The Keysight (Agilent) 8970B-020 Noise Figure Meter delivers precise, microprocessor-driven measurement of noise figure and gain across a 10 MHz to 2 GHz frequency range. It supports 0 to 30 dB noise figure measurements with ±0.1 dB instrumentation uncertainty and gain measurements from -20 to +40 dB with ±0.15 dB uncertainty. Designed for RF and microwave testing, it utilizes ENR calibration tables with automatic interpolation for accuracy. Input SWR reference impedance ensures consistent signal integrity throughout the measurement chain.
Optimized for test environments requiring extended frequency coverage, the 8970B-020 simplifies both development and production-level evaluation of active components.
