Y1800A RF Training Kit and Lab Sheets

Data Sheet

The Keysight Technologies, Inc. Y1800A RF training kit serves as a ready-to-teach package in the areas of RF principles, test & measurement, and RF communications. This is a lecturer resource consisting of RF transceiver kit, lab sheets and model answers, and problem-based assignments.

RF transceiver kit

The RF transceiver kit consists of a transmitter unit and a receiver unit in superheterodyne architecture. The transceiver units are made up of various RF building-block modules such as filter, low noise amplifier, power amplifier, mixer and oscillator. The RF transceiver kit is controlled by a Windows-based Control Panel software via USB.
