TTi unveils latest RF spectrum Analyzer

The PSA Series II is a new series of handheld spectrum analyzer available 1.3 GHz and 2.7 GHz versions. The instrument are smaller and have longer battery life than other handheld RF product. It builds upon the success of the PSA-T series offers a light weighted and truly handheld instrument that incorporates an extensive feature set . PSA1302 and PSA2702 offer every engineer an opportunity to own a spectrum analyzer regardless of their particular specialty.

Handheld spectrum analyzer with PSA series II weighs only 560 gms and is just 9.2 cm wide fit easily into the hand. Despite their small size, the analyzer incorporates 11 cm back lit TFT color display with touch screen and high-capacity rechargeable battery that gives more than 8 hours of operation from a charge.
