Anritsu enhances broadband VNA.

Test & Measurement World, March, 2007

Staff Anritsu has enhanced its Lightning Broadband ME7808C vector network analyzer (VNA), which characterizes devices over a wide 40-MHz to 110-GHz frequency range. The VNA has been redesigned to provide higher output power to drive active and passive components at optimum measurement levels, and it features improved calibration stability.

Engineers can use the ME7808C in coaxial or on-wafer environments. Among the design enhancements are the relocation of couplers inside the instrument's multiplex combiners, improved Kelvin design bias tees, better RF and LO stability, and greater short-term and long-term calibration and measurement stability. The system now includes an option providing direct sampler access for improved raw directivity and to...
