A measurement channel is coupled to stimulus settings including frequency, IF bandwidth, power level, and number of points. User definable from 2 to 20,001. Number of display windows Segment sweep Sweep type Linear, CW (single frequency), power or segment sweep. Up to 24 active traces and 24 memory traces per window.
Microwave PNA Series Automation SCPI COM/DCOM GPIB LAN Internal X X X X X Methods Controlling via internal analyzer execution Write applications that can be executed from within the analyzer via COM (component object model) or SCPI standard-interface commands. These applications can be developed in a variety of languages, including Visual Basic, Visual C++, Agilent VEE, or LabView™ programming languages. Controlling via GPIB The GPIB interface operates to IEEE 488.
amount in degrees. calibration mixer is part of the calibration process. Microwave PNA Series Data accuracy enhancement Measurement calibration Measurement calibration significantly reduces measurement uncertainty due to errors caused by system directivity, source and load match, tracking and crosstalk. Full two-port calibration removes all the systematic errors to obtain the most accurate measurements.
Microwave PNA Series System capabilities Improved graphical user interface All PNA Series instruments (PNA-X, PNA-L, PNA) now employ the same graphical user interface and front panel layout. In addition, the new touch screen and softkeys make operating the PNA easier than ever. Built-in information system Embedded documentation provides measurement assistance in five different languages (English, Chinese, French, German, Japanese, and Spanish).
Frequency-offset (Option 080) Embedded LO measurements (Option 084) This option enables the PNA Series microwave network analyzers to set the source frequency independently from where the receivers are tuned. This ability is important for two general classes of devices: mixers (and converters) and amplifiers.
IF Access (Option H11) Commercial calibration certificate with test data (Option UK6) Provides hardware to enable antenna, point-in-pulse, and pulse-profile measurements, as well as broadband millimeter-wave measurements to 110 GHz, and banded millimeter-wave measurements to 325 GHz. For each of the microwave PNA’s measurement receivers, IF gates (enabled with pulsed-RF measurement capability Option H08) and external IF inputs are added.
