1 Getting Started22 Keysight U8903A User’s GuideIntroductionThe U8903A is a digital signal processing (DSP)-based audio measurementsystem, with a frequency measurement range of 10 Hz to 100 kHz. The U8903Abasic configuration consists of two channels of audio generator and analyzer. TheU8903A can be configured for up to eight channels, however this feature is onlyapplicable in future releases.The U8903A is provided with a set of features as listed below which allows you toperform a wide range of audio parameter measurements. The U8903A alsosupports industrial standard instrument connectivity such as GPIB, USB, and LAN.In addition, the U8903A is equipped with frequency and time domain graphfunctions, as well as sweep capability for frequency, amplitude, and phase.The U8903A audio generator has a frequency range of 5 Hz to 80 kHz. Its sinewaveform amplitude range is from 0 Vrms to 8 Vrms (11.3 Vp) for the Unbalancedor Common mode test output configuration, and 0 Vrms to 16 Vrms (22.6 Vp) forthe Balanced output configuration.The audio generator features are listed as follows.– Balanced output signals (XLR)– Unbalanced output signals (BNC)– Common mode test output signals (XLR)– Selectable output impedance– Sine waveform– Square waveform– Variable phase waveform– Noise signal– DC signal– Dual sine waveforms which include SMPTE intermodulation distortion (SMPTEIMD) and difference frequency distortion (DFD) waveform types– Multitone generation– User-defined arbitrary waveformThe U8903A audio analyzer has a frequency measurement range of 10 Hz to 100 kHz,as well as an amplitude measurement range of microvolts to 200 Vp (140 Vrms).
