Keysight PNA Series User Manual

– Reference receiver switch (Option 081)
Option 081 adds a solid-state internal RF transfer switch in the R1 reference-
receiver path. The switch allows the instrument to easily switch between standard
S-parameter (non-frequency-offset) measurements and frequency-offset measure-
ments such as relative phase or absolute group delay that require an external refer-
ence mixer.
– Frequency converter measurement application (Option 083)
1
The frequency converter application adds an intuitive and easy-to-use user inter-
face, advanced calibration choices that provide exceptional amplitude and phase
accuracy, and control of external signal sources for use as local oscillators.
– Add receiver attenuators (Option 016)
1
A 50 dB step attenuator is added between each test port and its corresponding
receiver.
– Pulsed-RF measurement capability (Option 008)
1
Provides software to set up and control pulsed-RF measurements with point-in-
pulse capability. The software sets the coefcients of the MW PNA ’s digital-IF lter
to null out unwanted spectral components, enables the IF gates provided with IF
Access (Option H11), and controls selected Keysight pulse generators. It can be run
on the PNA or an external computer. A “.dll ”le containing the IF-lter algorithms is
included for automated pulsed-RF testing. The pulsed application is congured to
work with the Keysight 81110A Series pulse generator. For more detailed information
regarding pulsed measurement capabilities with the PNA refer to the Keysight Web
site www.keysight.com/nd/pna and download the PNA Series MW Conguration
Guide for Pulsed Measurements, literature number 5989-7913EN.
– Rack mount kit without handles (Option 1CM)
Adds a rack mount (5063-9217) and rail kit (E3663AC) for use without handles.
– Rack mount kit with handles (Option 1CP)
Adds rack mount (5063-9237) and rail kit (E3663AC) for use with previously
supplied handles.
External synthesizers
– For frequency bands beyond 220 GHz, an improvement of up to 20 dB may be
gained for the E836xC PNA Option H11 based congurations. N524xA PNA-X and
N522xA PNA Series there is no need to add external sources, please refer to Key-
sight Millimiter-Wave Network Analyzers Technical Overview, part number 5989-
7620EN for typical performance.
– For rack mount congurations a rear panel output is recommended.
Ordering external synthesizers (not required for PNA-X)
– Two external synthesizers are required one for the RF and one for the LO and we
recommend the E8257D with options 520 and UNX.
– For rear panel access to the E8257D option 1EM is available, moves all front panel
connector to the rear.
– When external synthesizers are added, the following cables are also required and
may be purchased separately:
– 5 x BNC (2 for 10 MHz connections and 3 for Trigger connections)
– 2 x 3.5mm (11500 E/F depending on setup and distance)
– 2 x GPIB (10833A 1 meter GPIB cable)
1. Up to 67 GHz.
