The Agilent-Hp 70902A IF Section is a 1/8-width module, providing a resolution bandwidth of 10 Hz to 300 kHz, designed for use in a 70000 Series Modular System. The module processes a 21.4 MHz signal from a spectrum analyzer RF section or external mixer interface module. A detected video signal is produced and routed to the video processor in the local oscillator. The module contains resolution badnwith filters, log amplifiers, detection circuitry, and video filters. The 70902A can be used with a 70903A in a single system to provide resolution bandwidths of 10 Hz to 3 MHz.
The 70902A is a slave module and as such is controlled by the system master for example, the 70900A local Oscillator.
