The EIP 101A is a receiver-type Spectrum Analyzer plug-in, designed to work in all Tektronix oscilloscope mainframes which accept letter-type plug-ins. Used in the 201A power supply unit, it works together with all analog oscilloscopes. It covers the frequency range of 0.7 - 15 GHz in one single band and comprises a three-resonator YIG preselector.
Key Specifications
| Frequency Range | 1 − 12.4 GHz (useable 0.7 − 15.7 GHz)* |
|---|---|
| Dial Frequency Accuracy | 10 MHz ±3%** |
| Video Bandwidth | 1 kHz, 100 kHz, 3 MHz |
| Frequency Response | ±2 dB typical, ±4 dB maximum |
| Calibrated Dispersion | 0 − 11.4 GHz (useable 0 - 15.0 GHz) |
| Dispersion Resettability | 10 MHz |
| Dispersion Dial Accuracy | 10 MHz or ±0.5% whichever is greater |
| Preselection | 3 Resonator YIG filter, nominal 3 dB bandwidth 15 MHz, straight thru leakage >60 dB down, tracking spurious typically >45 dB down*** |
| Resolution | 15 MHz typ. |
| Image Rejection | Generates no image signals |
| Intermod Rejection | Intermod signals are reduced by the preselector selectivity over conventional microwave diode response |
| Sensitivity | −45 dBm min. (1 kHz bandwidth) |
| Max. Input Power | +20 dBm |
| Limiting Level | 0.7 − 1.0 GHz -20 dBm typ., 1.0 − 1.2 GHz >+5 dBm, 1.2 − 15.7 GHz >+10 dBm (all at 2 dB compression) |
| Log Accuracy | ±1 dB typ. (<1 mW input) |
| Variable Vertical Log Scale (dB/cm) | Variable and calibratable with internal calibrate signal over the range of 2 dB/cm to 20 dB/cm |
| Log Video output | 0.02 Volts/dB typ. |
| Sweep Rate | 1, 10, 30 Hz |
- * Usable frequency coverage is limited by the center frequency dial indicator with the unit set on a center frequency of 12 GHz and dispersion set for 15 GHz, most units will display signals as high as 18 GHz.
- ** If setting is always approached from 700 MHz, if not, add 5 - 15 MHz for hysteresis.
- ***Tracking spurious is a second pass band response, always located a fixed number of MHz (approximately 200 MHz) above the normal preselector response.
