Keysight Technologies E5080B Spec Sheet
Content is AI-generated. Verify critical details with manufacturer-provided resources.
What is the Keysight E5080B ENA-X 2-Port 9 GHz Vector Network Analyzer?
The Keysight E5080B with Option 290 is a 2-port ENA Series vector network analyzer covering 9 kHz to 9 GHz. It is part of the E5080B family that brings R&D-level performance with best-in-class dynamic range, trace noise, and temperature stability to a midrange platform, using the same UI and SCPI commands as high-end PNAs.
What is the frequency range and dynamic range of the E5080B Option 290?
The E5080B Option 290 covers 9 kHz to 9 GHz with 1 Hz frequency resolution. It achieves a specified system dynamic range of up to 140 dB from 50 MHz to 5 GHz (at 10 Hz IF bandwidth without bias tee options), with typical dynamic range reaching 150 dB from 50 MHz to 3 GHz. At 6.5 to 9 GHz, specified dynamic range is 136 dB.
What output power does the E5080B Option 290 provide?
The E5080B Option 290 provides a maximum specified output power of +10 dBm from 10 MHz to 4.5 GHz and +9 dBm from 6.5 to 9 GHz (without bias tee options). Typical maximum output reaches +13 dBm from 10 MHz to 4.5 GHz. Power sweep range is typically -60 dBm to +12 dBm from 6 GHz to 9 GHz.
What devices can the E5080B 2-port 9 GHz configuration test?
The E5080B enables complete characterization of passive components, amplifiers, mixers, and frequency converters up to 9 GHz. Integrated features include DC sources, bias tees (Option 120 or 140), pulse generators, and pulse modulators. Software applications for spectrum analysis, mixer measurements, and noise figure are also available.
What is the trace noise performance of the E5080B?
The E5080B achieves specified trace noise magnitude of 0.0015 dB rms from 100 kHz to 6 GHz and 0.002 dB rms from 6 to 10 GHz (without bias tees). Typical values are 0.0005 dB rms and 0.0006 dB rms respectively. Phase trace noise is typically 0.003 degrees rms from 300 kHz to 6 GHz, ensuring highly precise and repeatable measurements.
What calibration options are available for the E5080B 2-port 9 GHz?
The E5080B supports the 85032F standard mechanical calibration kit (corrected directivity up to 49 dB below 50 MHz, 40 dB from 3 to 6 GHz, and 38 dB from 6 to 9 GHz), the 85052D economy mechanical kit, and the N4691D electronic calibration module. Keysight's free Uncertainty Calculator can generate curves for additional calibration kit and setup combinations.
How does the E5080B 2-port 9 GHz compare to the 4-port 20 GHz model?
The E5080B Option 290 (2-port, 9 GHz) offers the same core dynamic range and trace noise performance as the 4-port 20 GHz model within its operating range, but at a lower cost point. It is ideal for applications that only require two test ports and frequencies up to 9 GHz, such as testing filters, connectors, cables, and amplifiers in the sub-9 GHz band.
Why should I consider renting the E5080B 2-port 9 GHz?
Renting the E5080B Option 290 is cost-effective for short-term projects requiring precise 2-port VNA measurements up to 9 GHz. With up to 150 dB typical dynamic range, temperature stability of 0.005 dB/degree C from 300 kHz to 4.5 GHz, and compatibility with the same SCPI commands as Keysight PNA analyzers, it delivers reliable results that integrate seamlessly into existing test workflows.
