    Tests and Adjustments PNA Series Microwave Network Analyzers About System Verification and Performance Tests N5221A/22A About System Verification and Performance Tests The performance of the network analyzer is specified in two ways: system specifications, and instrument specifications. It is the end user’s responsibility to determine which set of specifications is applicable to their use of the PNA.
  • Page 35: System Verification Procedure

    PNA Series Microwave Network Analyzers Tests and Adjustments N5221A/22A About System Verification and Performance Tests System Verification Procedure The system verification procedure tests the network analyzer measurement “system”, as defined previously, against the system specifications. If confirmation is successful, the measurement system is capable of making measurements to the accuracy specified by the graphs of measurement uncertainty.
  • Page 36: Certificate Of Calibration

    If you have a measurement application that does not use all of the measurement capabilities of the analyzer, you may ask your local Keysight Technologies service office to verify only a subset of the specifications. However, this “limited calibration” creates the possibility of making inaccurate measurements if you then use the analyzer in an application requiring additional capabilities.
