Storage

Removable hard disk drive

Store and recall instrument states, calibration data, and trace data

on 3 GB, minimum, removable hard drive. Trace data can be saved in CSV

(comma separated value) format. All files are MS-DOS

®

-compatible.

Instrument states include all control settings, limit lines, segment sweep

tables, and memory trace data.

File sharing

Internal hard disk drive (D:) can be accessed from an external

Windows

®

PC through LAN.

Disk drive

Instrument states, calibration data, and trace data can be stored on

an internal 3.5 inch 1.4 MB floppy disk in MS-DOS

®

-compatible format.

Screen hardcopy

Printouts of instrument data are directly produced on a printer. The analyzer

provides USB and parallel interfaces.

Option E5070B-008 or E5071B-008 is required.

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 2-port, 3-port, or 4-port calibration

removes all the systematic errors for the related test ports to obtain

the most accurate measurements.

Calibration types available

Response

Simultaneous magnitude and phase correction of frequency response

errors for either reflection or transmission measurements.

Response and isolation

Compensates for frequency response and crosstalk errors of

transmission measurements.

Enhanced response

Compensates for frequency response and source-match errors

One-port calibration

Available on test set port 1, port 2, port 3, or port 4 to correct for directivity,

frequency response and source match errors.

Full 2-port/3-port/4-port calibration

Compensation for directivity, reflection, transmission frequency response and

TRL/LRM calibration

crosstalk in both forward and reverse directions. Provides the highest accuracy for

accuracy for coaxial and non-coaxial environments, such as on-probing, in-fixture

or waveguide measurements.

Interpolated error correction

With any type of accuracy enhancement applied, interpolated mode

recalculates the error coefficients when the test frequencies are changed.

The number of points can be increased or decreased and the start/stop

frequencies can be changed.

Velocity factor

Enter the velocity factor to calculate the equivalent physical length.

Reference port extension

Redefine the measurement plane from the plane where the calibration

was

done.

Automatic port extension

Compensates for both electrical length and insertion loss by measuring open

and/or short standard. Provides a simplified approach for fixture compensation.

Accessible calibration coefficients

Calibration coefficients can be easily read and written

with programming

commands.

Mixer calibration

1

Scalar-mixer calibration

Scalar-mixer calibration corrects the conversion loss for input port source match

and output port load match. Scalar-mixer calibration also corrects the input match

measurements for input port directivity, frequency response, and source match at

the input frequencies and corrects the output match measurements for output

port directivity, frequency response, and source match at output frequencies.

This calibration offers the conversion loss/gain measurements with correcting

the mismatches of both input and output test ports.

Vector-mixer calibration

Vector-mixer calibration corrects for directivity, source match, load match,

and reflection frequency response at each test port by using a characterized

calibration mixer with de-embedding function. This calibration provides the

measurements of phase and absolute group delay. The characterization of the

calibration mixer is part of the calibration process.
