Pna Series Test Set And Power Configuration Options - Keysight PNA-X Series Configuration Manual

PNA Series Test Set and Power Configuration Options

The PNA is an integrated vector network analyzer featuring a
built-in S-parameter test set, one or two synthesized sources
used for device stimulus, a solid-state drive, USB interfaces, and
a 12.1" LCD touch screen display. The N5221B and the N5222B
have 50 ohm, ruggedized 3.5 mm (m) test ports. The N5224B
and the N5225B have 50 ohm, ruggedized 2.4 mm (m) test ports.
The N5227B has 50 ohm, ruggedized 1.85 mm (m) test ports.
Included with each instrument is a mouse, keyboard (U.S. style),
test port torque wrench, and one day of on-site productivity
assistance (PS-S20-PNA).
A test set and power configuration option is mandatory. Choose
one of the following:
2-ports, single source, base configuration (Option
200/210)
The 2-port with base configuration has no front-panel access
loops.

2-ports, single source, with configurable test set
(Option 201)
The 2-port configurable test set comes with six front-panel
access loops. 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 at all
ports. Also included is a solid-state internal RF bypass switch in
the R1 reference-receiver path.

2-ports, single source, with configurable test set,
bias tees, and low-frequency extension (Option
205)
Along with the front-panel loops and R1 reference-receiver
switch of Option 201, Option 205 adds bias tees and additional
hardware to extend the start frequency of the PNA down to
900 Hz. The extended start frequency is available only
for the following measurement classes: standard, gain
compression (amplifier and converters), and for magnitude-
only measurements using SMC (scalar mixer/converter) or
SMC+Phase. In the standard channel, pulsed RF, true-mode
stimulus, and source phase control are not supported for
measurements below 10 MHz. The block diagram below shows
how the low-frequency hardware is configured for one test port;
the other test ports are configured similarly.

as separate options, such as pulse modulators (Option 021), and IF
access (Option 020), or is controlled by application software, as is
B
the case for the pulse generators. In addition, the combiner type and
attenuator values vary by model number. Refer to the product data sheet
for the correct block diagram for a specific model.
