Automatic fixture removal (S97007A)
P937xA Series
P500xA Series
Many devices do not have coaxial connectors and are put in fixtures in order to measure them in a
coaxial environment. Accurately removing the effects of the fixture is required to get a good measurement
of the device under test (DUT). This application adds a powerful application wizard to guide you through
characterizing a fixture and removing it from the measurement. Devices can be single-ended or
differential. Files can be saved in a variety of formats for later use in ENA, PNA, PXI VNA, USB VNA,
ADS, and PLTS.
Time domain analysis (S97010A)
P937xA Series
P500xA Series
This application enables the analyzer to view reflection and transmission responses in time or distance.
Use time domain to tune filters, gate out the response of fixtures and cables, characterize the impedance
of transmission lines and more.
Basic Pulsed-RF measurements (S97025A)
P937xA Series
P500xA Series
This application enables internal pulse generators that can be used to control the internal pulse
modulators, and it provides an integrated pulse application that uses the wideband-detection method. The
software requires hardware option 021 pulse modulator hardware.
The pulse application provides an easy way to set up point-in-pulse measurements with pulse width as
narrow as 1 us, and pulse-profile measurements with 40 ns minimum timing resolution. Using the built-in
pulse modulators, the USB VNAs are complete pulsed-RF measurement solutions, eliminating the need
for external test sets and pulse generators. S97025A also controls external pulse generators and
modulators and can synchronize to external master pulses. The Y1731A PXI Adapter Module is
recommended if using external master pulses or external pulse modulators.
