Used AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT N5230C #170214 for sale

AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT N5230C is an evolutionary 2-port network analyzer within the PNA family that offers advanced measurements with improved performance. This extended bandwidth and higher power RF network analyzer includes many features such as active auto-tune and fast scan measurements, making it ideal for measurement of on- and off-wafer device characterization and antenna tuning applications. HP N5230C offers a 3-MHz to 20-GHz frequency range across both ports, and has high dynamic performance, making it well suited for high-accuracy S-parameter measurements and microwave radio communications applications. It also features an enhanced direct digital synthesis (DDS) signal source that provides up to 10-MHz/sec scan speeds, as well as an optimized high stability frequency reference—the 1-ppm reference oscillator. Additionally, an upgradable system memory allows for more efficient application sequencing and reduced measurement time. AGILENT N5230C can be used to measure the optimum return loss, gain, and noise figure, as well as examine path dynamics, spectral response, and phase noise via the included software. The RF attenuators can be programmed with up to 48 dB of dynamic range, allowing for flexible signal levels that support both connect and disconnect calibration methods,while the receiver has >50 dB of dynamic range enabling measurement of small and large signal responses, such as noise figure, on a single measurement. HEWLETT-PACKARD N5230C also boasts a bright 5.7" color touch screen display with a simple to use graphical user interface (GUI) and easy system control, plus it supports LAN, USB, and GPIB communications for efficient test automation. This latest version of PNA-L also offers 1- and 2-port magnitude, phase, group delay, Smith chart, log magnitude, phase margin, and 3-D views, along with optional noise figure, gain compression, and error corrected S-parameter measurements. Overall, KEYSIGHT N5230C is an advanced 2-port network analyzer that provides extended frequency, higher power RF and enhanced direct digital synthesis capabilities. Its robust performance, upgradable system memory, easy control and intuitive GUI, and connectivity options make this instrument the perfect choice for a wide variety of device characterization and antenna tuning needs.
