Additional information and products (such as calibration kits

and cables) are described throughout this document.

Test set options

–Standard test set and power range (Option xx0)

The 13.5 and 20 GHz versions are available in 2- or 4-ports.

–Configurable test set and extended power range (Option xx5)

Adds front panel access loops and one or two 60 dB step

attenuators as shown in the figures below. This provides the capabil-

ity to improve instrument sensitivity for measuring low-level signals,

to reverse the directional couplers to achieve even more dynamic

range or to add components and other peripheral instruments for a

variety of measurement applications. The 13.5 and 20 GHz versions

are available in 2- or 4-ports.

–Configurable test set, extended power range and internal second

source (Option x46)

Available with 4-port models only, this option adds an internal

second source, nine front panel access loops and two 60 dB step

attenuators as shown in the figure below. This provides |an additional

signal (fixed or swept) for two-tone third-order-intercept (TOI) and

intermodulation testing of amplifiers; or it can be used as a fast

swept-LO signal for fixed-IF testing of mixers and converters. In

either case, sweep speed is more than twenty times faster than

using an external source (Option 080 recommended. Please note,

Option 080 is needed in order to have independent control of the two

internal sources.)

PNA-L (N5230A)

Additional options

–Time domain (Option 010)

This option enables the PNA Series to view reflection and

transmission responses in both time or distance domain.

Use time domain to tune filters, gate out the response of

fixtures and cables, characterize the impedance of trans-

mission line, and more.

–Frequency offset (Option 080)

This option enables the PNA Series to set the source fre-

quency independently from where the receivers are tuned.

This ability is important for two general classes of devices:

mixers (and converters) and amplifiers.

–Scalar-calibrated converter measurements (Option 082)

With a simple setup and calibration, this application

provides the highest accuracy for conversion-loss (or gain)

measurements by combining one-port and power-meter

calibrations to remove mismatch errors. Option 080

required.

–4-port measurement application (Option 550)

Enables full 4-port error correction and differential mea-

surements on a 2-port network analyzer with configurable

test set (Option x25). External test set required. User

installable.

–N-port capabilities (Option 551)

Adds full N-port error correction and measurement capa-

bilities to any PNA-L network analyzer with configurable

test set (Option xx5 or x46). External test set required.

User installable.

Certification options

–Commercial calibration certification with test data (Option UK6)

Complete set of measurements which tests unit to manufac-

turer’s published specifications. Includes calibration label,

calibration certificate, and data report. Conforms to ISO

9001.

–ISO 17025 compliant calibration (Option 1A7)

Complete set of measurements which tests unit to manufac-

turer’s published specifications. Includes calibration label,

ISO 17025 calibration certificate, and data report, mea-

surement uncertainties and guardbands on all customer

specifications. Conforms to ISO 17025 and ISO 9001.

–ANSI Z540 compliant calibration (Option A6J)

Complete set of measurements which tests unit to man-

ufacturer’s published specifications. Includes pre- and

post-adjustment data with measurement uncertainty

information compliant to the ANSI/NCSL Z540 standard.

PNA-X Network Analyzer

The PNA-X is an integrated vector network analyzer

featuring a built-in S-parameter test set, one or two

synthesized sources used for device stimulus, a hard disk

drive, USB interfaces, and a 10.4” LCD touch screen display.

The N5242A analyzer has 50 ohm, ruggedized 3.5 mm (m)

test ports. Included with each instrument is a mouse and a

keyboard (U.S. style).

–N5242A Network analyzer, 10 MHz to 26.5 GHz, 2 or 4

ports

Test set options

–2-port standard test set and power range (Option 200)

The standard 2-port test set comes with six front-panel access

loops. The loops provide access to the signal path between (a) the

source output and the reference receiver, (b) the source output

and directional coupler thru arm and (c) the coupled arm of the

directional coupler and the port receiver. The standard test set

also includes a solid-state internal RF transfer switch in the R1

reference-receiver path.

–4-port standard test set, power range and an internal second

source (Option 400)

The standard 4-port test set comes with 12 front-panel access

loops and a built-in second source. The loops provide access to

the signal path between (a) the source output and the reference

receiver, (b) the source output and directional coupler thru arm and

The internal second source provides an additional signal (fixed or

swept) for two-tone third-order-intercept (TOI) and intermodulation

testing of amplifiers, or it can be used as a fast swept-LO signal for

fixed-IF testing of mixers and converters. With two sources, source

1 is accessible through test ports 1 and 2, and source 2 is accessi-

ble through test ports 3 and 4. The standard test set also includes a

solid-state internal RF transfer switch in the R1 reference-receiver

path. Recommends Option 080.

–Extended power range and bias-tees (Option 219, 419)

Adds to the standard test set one 65 dB source attenuator (settable

in 5 dB increments), one 35 dB receiver attenuator (settable in 5

dB increments), and one bias-tee to each test port. Option 219

requires Option 200, and Option 419 requires Option 400.

–Add an internal second source, a combiner and mechanical

switches to 2-port analyzer (Option 224)

Available with 2-port model only, this option adds an internal

second source, a combiner and mechanical switches. The internal

second source provides an additional signal (fixed or swept) for

two-tone third-order-intercept (TOI) and intermodulation testing of

amplifiers, or it can be used as a fast swept-LO signal for fixed-IF

testing of mixers and converters. The mechanical switches provide

increased flexibility by having rear panel access to signal paths for

advanced applications. Access to the second source is available

through two output (SMA) connectors on the front panel. Requires

Options 200, 219 and 080.

–Add an internal combiner and mechanical switches to 4-port

analyzer (Option 423)

Available with 4-port model only, this option adds a combiner and

mechanical switches. The mechanical switches provide increased

flexibility by having rear panel access to signal paths for advanced

applications. Requires Options 400, 419 and 080.
