Specifications
This section contains specifications for the RSA5100B Series Real Time Signal
Analyzers. All specifications are warranted unless noted as a typical specification.

Catagory Description
Specified Characteristics These are the warranted characteristics of the device,
and are tested either on each unit in manufacturing
or by type-
testing. Specified characteristics include
measurement tolerance and temperature limits.
Typical
This is performance that will be met by 80% of
measured values meeting the specification with 80%
confidenc
e, for ambient temperatures in the range
of 18 °C to 28 °C, immediately after performing
a full alignment. Values include the effects of the
uncerta
inties of external calibration references and
aging over the c ourse of the published calibration
interval. These values are determined from
qualific
ation testing and are not warranted or tested in
the performance verification.
Typica
l-95
This is performance that will be met by 95% of
instruments with 95% confidence, for ambient
tempe
ratures in the range of 18 °C to 28 °C,
immediately after performing an alignment. Values
include the effects of the uncertainties of external
calib
ration references and aging over the course of
the recommended calibration interval. These values
are determined from qualification testing and are not
warr
anted or tested in the performance verification.
Typical-mean
This
represents the mean of performance measured
on a sample o f units. Sample data is collected at
laboratory temperature, immediately after performing
an a
lignment. Values do not include the effects
of uncertainties of external calibration references
and aging over the course of the recommended
cal
ibration interval. These v alues are determined from
qualification testing and are not warranted or tested in
the performance verification.
