Definitions and requirements
This data sheet contains specifications and supplemental
information for Agilent N9342C handheld spectrum
analyzer. The differences between specifications, typical
performance, and nominal values are described as follows.
Definitions
"Specifications" describe the performance of parameters
covered by the product warranty and apply to temperatures
ranging from –10 to 50 °C, unless otherwise noted.
95th percentile values indicate the breadth of the popula-
tion (> 2) of performance tolerances expected to be met in
95% of the cases with a 95% confidence, for any ambient
temperature in the range of 20 to 30 °C. In addition to the
statistical observations of a sample of instruments, these
values include the effects of the uncertainties of external
calibration references. These values are not warranted.
These values are updated occasionally if a significant
change in the statistically observed behavior of production
instruments occurs.
"Typical" describes additional product performance
information that is not covered by the product warranty. It
is performance beyond specification that 80% of the units
exhibit with a 95% confidence level over the temperature
range of 20 to 30 °C. Typical performance does not include
measurement uncertainty.
"Nominal values" indicate expected performance, or
describe product performance that is useful in the applica-
tion of the product, but is not covered by the product
warranty.
Your job just got easier:
• Get the features you need in a field-ready instrument.
• Gain confidence in your measurements with benchtop performance in a handheld instrument.
• Innovative task planner
delivers test automation and consistency, and makes it easy to capture test results, generate
reports, and share task plans with others.
Conditions required to meet specifications
The following conditions must be met for the analyzer to
meet its specifications.
• The analyzer is within its calibration cycle.
• Under auto couple control, except when Swp Time Rule
is set to Accuracy.
• Any analyzer that has been stored at a temperature
range inside the allowed storage range but outside the
allowed operating range must be stored at an ambient
temperature within the allowed operating range for at
least two hours before being turned on.
• The analyzer has been turned on at least 30 minutes.
Certification
Agilent Technologies certifies that this product met its
published specifications at the time of shipment from the
factory. Agilent Technologies further certifies that its cali-
bration measurements are traceable to the United States
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), to
the extent allowed by the Institute’s calibration facility, and
to the calibration facilities of other International Standards
Organization (ISO) members.
