tinySA Ultra - Phase Noise Measurement App in Python

Introduction

The tinySA Ultra ( https://www.tinysa.org/wiki/ ) actually works enough like a regular spectrum analyzer that I decided to write a SSB Phase Noise Measurement Application for it in Python.

Figure 2 - A typical phase noise measurement made with the phase noise app. This is a plot of the tinySA Ultras built in 30 MHz signal generator. The 'Orange' trace above is a curve fit 'Smoothed' representation of the average phase noise measured.
 
You can find the Python 3.12 source code, a windows binary, and more information on my Github repository at,
