The U9391C comb generator is controlled by the N5242A 26 GHz PNA-X network
analyzer via a USB connection (options required: 400, 419, 080, 510). The U9391F
comb generator can be used with the N5245A 50 GHz PNA-X network analyzer via
USB connection (options required: 400, 419, 080, 510). The U9391G comb generator
can be used with the N5247A 67 GHz PNA-X network analyzer via USB connection
(options required: 400, 419, 080, 510). The N5242A/45A/47A PNA-X network
analyzers can be upgraded to perform nonlinear component characterization.

Two units of U9391C/F/G are required to carry out non-linear measurements.
One unit is used as the phase reference module and the second unit as the
phase calibration module.

The U9391C/F/G units need to be powered by separate power supplies. The
NVNA software automatically controls the U9391C/F/G units via USB after they
have been designated as phase reference and calibration modules respectively.

The phase calibration procedure is carried out by following the on-screen
instructions on the PNA-X. After completing the calibration, the U9391C/F/G
unit used for phase calibration can be disconnected. The other unit will be used
as the phase reference and must remain connected while the measurement is
carried out.
