Active Component Evaluation and Test Measurement challenges Use Keysight vector network analyzers to characterize and test active components, such as amplifiers, mixers, and frequency converters. They can easily measure commonly specified amplifier parameters such as gain, gain and phase compression, isolation, return loss, and group delay. Analysis of harmonic distortion helps to understand an amplifier’s nonlinear behavior and requires the receiver to be tuned at a different frequency from the source. Frequency-translating devices, such as mixers and frequency converters present unique measurement challenges because their input and output frequencies are different. Network analyzers used for testing these devices need to have a frequency-offset mode (FOM) to detect output frequencies different from the input. Using additional instruments and signal conditioning devices for testing for two-tone, higher input and output power, or for other types of measurements including noise figure, EVM and phase noise often results in a more complicated test system that requires multiple stations. Keysight solutions Keysight offers a wide range of flexible and affordable test solutions for vector network analysis of active components. Keysight’s VNAs include the ability for linear and nonlinear characterization with the highest accuracy. In addition to high performance, a variety of measurement applications simplify setup, reduce test time, and improve measurement accuracy.

Passive Component Evaluation and Test Measurement challenges For quality communications systems, high performance passive devices such as filters, combiners, switches, and transmission lines often require low ripple and low insertion loss in the pass band, and high rejection ratios in the stop band. Devices used in balanced circuits have multiple input and output ports that complicate measurement system configurations. For these devices, the key measurement challenge is to easily get accurate data, as fast as possible. Use a wide measurement-frequency range to characterize multi-band operations. Keysight solutions Keysight VNAs have a broad frequency range; from 5 Hz to 1.5 THz. Low trace noise, advanced calibration techniques, and good stability help evaluate your passive components with the required accuracy.

General Purpose, Education Measurement challenges General-purpose vector network analyzers are essential in education institutions and many other RF labs. Users typically require measurements of S-parameters, power, and sometimes material parameters, for a broad range of passive and active components, with both single-ended and differential inputs and outputs. Devices typically have 2-, 3- and sometimes 4-ports, and must be measured in coaxial, in-fixture, or on-wafer environments. Active devices like amplifiers, mixers, and frequency-converters often require considerable time to measure all necessary parameters. Test equipment is not used every day and is often shared with other groups.

Manufacturing Measurement challenges Driving down the cost of test is the key challenge in manufacturing, and there are multiple factors that influence this. One key factor is throughput. You can divide the measurement time of a VNA into several different contributions such as sweep speed, data analysis, display processing, and data transfer. In many cases, the analyzer must send pass/fail results to an automated system. The sweep speed and data- analysis speed are critical for high-volume manufacturing. Being able to minimize the amount of operator intervention, as well as connection and calibration times will also affect measurement throughput. Initial procurement cost, system uptime, maintenance costs, and future performance upgrade costs for test stations also affect total cost of ownership. Keysight solutions Keysight offers a broad range of VNAs with very fast data- acquisition speeds and excellent repeatability due to low trace noise and high temperature stability – essential elements to optimize manufacturing test. Many VNAs have a parts-handler interface to achieve fast throughput on an automated production line. Discover the optimal VNA for your manufacturing environment and pay for only for the capabilities you need to minimize your initial procurement costs.
