The Keysight N5224B is a 2-port PNA microwave network analyzer covering 900 Hz to 43.5 GHz in its base configuration with Option 200. The PNA is an integrated vector network analyzer with a built-in S-parameter test set, one synthesized source, a solid-state drive, USB interfaces, and a 12.1-inch LCD touch screen display. It features 50 ohm, ruggedized 2.4 mm male test port connectors.
The N5224B with Option 200 (base 2-port configuration) achieves a typical system dynamic range of up to 142 dB at the 3.2 to 10 GHz band (Ports 1, 2) at 10 Hz IF bandwidth. The extended dynamic range at the direct receiver access input reaches up to 157 dB typically in the 3.2 to 10 GHz band. Consult the N5224B data sheet for receiver dynamic range specifications across the full 43.5 GHz frequency range.
Option 200 is the base 2-port configuration with a standard test set and no front-panel access loops. Higher options add additional features: Option 201 adds front-panel jumpers and an R1 receiver switch, Option 217 adds source and receiver attenuators for extended power range, and Option 219 further adds bias tees. The base model provides cost-effective S-parameter measurement capability without the advanced signal routing options.
The N5224B PNA supports S-parameter measurements, time domain analysis (S93010B), automatic fixture removal (S93007B), scalar and vector mixer/converter measurements (S93082B/S93083B), gain compression (S93086B), noise figure measurements (S93029B), spectrum analysis up to 43.5 GHz (S930904B), and pulsed-RF measurements (S93025B/S93026B). It also supports frequency-offset measurements (S93080B) for testing mixers and frequency converters.
The N5224B covers 900 Hz to 43.5 GHz, while the N5225B extends the upper frequency to 50 GHz. Both models share the same 2.4 mm male test port connectors and belong to the PNA series. The N5224B is suitable for applications that do not require measurement coverage above 43.5 GHz, offering a more targeted frequency range for common microwave applications.
The N5224B PNA supports the 85056A mechanical calibration kit and the N4693A 2-port electronic calibration module, as well as the 85056D and N4693D calibration kits. Keysight offers a free Uncertainty Calculator to generate specification curves for specific calibration kit and PNA setup combinations. Calibration certification options include ISO 17025, ANSI Z540, and commercial calibration.
The N5224B PNA features a 12.1-inch LCD touch screen display, USB interfaces, a solid-state drive, and an integrated online help system in English. It comes with a mouse, keyboard (U.S. style), test port torque wrench, and one day of on-site productivity assistance. Optional IF inputs (Option 020) can be added for antenna measurements and millimeter-wave extender configurations.
The N5224B PNA in its base Option 200 configuration is ideal for standard S-parameter characterization of passive and active devices up to 43.5 GHz. It supports material measurements, signal integrity measurements, and multiport measurements when combined with external test sets. Renting this instrument is practical for short-term projects requiring high-performance microwave device characterization without the capital investment of purchase.
