Agilent/Keysight 3575A

The Agilent/Keysight 3575A is a dual-channel gain-phase meter that measures amplitude and phase across a 1 Hz to 13 MHz broadband range without requiring tuning. It delivers direct characterization of transfer functions, impedance ratios, and absolute signal levels for amplifiers, filters, feedback control systems, and RF/audio devices.
