Content is AI-generated. Verify critical details with manufacturer-provided resources.
The Keysight N5244B PNA-X operates from 10 MHz up to 43.5 GHz. This wide frequency span covers RF through millimeter-wave frequencies, making it ideal for characterizing broadband amplifiers, filters, mixers, and high-frequency communication components.
Option 423 is the most comprehensive 4-port configuration, including twelve front-panel access loops, extended power range with source and receiver attenuators, an internal second source, a combiner, mechanical switches, and bias tees on all ports. This enables advanced nonlinear measurements, mixer characterization, multi-tone testing, gain compression analysis, and intermodulation distortion measurements with complete DC biasing capability through the RF ports.
The N5244B uses 2.4 mm male connectors on all test ports, which are precision connectors rated up to 50 GHz. These provide excellent electrical performance with low VSWR and high repeatability for millimeter-wave measurements. The 2.4 mm interface is the preferred connector type for frequencies above 26.5 GHz and is compatible with industry-standard calibration kits.
System dynamic range varies by frequency. From 500 MHz to 3.2 GHz, the specification is 124 to 127 dB depending on port configuration, with typical performance reaching 130 to 135 dB. From 3.2 to 20 GHz, dynamic range specification is 127 dB on most ports. At higher frequencies from 20 to 40 GHz, it ranges from 115 to 124 dB, and from 40 to 43.5 GHz it is approximately 102 to 114 dB.
Yes, the N5244B Option 423 is fully compatible with Option 029, which adds a dedicated low-noise receiver for high-accuracy noise figure measurements. When combined, they enable noise figure characterization of amplifiers up to 43.5 GHz and frequency-converting devices like mixers. Option 029 provides receiver bandwidth settings and supports both cold source and Y-factor measurement techniques.
The N5244B PNA-X includes four measurement receivers (A, B, C, D) as standard, providing simultaneous multi-port measurements for fast 4-port S-parameter characterization. When Option 029 is added, it includes an additional dedicated noise receiver with specialized low-noise hardware optimized for noise figure measurements. The front-panel access loops allow flexible routing of signals to different receivers for custom measurement setups.
Maximum leveled power varies by frequency and port. From 500 MHz to 20 GHz, typical output is 10 to 13 dBm depending on the port. From 20 to 40 GHz, power is approximately 7 to 12 dBm. At the highest frequencies from 40 to 43.5 GHz, maximum leveled power is around 3 to 7 dBm. The combine mode feature can increase output power by combining both internal sources.
Yes, the N5244B can be configured with pulse modulator options. Option 021 adds a pulse modulator to the first source, and Option 022 adds a pulse modulator to the second source. These options enable pulsed S-parameter measurements, pulsed power measurements, and characterization of devices under pulsed operating conditions, which is critical for radar and pulsed communication system applications.
