Agilent B2900A for DC Bias to Network Analyzer
4.6 Agilent B2900A for DC Bias to Network Analyzer
The B2900A is the ideal bias source to use with network analyzers for the evaluation of transistor DC
and RF characteristics. The B2900A series supports enhanced trigger functions that enable each step
of a bias sweep it performs to be synchronized with a frequency sweep performed by a network
analyzer.
For details, refer to the Technical Overview, Fast fT-Ic Measurement Using the B2900Aseries
(5990-6895EN).
