 minutes warm-up and within 2 hours of the last self-calibration. When the internal cooling fan has been turned OFF, specifications apply within 5 minutes of the last self-calibration. All specifications are with 400 line frequency resolution and with anti-alias filters enabled unless stated otherwise.
