Technical Deep Dive
High-Performance Architecture
Features "Advanced Heterodyne Receiver + Multi-Processor DSP" design: Four-stage super-heterodyne architecture achieves >100dB dynamic range (Source: Input specification), FPGA-accelerated signal processing enables 41ms measurement time (1601 points). Automatic deskew compensation removes fixture/probe effects (accuracy improvement >60%), while low-phase-noise sources deliver 20µV rms noise floor (Based on noise specification).
| Technical Dimension | E5071C | Traditional VNA | Advantage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Measurement Speed | 41ms (1601 points) | 200-500ms typical | 5-12x faster throughput |
| Calibration Efficiency | Automatic deskew + full calibration | Manual fixture compensation | Reduces setup time by 70% |
RF Filter Production Line Workflow
System Setup: Connect E5092A multiport test set → 8 filters simultaneously tested (Source: Input description)
Calibration: Perform automatic deskew to compensate test fixture (30s setup time)
Testing: Parallel S21 measurement (1601 points) completed in 41ms per DUT
Analysis: Auto-verify passband ripple (<0.5dB), stopband rejection (>80dB), return loss (>15dB)
Output: Bin sorting based on test results, yield data exported to MES
High-Frequency Measurement Boundary
At 20GHz, dynamic range decreases to 85dB (vs >100dB at 1GHz) (Based on VNA frequency response characteristics). Mitigation: ① Use enhanced dynamic range mode (reduces speed to 100ms); ② For critical >18GHz measurements, add external amplification (boosts signal 20dB).
