  • Modern Architecture Advances Vector Network Analyzer Performance Vector Network Analyzers (Vnas) Are Based on the Use of Either Mixers Or Samplers
    White Paper Modern Architecture Advances Vector Network Analyzer Performance Vector Network Analyzers (VNAs) are based on the use of either mixers or samplers. In traditional sampling VNAs, samplers are gated by pulses generated with a Step-Recovery Diode (SRD) circuit, with the Local Oscillator (LO) and RF source phase locked to a common frequency reference. An alternative architecture is a VNA based on Nonlinear Transmission Line (NLTL) samplers and distributed harmonic generators. NLTL-based samplers configured to provide scalable operation characteristics now offer a more beneficial alternative. Not only do they allow for a simplified VNA architecture, but they also enable VNAs that are much more cost effective than those employing fundamental mixing. This paper provides an overview of the high-frequency technology deployed in Anritsu’s VNA families. It is shown that NLTL technology results in miniature VNA reflectometers that provide enhanced performance over broad frequency ranges, and reduced measurement complexity when compared with existing solutions. These capabilities, combined with the frequency-scalable nature of the reflectometers provide VNA users with a unique and compelling solution for their current and future high-frequency measurement needs. Limitations of Prior VNA Architectures VNAs make use of samplers, harmonic mixers, or combinations thereof to down-convert measurement signals to intermediate frequencies (IF) before digitizing them. Such down-conversion components play a critical role in VNAs because they set bounds on important parameters like conversion efficiency, receiver compression, isolation between measurement channels, and spurious generation at the ports of a device under test (DUT). Mixers tend to be the down converters of choice at RF frequencies, due mainly to their simpler local oscillator (LO) drive system and enhanced spur-management advantages.

  • Massachusetts Institute of Technology Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science
    Massachusetts Institute of Technology Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science 6.002 - Circuits and Electronics Fall 2004 Lab Equipment Handout (Handout F04-009) Prepared by Iahn Cajigas González (EECS '02) Updated by Ben Walker (EECS ’03) in September, 2003 This handout is intended to provide a brief technical overview of the lab instruments which we will be using in 6.002: the oscilloscope, multimeter, function generator, and the protoboard. It incorporates much of the material found in the individual instrument manuals, while including some background information as to how each of the instruments work. The goal of this handout is to serve as a reference of common lab procedures and terminology, while trying to build technical intuition about each instrument's functionality and familiarizing students with their use. Students with previous lab experience might find it helpful to simply skim over the handout and focus only on unfamiliar sections and terminology. THE OSCILLOSCOPE The oscilloscope is an electronic instrument based on the cathode ray tube (CRT) – not unlike the picture tube of a television set – which is capable of generating a graph of an input signal versus a second variable. In most applications the vertical (Y) axis represents voltage and the horizontal (X) axis represents time (although other configurations are possible). Essentially, the oscilloscope consists of four main parts: an electron gun, a time-base generator (that serves as a clock), two sets of deflection plates used to steer the electron beam, and a phosphorescent screen which lights up when struck by electrons. The electron gun, deflection plates, and the phosphorescent screen are all enclosed by a glass envelope which has been sealed and evacuated.
