Technical Datasheet Scalar Network Analyzer Model 8003 - 10 MHz to 40 GHz The Giga-tronics Model 8003 Precision Scalar Network Analyzer combines a 90 dB wide dynamic range with the accuracy and linearity of a power meter in a signal instrument. 35142Rev.
8003 Precision Scalar Network Analyzer Wide Dynamic Range Absolute Power Measurements The Model 8003 Precision Scalar Network Analyzer can make accurate, single sensor power measurements over a frequency range of 10 MHz to 40 GHz with a dynamic range of –70 to +20 dBm. The same built-in calibrator that linearizes the sensor provides a 1 mW signal accurate to within ±0.7%, stable over temperature and time, and traceable to NIST.
8003 Technical Specifications System Specifications Frequency Range: 10 MHz to 40 GHz in coax using the Gigatronics 80300 Series power sensors and 80500 Series bridges. Readout Modes: dBm: single channel power measurement. dB: relative power measurement Lin: nW, μW, mW and Watts: signal channel measurement. %: dual channel measurement. % Rel: dual channel measurement relative to a reference. Power Range: +30 to -70 dBm, see power sensor specifications. Channel Offset: -90 dB to +90 dB in .
8003 Precision Scalar Network Analyzer Cursors and Markers Cursor: The cursor can be positioned with the tuning knob or via the numeric keypad. The frequency and amplitude test data at the cursor on all active channels is digitally displayed. Cursor Delta: Displays differences in dB and frequency between the reference cursor and the main cursor. Cursor Min/Max: Automatically moves the cursor to the minimum or maximum value of test data.
8003 Technical Specifications Reflection Measurements: When measuring devices with high return loss (>10 dB), reflection accuracy is typically dominated by the effective system directivity (Fig. 2), instrument linearity errors, and noise uncertainty. With low return loss devices (<10 dB), reflection accuracy is typically dominated by source match (Fig. 3). Calibration with an open and short effectively removes uncertainties due to frequency response of the source, sensors, and signal splitting device.
8003 Precision Scalar Network Analyzer Absolute Power Measurement Accuracy: The absolute power measurement accuracy is determined by a number of factors including calibrator accuracy, noise, sensor calibration factor error, and the mismatch uncertainty between sensor and device under test. Calibrator: Provides a 50 MHz calibration signal at 51 very accurately controlled levels from +20 to -30 dBm to dynamically linearize the sensors.
8003 Technical Specifications Rear Panel Inputs and Outputs Sweep In (Sweep Voltage Requirements): (BNC connector). 0 to +10 V nominal. Blanking Input: (BNC connector) Used to blank the sweep oscillator (swept signal generator) band switching points on the 8003 display. Voltage level: Blanked > 2 V; Un-blanked < 0.8 V (typical) Input 1: (BNC connector) TTL levels, used with some sweepers (swept signal generator) to provide synchronization.
