3. Typical Applications
With efficient and strong error correction capability, 3656 Series Vector Network Analyzer supports rapid
and precise measurement of amplitude, phase, and group delay characteristics of S parameters of DUT and
can be used in tests of filter, amplifier, and parts such as attenuator, connector, antenna, cable etc. You may
also select 75
Ω
testing subassembly to perform performance measurements etc. over parts of cable TV.
Steps of basic measurements of 3656 Series Vector Network Analyzer are as follows:
1. Set up Testing Conditions
First preset the analyzer and then set up testing conditions such as “S Parameter”, “Format”, “Intermediate
Frequency Bandwidth”, “Measurement Frequency Range”, “Number of Measuring Points”, “Power Level”
etc. bandwidth.
2. Analyzer Calibration
First select calibration kit and then select calibration type to complete corresponding measurement
calibration and perform error correction over Analyzer.
3. Measurement of DUT
Connect DUT to port of Vector Network Analyzer. Normally, display scale by default cannot reach sound
display results. You may adjust to the most observation friendly testing status via automatic scale and
corresponding scale manually input.
4. Measurement Result Analysis and Output
Mark and analyze measurement results of functions such as cursor, limit line and time domain gate. You
may store measurement results into different formats such as recallable files or pictures on disk.
This Chapter describes some testing examples of DUT in common use with 3656 Series Vector Network
Analyzer. It describes tests over filters and amplifiers in details and other featured functions and setup of
3656 Series Vector Network Analyzer.
Support front panel keys and mouse operation
User interface of 3656 Series Vector Network Analyzer supports front panel of instrument and
mouse operation. The following detailed examples are mainly about operation of front panel
keys. Front panel keys operation corresponds to mouse selected menu operation.
