What is the Keysight N5245B PNA-X Network Analyzer?

The Keysight N5245B is a PNA-X network analyzer covering 900 Hz to 50 GHz (10 MHz to 50 GHz standard). It is an advanced multifunction network analyzer with 2-port and 4-port configurations, featuring 2.4 mm (male) test port connectors, a solid-state drive, USB interfaces, and a 12.1-inch LCD touch screen display.

What is the frequency range of the N5245B with Option 217?

The N5245B with Option 217 covers 10 MHz to 50 GHz as standard. Option 217 is a 2-port standard test set configuration that includes six front-panel access loops, power range control, and source and receiver attenuators for extended power range. The source attenuators are settable in 10 dB steps up to 60 dB, and receiver attenuators in 5 dB steps up to 35 dB.

What system dynamic range does the N5245B Option 217 provide?

The N5245B with Option 217 (or 21x options) provides a specified system dynamic range of up to 131 dB (at 1 GHz to 2 GHz, ports 2 and 4) at 10 Hz IF bandwidth. Typical dynamic range reaches up to 140 dB in the same frequency band. Even at the upper end of 47 to 50 GHz, the instrument achieves a typical dynamic range of 118 dB.

What measurements does the N5245B PNA-X support?

The N5245B PNA-X supports a comprehensive set of measurements including S-parameters, noise figure (with Option 029), gain compression, intermodulation distortion, pulsed-RF, mixer/converter characterization, and nonlinear vector network analysis. It supports application software for automatic fixture removal, time domain analysis, spectrum analysis, and differential/I/Q device measurements.

What calibration options are supported by the N5245B?

The N5245B supports calibration with the 85056A mechanical calibration kit and the N4693A electronic calibration module. With the 85056A kit, corrected directivity reaches 41 dB across most of the frequency range. Keysight's free Uncertainty Calculator is also available to generate curves for other calibration kits and measurement setups.

How does Option 217 differ from other N5245B configurations?

Option 217 adds source and receiver attenuators for extended power range on top of the base configurable test set with front-panel access loops. Unlike Option 219, it does not include bias-tees, and unlike Options 222 or 224, it does not include an internal second source, combiner, or mechanical switches. This makes Option 217 well suited for measurements requiring precise power control without the added complexity of dual-source setups.

What noise figure measurement capability does the N5245B offer?

The N5245B supports high-accuracy noise figure measurements with the optional low-noise receiver (Option 029) and S93029B application software. It can perform vector-noise-corrected measurements using an ECal module as an impedance tuner on earlier models, or an internal tuner on the N5245B with Option 029. Phase noise measurements up to 70 GHz are also available with S930317B software.

What are the benefits of renting the N5245B PNA-X?

Renting the N5245B PNA-X provides access to a premium multifunction network analyzer capable of replacing multiple instruments for characterizing passive components, amplifiers, mixers, and frequency converters up to 50 GHz. The extended power range of Option 217, with source attenuators up to 60 dB and receiver attenuators up to 35 dB, makes it particularly useful for high-power amplifier testing and precise gain compression measurements.
