The Keysight (formerly Agilent) E8357A vector network analyzer is a member of the PNA Series network analyzer platform and provides the combination of speed and precision for the demanding needs of today's component test requirements. The PNA Series meets this testing challenge by providing the right combination of fast sweep speeds, wide dynamic range, low trace noise and flexible connectivity.
The E8357A provides TRL/LRM calibration (four-receiver enabled) for in-fixture and on-wafer devices, standard bias-tees for active devices and standard direct receiver access for extended dynamic range.
Powerful automation and self-help tools make the instrument well suited for both R&D and manufacturing.
