The Keysight (Agilent) 8992A Digital Video Power Analyzer is a specialized instrument for precise characterization of complex pulsed signals in digital video and audio applications. It delivers automated timing and power measurements that streamline power consumption analysis of digital video equipment. The analyzer simulates realistic propagation models for analog and digital television, including static and time-varying ghosts, while 12-bit processing minimizes signal distortion. Dual oscilloscope channels enable simultaneous measurement of modulating and detected power waveforms, supporting detailed signal characterization across a sensor-dependent frequency range of 20 MHz to 40 GHz.
