PNA Series Microwave Network Analyzers General Product Information
N5230A Maintenance
Maintenance
WARNING To prevent electrical shock, disconnect the analyzer from the mains
source before cleaning. Use a dry cloth or one slightly dampened
with water to clean the external case parts. Do not attempt to clean
internally.
Physical Maintenance
Clean the cabinet, including the front panel, using a dry or slightly damp cloth only.
Electrical Maintenance
Refer to “Contacting Agilent” on page 2-11 and to Chapter 3, “Tests and Adjustments.”
Analyzer Options Available
Options as Upgrades
The options described in this section can be ordered as upgrades. Refer to “Analyzer
Upgrades Available” on page 2-6 .
Individual upgrade kits are also available and can be ordered by part number. Refer to
“Upgrade Kits” on page 6-35 for a complete list of available kits.
Option 010, Time Domain
An Option 010 analyzer can display the time domain response of a network or test device
by calculating the inverse Fourier transform of the frequency domain response. This
calculation allows the Option 010 analyzer to show the response of a test device as a
function of time or distance. In time domain, the magnitude and location of a discontinuity
and the characteristics of individual transmission paths of a network or test device can be
determined. Time domain operation retains all the accuracy of active error correction.
Option 014, Configurable Test Set
This option is included in the active measurement configuration.
An Option 014 analyzer can be configured to measure high-power devices and devices for
high dynamic range.
For a high-power measurement, external amplifiers and high power attenuators or
isolators can be added to complete the test setup. Test port output power up to 1 Watt
(
+
30 dBm) can be applied to the device under test (DUT).
Additionally, there is an external reference input that allows the external amplifier’s
frequency response and drift to be ratioed out.
