3-1 Introduction

This chapter provides a description of the MA25300A millimeter-Wave (mmWave or as labeled, mm-W)
Module. The MA25300A Module is used with the VectorStar ME7838 Series Broadband/BB/mmWave VNA
System.
When the ME7838 system is ordered, the typical configuration provides a 3739C Broadband Test Set and two
mmWave modules to be used with the VNA. Each module is characterized for a specific VNA Serial Number
and a specific VNA Test Port. Additional information for heat sinking and user-defined mounting is given in
