The USB-equipped model R60 single-port VNA makes reflection (S11) measurements from 1 MHz to 6 GHz and can be used with any PC with MS Windows operating system. The compact form factor allows the VNA to be directly connected to a device under test (DUT) to eliminate measurement errors associated with test cables.
The two-port model S5065 VNA also uses a USB connection to a PC to provide 138-dB dynamic range for S-parameter measurements from 20 kHz to 6.5 GHz. The pocket-sized VNA can capture as many as 200,001 measurement points per sweep with blazing 70-microsecond measurement speed. It delivers test port power from -50 to +5 dBm. In addition to the analyzers, the firm is also showing it CobaltFx frequency extenders, which models capable of cost-effectively generating millimeter-wave frequencies over waveguide bands of 50 to 75 GHz, 60 to 90 MHz, and 75 to 110 GHz.
In addition to the compact test instruments, the company’s engineering manager, Ben Maxson, is hosting a Wednesday workshop focused on examining the measurement needs of emerging Internet of Things (IoT) applications. The workshop, “Overcoming the Evolving Test and Measurement Requirements of IoT Devices,” is scheduled for Room 202, Sept. 21, from 1:50 to 2:30 p.m.
