The Anritsu MS710C is a high-performance microwave spectrum analyzer engineered for signal analysis from 10 kHz to 23 GHz, with optional external mixer capability extending to 140 GHz. It delivers the frequency resolution, dynamic range, and measurement accuracy required for RF/microwave development, production testing, interference analysis, and research applications.
## Technical Specifications
**Frequency Coverage**
• Standard bands: 100 kHz to 2 GHz, 1.7 to 23 GHz
• Optional extended range: up to 140 GHz with external mixers
• Frequency accuracy: 30 kHz / 6.5 GHz (PLL synthesizer local oscillator)
**Resolution & Selectivity**
• Resolution bandwidth: 100 Hz to 3 MHz (manually selectable or span-coupled)
• 1 kHz RBW yields 6 dB selectivity (70 dB/3 dB)
• Frequency span: 1 kHz to 3 MHz/division with fine resolution control
**Dynamic Range & Distortion**
• Average noise floor: -95 dBm (100 kHz to 1 MHz); -115 dBm (1 to 30 MHz)
• Second harmonic distortion: ≤ -100 dB
• Two-signal 3rd intermodulation distortion: ≤ -70 dB (300 kHz to 15 MHz, -30 dBm input)
• Residual response: ≤ -70 dB (10 to 100 kHz, -30 dBm input)
**Sweep & Acquisition**
• Sweep time: 2 ms/division to 10 s/division (manual or auto-coupled)
• Trigger modes: Freerun and TTL with external/internal source selection
## Key Features
• Dual-channel digital memory with simultaneous display of two datasets
