Environmental characteristics

General conditions

RFI and EMI susceptibility: defined by VDE 0730,
CISPR Publication 11, and FCC Class B Standards.

ESD (electrostatic discharge): must be eliminated by
use of static-safe work procedures and an anti-static
bench mat. The flexible rubber keypad protects key
contacts from dust, but the environment should be as
dust-free as possible for optimal reliability.

Options

Harmonic measurements (Option 002)

Measures amplifier 2nd and 3rd harmonics on a swept-
frequency basis for fundamental signals above 16 MHz. 

Dynamic range 

(source at +10 dBm, 

receiver <+30 dBm)     +40 dBc (minimum)

Accuracy

5

±1 dB (< 6 GHz)

Step attenuator (Option 004)

Provides source output power range from 
-85 to +10 dBm for HP 8753ET model.

6 GHz operation (Option 006)

With Option 006, performance is extended to 6 GHz.
When external source, tuned receiver or harmonic
mode is used, the receiver is capable of measuring sig-
nals up to 6 GHz.

Time domain (Option 010)

Transforms data from the frequency domain to the
time domain using a Fourier transformation technique.

High-stability frequency reference (Option 1D5)

This option adds an ovenized 10-MHz frequency refer-
ence output. It is connected to the external reference
input on the rear panel. See the “General
Characteristics” section for below specifications. 

1. One-port calibration, with a 6 kHz IF bandwidth. Includes system retrace time, but 

does not include bandswitch time. Time-domain gating is assumed off. 

2.  Same as footnote 1, but for an S21 measurement with full two-port calibration. Includes RF switching time.
3. Option 010 only, gating off.
4.  Measured with an HP Omnibook 7100 266 MHz Pentium

® 

II computer.

5. Does not include error from the HP 8753T/ES source and receiver harmonics.
