Keysight PNA Network Analyzers
The microwave PNA Series instruments are integrated vec-
tor network analyzers equipped with a built-in S-parameter
test set, synthesized source, hard and floppy disk drives,
and LCD display. The E8362B analyzer has two 50 ohm, 3.5
mm (m) test ports. The E8363B and E8364B analyzers have
two 50 ohm, 2.4 mm (m) test ports. The E8361A analyzer
has two 50 ohm, 1.85 mm (m) test ports. Included with each
instrument is a mouse and a keyboard (U.S.).
– E8362B Network analyzer, 10 MHz to 20 GHz
– E8363B Network analyzer, 10 MHz to 40 GHz
– E8364B Network analyzer, 10 MHz to 50 GHz
– E8361A Network analyzer, 10 MHz to 67 GHz
– N5250A Network analyzer system, 10 MHz to 110 GHz
Options
– Time-domain capability (Option 010)
For viewing reflection and transmission responses in time or
distance domain.
– Configurable test set (Option 014
Provides six front panel access loops. Three access loops are
for port one and three for port two. 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.
This option provides the capability to improve instrument sensitivity
for measuring low-level signals, to reverse the directional coupler to
achieve even more dynamic range or to add components and other
peripheral instruments for a variety of measurement applications.
(See PNA Series Microwave Data Sheet literature number 5988-
7988EN for a basic block diagram)
– 4-port measurement application (Option 550)
Enables full 4-port error correction and differential measurements on
a 2-port network analyzer with configurable test set.
Option 014 required. External test set required.
– N-port capabilities (Option 551)
Adds full N-port error correction and measurement capabilities to
any PNA network analyzer with configurable test set.
Option 014 required. External test set required.
1.
The E8361A can be extended to 110 GHz with IF access (Option H11).

– Extended power range and bias-tees (Option UNL)
Adds two 60 dB step attenuators and two bias-tees to the
E8362/3/4B. Adds two 50 dB step attenuators and two bias-tees to
the E8361A. A step attenuator and bias-tee set is inserted between
the source and test port one and another set between the source
and test port two. (See PNA Series Microwave Data Sheet literature
number 5988-7988EN for a basic block diagram)
– Frequency offset (Option 080)
This option enables the PNA Series microwave network analyzers to
set the source frequency independently from where the receivers
are tuned. This ability is important for two general classes of devic-
es: mixers (and converters) and amplifiers. Option 080 provides a
very basic user interface.
– Reference receiver switch (Option 081)
Option 081 adds a solid-state internal RF transfer switch in the
R1 reference-receiver path (see PNA Series Microwave Data
Sheet literature number 5988-7988EN for a block diagram). The
switch allows the instrument to easily switch between standard
S-parameter (non-frequency-offset) measurements and frequency
offset measurements such as relative phase or absolute group delay
that require an external reference mixer. The user can set the switch
manually or remotely, but it is best used with the frequency-con-
verter application (Option 083), where it is controlled automatically
during the vector-mixer calibration procedure and subsequent
measurements.
– 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.
– Vector- and scalar-calibrated converter measurements (Option
2
083)
This converter measurement adds an intuitive and easy-to-use user
interface, advanced calibration choices that provide exceptional
amplitude and phase accuracy, and control of external signal sourc-
es for use as local oscillators. Mixer calibration techniques include
scalar-mixer calibration and vector-mixer calibration (requires
Option 081). Finally, the frequency-
converter application supports all of Keysight's major signal source
families.
– Embedded LO Measurements (Option 084)
Advanced software tuning that provides absolute group delay
of converters with embedded LOs without the need for access to a
common reference signal. The measurement result is the same as
locking the DUT LO to the reference mixer LO.
(Options 080 and 083 required) Requires firmware A.07.05
and above plus 1.1 GHz CPU board.
