Agilent 8560 EC Series Spectrum Analyzers Data Sheet Agilent 8560EC 30 Hz to 2.9 GHz Agilent 8561EC 30 Hz to 6.5 GHz 1 Agilent 8562EC 30 Hz to 13.2 GHz Agilent 8563EC 30 Hz to 26.5 GHz Agilent 8564EC 30 Hz to 40 GHz Agilent 8565EC 30 Hz to 50 GHz 1. The 8561EC has been discontinued and replaced with 8562EC. The Agilent 8560 EC Series spectrum analyzers have a color display, offer standard digitized fast time domain sweeps (Option 856xE-007 on the 8560 E Series), and are Class 3 MIL-rugged. The 8560 EC Series is identical to the 8560E Series in all other respects. Frequency Specifications, Agilent 8560 EC Series Unless noted, all specifications describe the instrument’s warranted performance under the following conditions: 5-minute warm-up from ambient conditions, autocoupled controls, digital display, IF ADJ ON, REF LVL CAL adjusted, SECOND IF OUTPUT and 1ST LO OUTPUT terminated in 50 Ω. After a 30-minute warm-up, and over a temperature range of 20 °C to 30 °C, the preselector does not have to be peaked at each signal of interest; under these conditions factory preselector peak values are sufficient to meet all specifications. Typical performance is non-warranted. Supplemental characteristics are denoted by “nominal” and “approximately”; these constitute non-warranted functional performance information derived during the design process and are not tested on a continuing basis.
