How does a vector network analyzer work?

common problems 5460

A network analyzer consists of a signal source and a receiver. The receiver will detect changes in the output signal of the device (or network) and then compare it to the source signal fed into the device. To evaluate the effect of the device on current and voltage, the VNA measures the resulting amplitude and phase response. This results in transmission and reflection measurements, impedance, and s-parameters from which test engineers can characterize their device under test.

  • What is Keysight Trueform Waveform Generation Technology?

    526

    Trueform waveform generation is a technology unique to the Keysight 33600A and 33500B series Trueform waveform generators. Keysight Trueform technology represents another leap forward in waveform generation technology, giving you the best of both worlds: it is comparable in cost to DDS technology, but delivers predictable, low-noise waveforms that don't skip, just like PPC technology....

  • What is a digital multimeter?

    574

    A multimeter is an instrument that can measure a wide range of parameters, such as alternating (AC) or direct current (DC) voltage, AC or DC current, resistance, temperature, capacitance, and so on. Modern digital multimeters use digital and logic technology to become smaller and smaller with more and more built-in functions. By introducing digital technology, digital multimeters can provide graphical displays, data logging and signal digitization as well as...

  • What are the advantages of Trueform technology?

    558

    Its advantages include: Ultra-low jitterTrueform function/arbitrary waveform generators have jitter as low as 1 ps and excellent edge stability. You can even use them as system clocks for timing and triggering other instruments. Thanks to better jitter performance, you can locate edges more accurately, which helps reduce timing errors in circuit design. Ultra-low...
