SPECTRAN V6 ECO 100XA-6

Product information "SPECTRAN V6 ECO 100XA-6"

9 kHz – 6 GHz | 16-bit USB Real-Time Spectrum Analyzer & Signal Generator

The Aaronia SPECTRAN® V6 ECO is a high-performance, cost-effective real-time spectrum analyzer featuring up to 2 × 44 MHz real-time bandwidth at 16-bit resolution.

With its compact aluminum housing (210 × 115 × 30 mm, 850 g) and low power consumption, it’s ideal for both laboratory and mobile applications. Available in RX, dual RX, and RX + TX configurations.


Unmatched Performance

The SPECTRAN® V6 ECO achieves a full 6 GHz sweep in under 2 ms, corresponding to an exceptional 3 THz/s sweep speed (optional). Data is transferred via a USB 3.x interface as raw I/Q or FFT data.

If your computer supports USB Power Delivery (USB-PD), the device can operate without a separate power supply – only a single USB-C cable is required.


Powerful Software

Delivered with RTSA-Suite PRO, a modular real-time analysis software that includes:

  • Over 20 measurement units
  • Five detectors (including AVG and QPEAK)
  • Interfaces for MATLAB®, GNU Radio, and SDRangel
  • Expandable display and analysis modules via license keys

Key Technical Features

  • 2 × 44 MHz IQ bandwidth (dual receiver or TX mode)
  • Up to 3 THz/s sweep speed (optional)
  • Noise floor (DANL): –170 dBm/Hz (with preamp)
  • 16-bit ADC, 2 GSPS sampling rate
  • USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C PD interface
  • Frequency reference accuracy: 0.5 ppm (5 ppb with OCXO option)
  • SDR interfaces: GNU Radio, SDRangel, MATLAB
