These can be used:


LNA: (NVA, NFA, Spectrum A)
Mixer: (NVA, NFA, Spectrum A)
VCO: Spectrum A or dedicated insrument (PN9000 from aeroflex is an example, but Agilent has it's own dedicated intrument, check the web)
PLL: Spectrum A or dedicated insrument (PN9000 from aeroflex is an example, but Agilent has it's own dedicated intrument, check the web)
IF ADC, Filter: for the filter a Spectrum A, for the ADC I don't know...

I hope it can help
