Atec Agilent-8753E - Manual

The HP 8753E RF vector network analyzer provides
all the performance and productivity features to
simplify and speed your component measurements in the
30 kHz to 6 GHz frequency range. Its new processor
makes measurement and data-transfer speeds up to seven
times faster than the previous model. Overall throughput
is enhanced by new features such as simultaneous four
parameter display* and adapter-removal calibration. An
integrated, synthesized source provides up to 10 mW of
output power (100 mW for Option 011), 1 Hz frequency
resolution, and linear-frequency, log-frequency, list-
frequency, CW, and power sweep types. Three tuned
receivers allow independent power measurements or
simultaneous ratio measurements over a wide dynamic
range of 105 dB at 6 GHz (with Option 006 frequency
extension) or 110 dB at 3 GHz (standard). The integrated
test set allows you to measure transmission and reflection
characteristics of a device to 6 GHz, without a frequency
doubler.
The HP 8753E network analyzer features two independent
measurement channels. You can choose to display any
combination of reflection and transmission parameters,
in magnitude, phase, group-delay, Smith-chart, polar, SWR,
or time-domain formats. Softkeys let you quickly access
measurement functions, and you can view results in over-
lay or split-screen format on the LCD color display. A
VGA-compatible output has been added to drive larger
external monitors for optimum viewing.

HP 8753E maximizes versatility
and performance
• Frequency range from 30 kHz to 3 GHz, or
optionally 6 GHz.
• Built-in S-parameter test set provides complete
forward and reverse measurements, allowing you
to characterize your component with a single
connection.
• 50 and 75-ohm solutions.
• Superb accuracy. Comprehensive calibration
guarantees accurate measurements. TRL*/LRM*
make calibration in noncoaxial environments easier
and more convenient.
• Mixer testing. Quickly and easily characterize
frequency translating devices such as mixers.
• Add swept harmonic measurements. Characterize
amplifier parameters — gain, 1 dB compression,
match — and 2nd and 3rd harmonic distortion with
the same test setup.
• Built-in 3.5 inch floppy disk drive provides
convenient storage of instrument states and data.
• Parallel and serial ports provide interfaces to
popular printers and plotters. The parallel port
can also be used as a general I/O bus, with user
controllable TTL inputs and outputs. Users can
also connect a DIN keyboard to speed up entry of
titles, labels, or file names, and for remote front
panel operation.
