Anritsu Introduces 110 GHz Broadband Vector Network Analyzer System
for Improved Device Characterization
— Innovative Design of VectorStar™ ME7838E System Allows for Best-in-Class Performance
in On-wafer Applications —
Morgan Hill, CA – April 8, 2014 – Anritsu Company introduces the VectorStar™ ME7838E Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) broadband system that provides frequency coverage of 70 kHz to 110 GHz in a single connection. Incorporating all the benefits of the VectorStar ME7838 series broadband system, including compact millimeter (mm-wave) modules, best-in-class stability and dynamic range, and fastest measurement speeds, the ME7838E addresses the challenges associated with today’s high-speed device characterization. Hybrid VNA Architecture The innovative design also produces best-in-class performance, which is necessary for today’s high-speed on-wafer applications. Removing the need for a MUX combiner results in true directivity, helping achieve improved measurement stability of 0.1 dB over 24 hours. This also reduces the number of necessary calibrations for increased throughput and productivity as well as lowers cost-of-test. Excellent dynamic range of 109 dB at 110 GHz is achieved with the VectorStar ME7838E without the need for large amplification due to the integration of Non-Linear Transmission Line (NLTL) harmonic samplers. Incorporating NLTL technology offers a higher comb frequency with less drop-off at higher frequencies. Compact mm-wave Modules |
