Measurement Application Software

Solid black series name indicates the feature is available on that series, while gray series name with

strikethrough indicates the feature ins not available on that series. For example:

P500xA Series: Available on P500xA series

P937xA Series:Not available on P937xA Series

Automatic fixture removal (S97007A)

P937xA Series P500xA Series

Many devices do not have coaxial connectors and are put in fixtures in order to measure them in a

coaxial environment. Accurately removing the effects of the fixture is required to get a good measurement

of the device under test (DUT). This application adds a powerful application wizard to guide you through

characterizing a fixture and removing it from the measurement. Devices can be single-ended or

differential. Files can be saved in a variety of formats for later use in ENA, PNA, PXI VNA, USB VNA,

ADS, and PLTS.

Time domain analysis (S97010A)

P937xA Series P500xA Series

This application enables the analyzer to view reflection and transmission responses in time or distance.

Use time domain to tune filters, gate out the response of fixtures and cables, characterize the impedance

of transmission lines and more.

Basic Pulsed-RF measurements (S97025A)

P937xA Series P500xA Series

This application enables internal pulse generators that can be used to control the internal pulse

modulators, and it provides an integrated pulse application that uses the wideband-detection method. The

software requires hardware option 021 pulse modulator hardware.

The pulse application provides an easy way to set up point-in-pulse measurements with pulse width as

narrow as 1 us, and pulse-profile measurements with 40 ns minimum timing resolution. Using the built-in

pulse modulators, the USB VNAs are complete pulsed-RF measurement solutions, eliminating the need

for external test sets and pulse generators. S97025A also controls external pulse generators and

modulators and can synchronize to external master pulses. The Y1731A PXI Adapter Module is

recommended if using external master pulses or external pulse modulators.

Noise figure measurements with vector correction (S97029A)

P937xA Series P500xA Series

This software application enables high-accuracy noise figure and noise-power measurements of

amplifiers utilizing Keysight’s unique vector-source-correction technique that uses a source-impedance

tuner to remove the effects of imperfect system-source match. This approach yields accuracy that

surpasses that provided by the Y-factor method and other cold-source implementations, especially for in-

fixture, on-wafer, and automated-test environments. A scalar-calibrated method is also available that

offers less accuracy but is faster and does not require an impedance tuner.

The instrument’s standard receivers are used for noise figure measurements with the S97029A. An

external preamplifier and filter(s) is required for devices with < 30 dB of excess noise (gain plus noise

figure in dB). S97029A controls Keysight N469x Series1ECal modules configured as impedance tuners

for use with the USB VNA.

For calibration, a standard mechanical cal kit or ECal module is required for the S-parameter portion of

the cal (an ECal used as a tuner cannot be shared for calibration). To calibrate a standard receiver for

noise figure measurements, a power meter is required. All calibration accessories must be ordered

separately.

Scalar mixer/converter measurements (S97082A)

P937xA Series P500xA Series

With a simple setup and calibration, this application delivers the highest accuracy for scalar conversion-

loss/gain measurements by combining one-port and power-meter calibrations to remove mismatch errors.

S97082A provides an intuitive and easy-to-use user interface for setting up mixer and converter

measurements, with single or dual conversion stages. It can control external signal generators for use as

LO signals. Supported external sources include the Keysight ESG, PSG, EXG, and MXG Series, as well

as other SCPI-controlled signal generators.

S97082A is compatible with S97084A, which enables measurements of converters with internal LOs.

Embedded LO capability (S97084A)

P937xA Series P500xA Series

This application tunes the analyzer’s receivers to the output frequency of the converter under test without

the need for access to internal LOs or a common reference signal. S97084A is intended to work with

S97082A measurement applications.

1. 8509x, N443x or N755xA Series ECal modules are not supported.

Find us at www.keysight.com Page 9

Gain compression measurements (S97086A)

P937xA Series P500xA Series

The gain compression application (GCA) provides input power, output power, gain, and phase at the

compression point of an amplifier over a specified frequency range. GCA’s SMART Sweep is very fast

and easy-to-use. GCA also includes a guided calibration that corrects for absolute power levels,

frequency response, and mismatch errors.

Spectrum analysis (S97090A)

P937xA Series P500xA Series

The spectrum analyzer (SA) application adds high-performance microwave spectrum analysis to USB

VNAs. With fast stepped-FFT sweeps resulting from optimized data processing, the SA application

provides quick spurious searches over broad frequency ranges. Simultaneous spectrum measurements

can be done using test and reference receivers. This multi-channel SA can be used with the internal

swept-signal generators for efficient measurements of spurious signals emanating from mixers and

frequency converters. The SA application employs source-power and receiver-response calibration as

well as fixture de-embedding, providing in-fixture and on-wafer spectrum measurements with the highest

level of accuracy. Optional external attenuators should be connected with the VNA’s test ports to avoid

receiver compression when measuring large signals.

The S97090A software requires option 090 spectrum analysis hardware.

Multiport calibrated measurements (S97551A)

P937xA Series P500xA Series

Keysight USB VNA offers a capability to extend the number of ports for your measurements by using up

to two instruments. When multiple instruments are used, they are configured for multiport operation. The

instruments may be identified by the firmware as one VNA by an external PC. At least one VNA

instrument connected to your PC must have one S97551A license to maintain N-port capabilities with

multiple instruments. The frequency of the multiport array is determined by the lowest frequency

instrument configured in the array. For example, a 4-port analyzer configuration using a P5000A (4.5

GHz) and a P5004A (20 GHz) would have a maximum frequency of 4.5 GHz when performing 4-port

measurements. This behavior extends to other measurement application software (S97xxxA). In a

multiport configuration, only one instrument must have a valid license for these capabilities to function in

multiport mode.

Each instrument is connected into the array with Keysight cables. A Y1701A Multiple USB instruments

configuration kit should be ordered for connection of two P937xA (with Y1701A-001) or two P500xA

instruments (with Y1701A-002). A single Y1281A accessory and tool kit should be ordered for easier

cable connections.

The P937xA and P500xA can not be combined to configure multiport VNAs due to hardware difference.

Material measurements

P937xA Series P500xA Series

The Keysight N1500A materials measurement suite streamlines the process of measuring complex

permittivity and permeability with a vector network analyzer. Various type of measurements, such as

transmission line and free space, arch reflectivity, resonant cavity, and coaxial probe are available as

options. The easy-to-use software guides the user through setup and measurement, instantly converting

S-parameter network analyzer data into the data format of your choice and displaying the results within

seconds. Results can be charted in a variety of formats: εr’, εr”, tand, μr’, μr”, tandμ, and Cole-Cole.

N1930B Physical Layer Test System (PLTS) Software

P937xA Series P500xA Series

The PLTS software platform has become an industry standard for calibration, measurement, and analysis

of linear passive interconnects such as cables, connectors, backplanes, and printed circuit boards.

Utilizing either a vector network analyzer (VNA) or a time domain reflectometer (TDR), fast and accurate

measurements can be obtained without in-depth knowledge of microwave measurement techniques.
