3 Definitions and test conditions Specifications describe the instrument's warranted performance after a half-hour warm-up and over the temperature range of 25 ËC ± 5 ËC, unless otherwise stated. Specifications for frequencies above 3 GHz do not apply to instruments with Option 075 (75-ohm impedance). Supplemental characteristics are typical but non-war- ranted performance parameters. These are denoted as âtypical,â ânominal,â or âapproximate.â The measurement uncertainty curves and measure- ment port characteristics given for HP 8753ES systems also apply to the HP 8753ES with Options 006 and 011 and the HP 85047A test set (50-ohm), or the HP 8753ES Option 011 with an HP 85046B test set (75-ohm). Dynamic range System dynamic range is calculated as the difference between the receiver noise floor and the lesser of either the source maximum output or the receiver maximum input level. System dynamic range applies to transmission measurements only , since reflection mea- surements are limited by directivity . Noise floor is specified as the mean of the noise trace over frequency . Noise floor is measured with the test ports terminated in loads, full two-port error correc- tion for the HP 8753ES and enhanced-response error correction for the HP 8753ET (with 16 averages used during isolation), 10 Hz IF bandwidth (BW), maximum test port power , and no averaging during the measure- ment. Measurement uncertainty Measurement uncertainty curves utilize a Root Sum Square (RSS) model for the contribution of random errors such as noise, typical connector repeatabilities, and test set switching; this is combined with a worst- case model for the contributions of dynamic accuracy and residual systematic errors. Curves show the worst-case magnitude and phase uncertainty for reflection and transmission measure- ments, after a full two-port error correction for the HP 8753ES and enhanced-response error correction for the HP 8753ET (including isolation with an averag- ing factor of 16) using the specified cal kit, with 10 Hz IF bandwidth (BW) and no averaging. Measurement port characteristics Characteristics show the residual system uncertainties for uncorrected performance and after accuracy enhancement using full two-port error correction for the HP 8753ES and enhanced-response error correc- tion for the HP 8753ET . These characteristics apply for an environmental temperature of 25 ± 5 ËC, with less than 1 ËC deviation from the calibration tempera- ture. HP 8753ET Option 004 may degrade transmission source match as much as 2 dB, resulting in up to 0.05 dB additional uncertainty in transmission tracking. Corrected performance indicates residual error after calibration. It is determined by the quality of calibra- tion standards, system repeatability , stability , and noise. Uncorrected performance indicates intrinsic errors without calibration correction applied. This is related to the ultimate stability of a calibration.

16 HP 8753ET/ES supplemental characteristics Measurement Number of display channels Four display channels available. Number of measurement channels T wo primary and two auxiliary measurement channels available. Measurement parameters HP 8753ET : Reflection, transmission, A, B, R, A/R, B/R, A/B. Conversion to impedance or admittance. HP 8753ES: S11, S21, S12, S22, A, B, R, A/R, B/R, A/B. Conversion to impedance or admittance. Formats Cartesian: log/linear magnitude, phase, group delay , SWR, real and imaginary . Smith chart: with log/linear amplitude and phase, R jX, G jB, or real/imaginary markers. Polar: with linear/log amplitude, phase, or real and imaginary markers. Data markers Each display channel has five independent markers that can be displayed simultaneously . T wenty indepen- dent markers can be displayed in 4-channel display mode when markers are uncoupled. Marker functions Markers can be used in various functions: Marker search (Mkr to max, Mkr to min, Mkr to target), Mkr bandwidth with user -defined target values, Mkr to start, Mkr to stop, Mkr to center , Mkr to span, Mkr to reference, Mkr to delay , and trace statistics (average value, standard deviation, and peak-to-peak deviation of the data trace between two markers). The tracking function enables continuous update of marker search values on each sweep. Group delay characteristics Aperture: selectable Maximum aperture: 20% of frequency span Minimum aperture: (freq. span) / (number of points 1) Range The maximum delay is limited to measuring no more than 180Ë of phase change within the minimum aper- ture. Range = 1 / (2 x minimum aperture) Accuracy The following graph shows group-delay accuracy at 1.3 GHz with type-N full two-port calibration and 10-Hz IF bandwidth. Insertion loss is assumed to be < 2 dB and electrical length to be ten meters. Source control Sweep limits Set start/stop or center/span of the stimulus parameter (frequency , power , time) directly through the source control keys and the control knob, the step keys or the data entry keyboard. Sweep type Set a linear or logarithmic sweep, an arbitrarily defined frequency list, a power sweep or a CW (single frequen- cy) type of sweep. Measured number of points per sweep Linear frequency: choose 3, 11, 26, 51, 101, 201, 401, 801, or 1601 points. Fast swept list Define up to 30 different sub-sweep frequency ranges in any combination of CW , center/span, or start-stop sweep modes. Set test-port power levels and IF band- width independently for each segment. Sweep modes Set a coupled channel sweep (same stimulus condi- tions on both channels) or an uncoupled channel sweep. Chop/alternate Select whether to alternately or simultaneously (chop) measure channels when in dual-channel mode. Chop mode is faster , while alternate mode optimizes dynam- ic range. Sweep time Set sweep time in seconds, minutes or hours. Automatic sweep time Select auto sweep time by entering zero seconds sweep time. The analyzer will sweep at the minimum sweep time for any subsequently selected stimulus conditions. Auto sweep time is the default condition.
17 HP 8753ET/ES supplemental characteristics (continued) Sweep trigger Set to either continuous, single, group sweep, or exter- nal trigger . Set external trigger to take a complete sweep or to measure individual points in a frequency , power or list sweep. Power Set source power from -20 to 5 dBm for the HP 8753ET 1 or from -85 to 10 dBm for the HP 8753ES 2 . Power slope can be set in dBm/GHz. Power meter calibration Select continuous leveling or use a correction table to modify source power . The correction table is created with an initial single sweep. Make single or multiple power meter readings at each frequency . Data accuracy enhancement Measurement calibration Measurement calibration significantly reduces mea- surement uncertainty due to errors caused by system directivity , source and load match, tracking, and crosstalk. Full two-port calibration removes all the sys- tematic errors to obtain the most accurate measure- ments. Calibration types available ⢠Frequency response Simultaneous magnitude and phase correction of fre- quency response errors for either reflection or trans- mission measurements. ⢠Response and isolation Compensates for frequency response and directivity (reflection) or frequency response and crosstalk errors. ⢠Enhanced response calibration Corrects for frequency response and source match for transmission measurements, and provides one-port calibration for reflection measurements. ⢠One-port calibration Uses test set port 1 or port 2 to correct for directivity , frequency response and source match errors. ⢠T wo-port calibration Compensates for directivity , source match, reflection frequency response, load match, transmission frequen- cy response and crosstalk for an S-parameter test set. Crosstalk calibration can be omitted. A vailable on HP 8753ES analyzers. ⢠TRL*/LRM* calibration Compensates for directivity , reflection and transmis- sion frequency response, and crosstalk in both the for- ward and reverse directions. Especially suitable for calibrating non-coaxial environments, such as in test fixtures. TRL*/LRM* is a special implementation of TRL/LRM calibration, modified for the three-sampler receiver in the HP 8753ES. A vailable on HP 8753ES analyzers. Interpolated error correction W ith any type of accuracy enhancement applied, inter- polated mode recalculates the error coefficients when the test frequencies are changed. The number of points can be increased or decreased and the start/stop frequencies can be changed, but the result- ing frequency span must be a subset of the original cal- ibration frequency span. System performance is not specified for measurements with interpolated error correction applied. V elocity factor Enters the velocity factor to calculate equivalent elec- trical length. Reference plane extension Redefine the plane-of-measurement reference to other than port 1 or port 2 of the HP 8753ET and 8753ES. Select default calibration kit Select from a list of standard calibration kits or choose a user -defined kit. Data averaging IF bandwidth: The IF bandwidth is selectable from 6 kHz to 10 Hz W eighted sweep-to-sweep averaging: A verages vector data on each successive sweep. T race smoothing Computes the moving average of adjacent data points. Smoothing aperture defines the trace width (number of points) to be averaged, and ranges from 0.25% to 20% of the trace width. Display control Display formats Single-channel, dual-channel overlay (both traces on one graticule), dual-channel split (each trace on sepa- rate graticules), three-channel split (each trace on separate graticules), three-channel overlay (three traces on one graticule), quad-channel overlay (four traces on one graticule), quad-channel split (each trace on separate graticules). 1. -85 to 5 dBm with Option 004. 2. 8 dBm maximum with Option 075 or 014.

Adjust display Customize the color and brightness of the data traces, memory traces, reference lines, graticules, text, and warning messages. Default colors can be recalled along with one set of user -defined display values. Storage Instrument state Up to 31 instrument states can be stored internally or recalled via the SA VE/RECALL menu. Instrument states include all control settings, active limit lines, active list frequency tables, memory trace data, active calibration coefficients, and custom display titles. Storage is in nonvolatile memory . T est sequences Six measurement sequences can be stored or recalled via the sequencing menu. Sequences may also be recalled from Preset menu. Sequence register 6 is part of nonvolatile storage and is not erased during a power cycle. If sequence 6 is titled AUTO, it will be executed when power is turned on. Disk drive Data, instrument states, user graphics, data plots and test sequences can be stored on internal floppy disk in MS-DOS ® or Hewlett-Packard's standard LIF formats. Data hardcopy Data plotting Hardcopy plots are automatically produced with HP- GL compatible digital plotters. The HP 8753ET/ES pro- vides Centronics, RS-232C, and GP-IB interfaces. Data listings Printouts of instrument data are directly produced with a printer such as the HP DeskJet or LaserJet. Select black & white or color print. For a list of compatible printers, consult our printer -compatibility guide W eb page at http://www .hp.com/go/pcg Configure plots Configure plots completely from the network analyzer by defining pen color and line type for data, text mark- ers, graticules, and memory traces. Functions Plot trace(s), graticule(s), marker(s), or text including operating and system parameters. Quadrants Plot entire display in one of four different quadrants of the plotter paper . System capabilities Limit lines Define test limit lines that appear on the display for go/no go testing. Lines may be any combination of hor- izontal, sloping lines, or discrete data points. Limit-test TTL output available for external control or indication. External source mode The receiver (input R) detects and phase-locks to any externally generated CW signal. Receiver inputs A and B will measure this same frequency for comparison or tracking measurements. Automatic The input signal frequency is counted and displayed. Manual Measures the input signal closest to the frequency specified by the user (within 0.5 to 5 MHz). T uned receiver T unes the receiver for a synthesized CW input signal at a precisely specified frequency . The time bases of the external RF source or sources must be tied to the external reference input (rear panel BNC). The built- in RF source is not used.

Service menu Select the desired service test, service diagnostic, ser- vice or verification mode. T est sequences Description Create, edit, save or recall a series of front-panel key- strokes to automate a measurement. T est sequences may contain basic stimulus and measurement func- tions (frequency , power , parameter , format, scale) advanced operations (time domain, limit testing, dis- play marker values) and basic logical branching (IF limit test fails DO sequence 5 or GOSUB). Storage T est sequences can be stored internally to a disk drive and can be loaded from a computer over the GP-IB interface. Sequence 6 is saved in nonvolatile storage and can be used as an autostart routine when titled AUTO. General purpose input/output Read or write bits to the output port to control exter- nal devices such as part handlers. Eight output and five input TTL lines are available on the parallel port. Other functions P AUSE/continue, wait, title sequence, print sequence, duplicate sequence, pause and select. T ime-domain (Option 010) W ith the time-domain option, data from transmission or reflection measurements in the frequency domain are converted to the time domain using a Fourier transformation technique (chirp Z) and presented on the display . The time-domain response shows the mea- sured parameter value versus time. Markers may also be displayed in electrical length (or physical length if the relative propagation velocity is entered). T ime stimulus modes T wo types of time excitation stimulus waveforms can be simulated during the transformations, a step and an impulse. ⢠Low-pass step This stimulus, similar to a traditional time-domain reflec- tometer (TDR) stimulus waveform, is used to measure low-pass devices. The frequency-domain data should extend from DC (extrapolated value) to a higher value. ⢠Low-pass impulse This stimulus is also used to measure low-pass devices. ⢠Bandpass impulse The bandpass impulse stimulates a pulsed RF signal (with an impulse envelope) and is used to measure the time-domain response of band-limited devices. W indows The windowing function can be used to modify (filter) the frequency-domain data and thereby reduce over- shoot and ringing in the time-domain response. Three types of windows are available: minimum, normal, and maximum. Gating The gating function can be used to selectively remove reflection or transmission time-domain responses. In converting back to the frequency-domain the effects of the responses outside the gate are removed. Remote programming Interface HP-IB interface operates to IEEE 488-1978 and IEC 625 standards and IEEE 728-1982 recommended prac- tices. Addressing The GP-IB address can be verified or set from the front panel via the local menu and can range from 0 to 30 decimal (factory set at 16). Pass control Allows the HP 8753ET/ES to request control of the GP-IB (when an active controller is present) whenever it needs to output to a plotter or printer . System controller Lets an HP 8753ET/ES become a controller on the GP-IB to directly control a plotter or a printer . T alker/listener Lets the HP 8753ET/ES become an GP-IB talker/listen- er when an external controller is present.

The test sets are controlled from the HP 8753ES Option 011 and include a programmable step attenua- tor . The frequency range of the HP 85046A 50-ohm test set is 300 kHz to 3 GHz. The HP 85046A has preci- sion 7-mm connectors. The frequency range of the HP 85046B 75-ohm test set is 300 kHz to 2 GHz. The HP 85046B has 75-ohm type-N(f) connectors.

Dimensions 90 mm H x 432 mm W x 553 mm D W eight 9.1 kg (20 lb) A standard HP 85046A/B test set contains a solid-state transfer switch, which allows continuous switching of power from port 1 to port 2 for full two-port error cor- rection. Option 009 replaces the transfer switch with a mechanical switch. This provides about 1.5 dB more power at the test port, but does not allow continuous switching, so the user must initiate updates of all four S-parameters for full two-port error correction. Also, the mechanical switch has relays that will wear out faster than the solid-state switch. Approximate lifetime of the mechanical switch is 1 million cycles. HP 85046A schematic 1.

This test set includes a frequency doubler that can be switched in by an HP 8753B/C Option 006 to measure 3 MHz to 6 GHz in a single sweep or switched out to measure 300 kHz to 3 GHz in a single sweep. The HP 8753ES Option 011 does not use the frequency doubler , so the full 300 kHz to 6 GHz range is available. This test set exhibits <5 dB insertion loss between the RF input and the test ports for as high as 15 dBm at the test port, and also includes a programmable step attenuator . There are two rear panel BNC outputs. One provides a TTL signal which indicates the result of a limit test. The second TTL output is controlled from the HP 8753ES test sequence function.

Option 009 replaces the transfer switch with a mechanical switch. This provides about 2.5 to 3.5 dB more power at the test port, but does not allow contin- uous switching, so the user must initiate updates of all four S-parameters for full two-port error correction. Also, the mechanical switch has relays that will wear out faster than the solid-state switch. Approximate lifetime of the mechanical switch is 1 million cycles. HP 85047A schematic 1.

3 Definitions and test conditions Specifications describe the instrument's warranted performance after a half-hour warm-up and over the temperature range of 25 ËC ± 5 ËC, unless otherwise stated. Specifications for frequencies above 3 GHz do not apply to instruments with Option 075 (75-ohm impedance). Supplemental characteristics are typical but non-war- ranted performance parameters. These are denoted as âtypical,â ânominal,â or âapproximate.â The measurement uncertainty curves and measure- ment port characteristics given for HP 8753ES systems also apply to the HP 8753ES with Options 006 and 011 and the HP 85047A test set (50-ohm), or the HP 8753ES Option 011 with an HP 85046B test set (75-ohm). Dynamic range System dynamic range is calculated as the difference between the receiver noise floor and the lesser of either the source maximum output or the receiver maximum input level. System dynamic range applies to transmission measurements only , since reflection mea- surements are limited by directivity . Noise floor is specified as the mean of the noise trace over frequency . Noise floor is measured with the test ports terminated in loads, full two-port error correc- tion for the HP 8753ES and enhanced-response error correction for the HP 8753ET (with 16 averages used during isolation), 10 Hz IF bandwidth (BW), maximum test port power , and no averaging during the measure- ment. Measurement uncertainty Measurement uncertainty curves utilize a Root Sum Square (RSS) model for the contribution of random errors such as noise, typical connector repeatabilities, and test set switching; this is combined with a worst- case model for the contributions of dynamic accuracy and residual systematic errors. Curves show the worst-case magnitude and phase uncertainty for reflection and transmission measure- ments, after a full two-port error correction for the HP 8753ES and enhanced-response error correction for the HP 8753ET (including isolation with an averag- ing factor of 16) using the specified cal kit, with 10 Hz IF bandwidth (BW) and no averaging. Measurement port characteristics Characteristics show the residual system uncertainties for uncorrected performance and after accuracy enhancement using full two-port error correction for the HP 8753ES and enhanced-response error correc- tion for the HP 8753ET . These characteristics apply for an environmental temperature of 25 ± 5 ËC, with less than 1 ËC deviation from the calibration tempera- ture. HP 8753ET Option 004 may degrade transmission source match as much as 2 dB, resulting in up to 0.05 dB additional uncertainty in transmission tracking. Corrected performance indicates residual error after calibration. It is determined by the quality of calibra- tion standards, system repeatability , stability , and noise. Uncorrected performance indicates intrinsic errors without calibration correction applied. This is related to the ultimate stability of a calibration.

Conversion to impedance or admittance. HP 8753ES: S11, S21, S12, S22, A, B, R, A/R, B/R, A/B. Conversion to impedance or admittance. Formats Cartesian: log/linear magnitude, phase, group delay , SWR, real and imaginary . Smith chart: with log/linear amplitude and phase, R jX, G jB, or real/imaginary markers. Polar: with linear/log amplitude, phase, or real and imaginary markers. Data markers Each display channel has five independent markers that can be displayed simultaneously . T wenty indepen- dent markers can be displayed in 4-channel display mode when markers are uncoupled. Marker functions Markers can be used in various functions: Marker search (Mkr to max, Mkr to min, Mkr to target), Mkr bandwidth with user -defined target values, Mkr to start, Mkr to stop, Mkr to center , Mkr to span, Mkr to reference, Mkr to delay , and trace statistics (average value, standard deviation, and peak-to-peak deviation of the data trace between two markers). The tracking function enables continuous update of marker search values on each sweep. Group delay characteristics Aperture: selectable Maximum aperture: 20% of frequency span Minimum aperture: (freq. span) / (number of points 1) Range The maximum delay is limited to measuring no more than 180Ë of phase change within the minimum aper- ture. Range = 1 / (2 x minimum aperture) Accuracy The following graph shows group-delay accuracy at 1.3 GHz with type-N full two-port calibration and 10-Hz IF bandwidth. Insertion loss is assumed to be < 2 dB and electrical length to be ten meters. Source control Sweep limits Set start/stop or center/span of the stimulus parameter (frequency , power , time) directly through the source control keys and the control knob, the step keys or the data entry keyboard. Sweep type Set a linear or logarithmic sweep, an arbitrarily defined frequency list, a power sweep or a CW (single frequen- cy) type of sweep. Measured number of points per sweep Linear frequency: choose 3, 11, 26, 51, 101, 201, 401, 801, or 1601 points. Fast swept list Define up to 30 different sub-sweep frequency ranges in any combination of CW , center/span, or start-stop sweep modes. Set test-port power levels and IF band- width independently for each segment. Sweep modes Set a coupled channel sweep (same stimulus condi- tions on both channels) or an uncoupled channel sweep. Chop/alternate Select whether to alternately or simultaneously (chop) measure channels when in dual-channel mode. Chop mode is faster , while alternate mode optimizes dynam- ic range. Sweep time Set sweep time in seconds, minutes or hours. Automatic sweep time Select auto sweep time by entering zero seconds sweep time. The analyzer will sweep at the minimum sweep time for any subsequently selected stimulus conditions. Auto sweep time is the default condition.
17 HP 8753ET/ES supplemental characteristics (continued) Sweep trigger Set to either continuous, single, group sweep, or exter- nal trigger . Set external trigger to take a complete sweep or to measure individual points in a frequency , power or list sweep. Power Set source power from -20 to 5 dBm for the HP 8753ET 1 or from -85 to 10 dBm for the HP 8753ES 2 . Power slope can be set in dBm/GHz. Power meter calibration Select continuous leveling or use a correction table to modify source power . The correction table is created with an initial single sweep. Make single or multiple power meter readings at each frequency . Data accuracy enhancement Measurement calibration Measurement calibration significantly reduces mea- surement uncertainty due to errors caused by system directivity , source and load match, tracking, and crosstalk. Full two-port calibration removes all the sys- tematic errors to obtain the most accurate measure- ments. Calibration types available ⢠Frequency response Simultaneous magnitude and phase correction of fre- quency response errors for either reflection or trans- mission measurements. ⢠Response and isolation Compensates for frequency response and directivity (reflection) or frequency response and crosstalk errors. ⢠Enhanced response calibration Corrects for frequency response and source match for transmission measurements, and provides one-port calibration for reflection measurements. ⢠One-port calibration Uses test set port 1 or port 2 to correct for directivity , frequency response and source match errors. ⢠T wo-port calibration Compensates for directivity , source match, reflection frequency response, load match, transmission frequen- cy response and crosstalk for an S-parameter test set. Crosstalk calibration can be omitted. A vailable on HP 8753ES analyzers. ⢠TRL*/LRM* calibration Compensates for directivity , reflection and transmis- sion frequency response, and crosstalk in both the for- ward and reverse directions. Especially suitable for calibrating non-coaxial environments, such as in test fixtures. TRL*/LRM* is a special implementation of TRL/LRM calibration, modified for the three-sampler receiver in the HP 8753ES. A vailable on HP 8753ES analyzers. Interpolated error correction W ith any type of accuracy enhancement applied, inter- polated mode recalculates the error coefficients when the test frequencies are changed. The number of points can be increased or decreased and the start/stop frequencies can be changed, but the result- ing frequency span must be a subset of the original cal- ibration frequency span. System performance is not specified for measurements with interpolated error correction applied. V elocity factor Enters the velocity factor to calculate equivalent elec- trical length. Reference plane extension Redefine the plane-of-measurement reference to other than port 1 or port 2 of the HP 8753ET and 8753ES. Select default calibration kit Select from a list of standard calibration kits or choose a user -defined kit. Data averaging IF bandwidth: The IF bandwidth is selectable from 6 kHz to 10 Hz W eighted sweep-to-sweep averaging: A verages vector data on each successive sweep. T race smoothing Computes the moving average of adjacent data points. Smoothing aperture defines the trace width (number of points) to be averaged, and ranges from 0.25% to 20% of the trace width. Display control Display formats Single-channel, dual-channel overlay (both traces on one graticule), dual-channel split (each trace on sepa- rate graticules), three-channel split (each trace on separate graticules), three-channel overlay (three traces on one graticule), quad-channel overlay (four traces on one graticule), quad-channel split (each trace on separate graticules). 1. -85 to 5 dBm with Option 004. 2. 8 dBm maximum with Option 075 or 014.

Default colors can be recalled along with one set of user -defined display values. Storage Instrument state Up to 31 instrument states can be stored internally or recalled via the SA VE/RECALL menu. Instrument states include all control settings, active limit lines, active list frequency tables, memory trace data, active calibration coefficients, and custom display titles. Storage is in nonvolatile memory . T est sequences Six measurement sequences can be stored or recalled via the sequencing menu. Sequences may also be recalled from Preset menu. Sequence register 6 is part of nonvolatile storage and is not erased during a power cycle. If sequence 6 is titled AUTO, it will be executed when power is turned on. Disk drive Data, instrument states, user graphics, data plots and test sequences can be stored on internal floppy disk in MS-DOS ® or Hewlett-Packard's standard LIF formats. Data hardcopy Data plotting Hardcopy plots are automatically produced with HP- GL compatible digital plotters. The HP 8753ET/ES pro- vides Centronics, RS-232C, and GP-IB interfaces. Data listings Printouts of instrument data are directly produced with a printer such as the HP DeskJet or LaserJet. Select black & white or color print. For a list of compatible printers, consult our printer -compatibility guide W eb page at http://www .hp.com/go/pcg Configure plots Configure plots completely from the network analyzer by defining pen color and line type for data, text mark- ers, graticules, and memory traces. Functions Plot trace(s), graticule(s), marker(s), or text including operating and system parameters. Quadrants Plot entire display in one of four different quadrants of the plotter paper . System capabilities Limit lines Define test limit lines that appear on the display for go/no go testing. Lines may be any combination of hor- izontal, sloping lines, or discrete data points. Limit-test TTL output available for external control or indication. External source mode The receiver (input R) detects and phase-locks to any externally generated CW signal. Receiver inputs A and B will measure this same frequency for comparison or tracking measurements. Automatic The input signal frequency is counted and displayed. Manual Measures the input signal closest to the frequency specified by the user (within 0.5 to 5 MHz). T uned receiver T unes the receiver for a synthesized CW input signal at a precisely specified frequency . The time bases of the external RF source or sources must be tied to the external reference input (rear panel BNC). The built- in RF source is not used.

Service menu Select the desired service test, service diagnostic, ser- vice or verification mode. T est sequences Description Create, edit, save or recall a series of front-panel key- strokes to automate a measurement. T est sequences may contain basic stimulus and measurement func- tions (frequency , power , parameter , format, scale) advanced operations (time domain, limit testing, dis- play marker values) and basic logical branching (IF limit test fails DO sequence 5 or GOSUB). Storage T est sequences can be stored internally to a disk drive and can be loaded from a computer over the GP-IB interface. Sequence 6 is saved in nonvolatile storage and can be used as an autostart routine when titled AUTO. General purpose input/output Read or write bits to the output port to control exter- nal devices such as part handlers. Eight output and five input TTL lines are available on the parallel port. Other functions P AUSE/continue, wait, title sequence, print sequence, duplicate sequence, pause and select. T ime-domain (Option 010) W ith the time-domain option, data from transmission or reflection measurements in the frequency domain are converted to the time domain using a Fourier transformation technique (chirp Z) and presented on the display . The time-domain response shows the mea- sured parameter value versus time. Markers may also be displayed in electrical length (or physical length if the relative propagation velocity is entered). T ime stimulus modes T wo types of time excitation stimulus waveforms can be simulated during the transformations, a step and an impulse. ⢠Low-pass step This stimulus, similar to a traditional time-domain reflec- tometer (TDR) stimulus waveform, is used to measure low-pass devices. The frequency-domain data should extend from DC (extrapolated value) to a higher value. ⢠Low-pass impulse This stimulus is also used to measure low-pass devices. ⢠Bandpass impulse The bandpass impulse stimulates a pulsed RF signal (with an impulse envelope) and is used to measure the time-domain response of band-limited devices. W indows The windowing function can be used to modify (filter) the frequency-domain data and thereby reduce over- shoot and ringing in the time-domain response. Three types of windows are available: minimum, normal, and maximum. Gating The gating function can be used to selectively remove reflection or transmission time-domain responses. In converting back to the frequency-domain the effects of the responses outside the gate are removed. Remote programming Interface HP-IB interface operates to IEEE 488-1978 and IEC 625 standards and IEEE 728-1982 recommended prac- tices. Addressing The GP-IB address can be verified or set from the front panel via the local menu and can range from 0 to 30 decimal (factory set at 16). Pass control Allows the HP 8753ET/ES to request control of the GP-IB (when an active controller is present) whenever it needs to output to a plotter or printer . System controller Lets an HP 8753ET/ES become a controller on the GP-IB to directly control a plotter or a printer . T alker/listener Lets the HP 8753ET/ES become an GP-IB talker/listen- er when an external controller is present.

The test sets are controlled from the HP 8753ES Option 011 and include a programmable step attenua- tor . The frequency range of the HP 85046A 50-ohm test set is 300 kHz to 3 GHz. The HP 85046A has preci- sion 7-mm connectors. The frequency range of the HP 85046B 75-ohm test set is 300 kHz to 2 GHz. The HP 85046B has 75-ohm type-N(f) connectors. Both connectors can be adapted to other interfaces with the appropriate precision adapters.

Dimensions 90 mm H x 432 mm W x 553 mm D W eight 9.1 kg (20 lb) A standard HP 85046A/B test set contains a solid-state transfer switch, which allows continuous switching of power from port 1 to port 2 for full two-port error cor- rection. Option 009 replaces the transfer switch with a mechanical switch. This provides about 1.5 dB more power at the test port, but does not allow continuous switching, so the user must initiate updates of all four S-parameters for full two-port error correction. Also, the mechanical switch has relays that will wear out faster than the solid-state switch. Approximate lifetime of the mechanical switch is 1 million cycles. HP 85046A schematic 1.

This test set includes a frequency doubler that can be switched in by an HP 8753B/C Option 006 to measure 3 MHz to 6 GHz in a single sweep or switched out to measure 300 kHz to 3 GHz in a single sweep. The HP 8753ES Option 011 does not use the frequency doubler , so the full 300 kHz to 6 GHz range is available. This test set exhibits <5 dB insertion loss between the RF input and the test ports for as high as 15 dBm at the test port, and also includes a programmable step attenuator . There are two rear panel BNC outputs. One provides a TTL signal which indicates the result of a limit test. The second TTL output is controlled from the HP 8753ES test sequence function.
