jaguirreParticipantHi all.
I bought a SA44 (not a SA44B) and I do not know if the Spike software can be used as a SA44B. Can someone tell me what are the differences between the two devices? . Thank you very much
AndrewModeratorHello Jaguirre,
Yes, the SA44 will work just fine with the Spike software. You can download the Spike software at http://www.signalhound.com/Spike. Functionally, you should notice no differences between the SA44 and SA44B other than some RBW restrictions in certain configurations. If you have more specific questions let us know.
Regards,
Andrew
Justin CrooksModeratorJaguirre,
From a hardware standpoint, the SA44 does not have a preamplifier, so the noise figure is much higher. It also has more spurious and residual signals than the SA44B. But it should run in our Spike software. There are additional RBW / VBW limitations for the SA44 as well, for spans larger than 200 kHz.
jaguirreParticipantAndrew and Justin: Ok. I have clarified the subject. I thank both of you for the help. It was very useful. regards
