Quick Links

The Agilent Technologies 8510C is a modular
family of compatible products. For flexibility in
specifying a solution that meets your exact needs,
a system is typically ordered as separate line
items. For those who wish ordering convenience,
complete bundled systems are available. Whether
ordering individual components or a bundled sys-
tem, all 8510C network analyzers include one-year,
on-site service. For systems built from individual
components, installation may be ordered sepa-
rately. A PC running BASIC Rev 6.3 or higher
under Windows® (3.1/95/NT) is recommended
for installation and service.
Complete systems
Agilent 8510XF family 110 GHz single sweep
systems
(45 MHz to 110 GHz)
The 8510XF family has two models which are
complete single-connection, single-sweep vector
network analyzer systems that offer S-parameter
measurements over an ultra-broadband frequency
in a 1.0 mm coaxial connector. The broadest fre-
quency model covers 45 MHz to 110 GHz. A lower
frequency model is available covering 45 MHz to
85 GHz. Both systems are designed to facilitate
easy connection to wafer probe hardware while
still preserving excellent RF measurement perform-
ance. In addition, the system can be used to make
coaxial measurements (to interface to a coaxial fix-
ture or a coaxial DUT) using the same millimeter
head configuration.

45 MHz to 110 GHz
Configuration Guide
Agilent E7340A single-connection single-sweep network
analyzer system (2 to 85 GHz)
The E7340A is a complete system configured with
an 8510C, a 20 GHz and 50 GHz synthesizer, two
85 GHz S-parameter test heads, and a millimeter
test set controller. The instruments are integrated
in the system rack, the system is fully tested, and a
complete system verification is performed prior to
shipment from Agilent. Installation is included at
no additional charge. The E7340A system does not
include calibration kits or test port cable sets.
System components include:
8510C network analyzer
E7342A millimeter subsystem
83621B synthesizer
83651B synthesizer
System rack
Calibration kits and test port cables are not
included and must be ordered separately.
Test set options
• E7340A-STD Standard configuration
• E7340A-005 Add (45 MHz to 2 GHz) low
frequency extension
• E7340A-006 Add RF pass thru (provides coupled
output of 50 GHz source for additional test
set(s). Additional test set(s) must have
Option 001 installed)
• E7340A-056 Low frequency extension and RF
pass through
Features
• 8510C-010 Add time domain
Voltage options
• E7340A-115 110/120 V line voltage operation
• E7340A-230 220/240 V line voltage operation
Extended service options are available.
