Vector Network Analyzer

The tender should lead to one Agreement for the purchase of a Vector Network Analyzer at the University of Twente. • In our RF-lab we test our RF integrated circuit designs - fabricated in industry. • For this we use a Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) - among others. • Currently - we own a highly advanced 4 port 43.5GHz VNA. • This instrument is capable of measuring various parameters - such as Intermodulation Distortion (IMD) - Gain Compression and Noise Figure. • This machine replaces a setup that would take 3 or more high-end standalone instruments. • It also reduces special external cabling - switches - combiners and the associated signal power losses. • Our VNA goes beyond a standalone VNA. It offers an integrated and flexible...
