  • Page 7: Description

    Z5623A Option H01 Description Description The Z5623A Option H01 Dynamic Accuracy Test Set is designed for use with the PNA and PNA-X Series Network Analyzers. The Z5623A H01 can measure a receiver's relative power linearity (dynamic accuracy) when used with an E-Series power meter, a thermocouple power sensor, and a test algorithm. The Z5623A H01 was designed for maximum measurement accuracy over a 120 dB dynamic range.

  • Page 18: Operation

    Z5623A Option H01 Operation Operation The Z5623A Option H01 is a “slave” instrument: a controller must be used to control the test set. The controller can control the test set using GPIB commands via the GPIB connector. Commands The only way to control the test set is to address the Option H01 test set directly over GPIB using a controller to write directly to the test set's GPIB port.

Reset Command When the Reset command is sent, the test set is set to the default state where the attenuators are set to 0 dB and the amplifier is switched out.
  • Page 22: Service Information

    The use of adapters may be required and their effects should be accounted within the measurements. Prior to June 2007, the Z5623A Option H01 had hard specifications, therefore a calibration certificate was available for the test set. The specifications have now been replaced with typical performance characteristics.

  • Page 30: Theory Of Operation

    Figure 11 Simplified Block Diagram The Z5623A Option H01 was designed to allow a power meter to be used as the linearity reference. The power splitter and attenuators AT_a and AT_b are used in conjunction to vary the power to the receiver by 120 dB while the power delivered to the power meter stays within a 10 dB range.
  • Page 31: Power Supply Theory

    Z5623A Option H01 Theory of Operation It is necessary to eliminate the step size error and the mismatch error between the receiver and the test set whenever AT_b switches. This is done using an attenuator correction measurement embedded into the measurement algorithm. The source power of the network analyzer is adjusted until the receiver reads the same power before and after the attenuators are changed.
