Outline
  • What is measurement?
  • What is 85108 Pulsed Network Analyzer?
  • What are the Connectors Cables?
  • What are the Calibration Kits?
  • What is Non-Insertable Calibration?
  • How to do Pulsed Measurement?
  • How to Control by Computer?

3
What is measurement
  • Define Measurement
  • f, P, T, expected values and tolerance.
  • Define System Configuration
  • Configure Hardware
  • User setting, Gauging, Always use ESD Protection
  • Check Hardware DUT, Cables, Connectors
  • Calibrate
  • Verify
  • Measure
  • Analyze and Archive

LO source 10M-20 G RF source 10M-50 G Test Set
1-50 GHz
Test Set works from 1-50 GHz in 2 Bands 1-20 GHz
Use directly LO source. 6-50 GHz Use third
harmonic of LO source.

Pulse Meas.- Freq Domain
  • Point-in-Pulse
  • Freq Domain Meas.
  • Use 1.5M Broadband IF filter (Normal meas. use
    10K IF filter)
  • Adjustable Duty Cycle
  • Default 10
  • Adjustable Pulse Width
  • Default 10 ms, min 1us
  • Trigger time 5ms from 0

12
Pulse Meas.-Time Domain
  • Display Time Domain Pulse Profile
  • Choose Pulse Profile in Domain menu
  • Measure only at a single frequency

15
Cables for NA
  • Cables (only following cables can be used for
    NA)
  • Semi-Rigid with K connectors
  • FlexibleThin Jacket with K connectors (Blue,
    from Gore)
  • FlexibleThick Jacket with 2.4 mm connectors
    (Black, from Agilent)
  • Connectors on Port 1 2 is 2.4 mm
  • 2.4 to 2.9 (K) adaptors are put to mate with K
    connector cables, Never Remove Them
  • Always Keep Connects Adaptors Clean
  • Treat Them Gentle and Put Back to Box

16
Cautions
  • Select Correct Cal Kit and Load Calibration
    Constants before Calibration
  • Never Remove a Calibration Standard from the Box
    or Use for Any Purpose Other Than Calibration
  • Never Drop the Standards to Ground
  • Always Use Special Wrench Correctly
  • Put the Cal Kits Back to Cabinet after Use
  • Report Any Discrepancy

17
Load Configuration Disk
  • Load the Test Set Configuration Disk for 85110A
    with H60/61 option
  • (Disks are stored in Drawers, never remove
    them)
  • Disk-gtStorage is Internal
  • Load-gtMore-gtMachine Dump
  • MD_1_20_NP, 1-20 GHz, Non-Pulsed
  • MD_1_20_PL, 1-20 GHz, Pulsed
  • MD_6_50_NP, 6-50 GHz, Non-Pulsed
  • MD_6_50_NP, 6-50 GHz, Pulsed

18
Calibration Procedure
  • Press Cal menu
  • Choose Calibration Kit, if not installed in
    equipment, load the cal constant from disk
  • Choose in the Calibration Menu
  • LRM for on-wafer Calibration, Full 2-port for
    cable calibration
  • Follow instruction, connect standards and
    measure
  • Save calibration data
  • You will see Correction On

21
Swap Equal Adaptors
Swap Equal Between-Series Adaptors
Swap Equal In-Family Adaptors
22
Adaptor Removal
  • Calibration with adaptor on Port 2, save as Cal
    Set 1
  • Calibration with adaptor on Port 1, save as Cal
    Set 1
  • Modify Cal Set-gtAdaptor Removal
  • Refer the additional document for more details
  • More calibration methods are included in that file

23
Calibration with On-Wafer Kit
  • Use WinCal on Controller-Dizzy
  • Calibration Constant is set in program
  • Choose LRM, since short is not good
  • LRRM is recommended for more accuracy

24
How to do Pulsed Meas.(1)
  • Frequency Domain (Point-in-Pulse)
  • Domain-gtFrequency
  • System-gtMore-gtPulse Config-gtDetector
  • Wide BW
  • Select Maximum Points
  • Calibration
  • System-gtMore-gt Pulse Config-gt High or Low
  • Set Pulse Width, Duty Cycle
  • Stimulus-gtMore-gtTrigger Mode-gtTrigger Delay
  • Measure

25
How to do Pulsed Meas.(2)
  • Pulse Profile Domain - Single Frequency
  • Domain-gtFrequency
  • Stimulus-gtStep mode Start-gtSet desired
    frequency
  • Domain-gtPulse Profile
  • Select Maximum Points
  • Calibration
  • Measure
  • Repeat for Next Frequency

26
How to do Pulsed Meas.(3)
  • Pulse Profile Domain Frequency List
  • Cal-gtCorrection off
  • Domain-gtFrequency
  • System-gtMore-gtPulse Config-gtDetector Wide BW
  • Stimulus-gtMore-gtEdit List
  • Add-gtStart-gt3 G/n, Number of Points-gt51x1-gtDone
  • Add-gtStart-gt4 G/n x1-gtDone
  • Add-gtStart-gt5 G/n x1-gtDone
  • Done Frequency List, and Proceed with Calibration

27
How to do Pulsed Meas.(4)
  • Using Frequency List Continue
  • When begin to Measure
  • Domain-gt Pulse Profile
  • Stimulus-gtFrequency List-gtSingle Segement
  • The last selected segment will be active and
    ready for measurement
  • Calibration will be effective for each frequency
    point
  • Set Pulse Polarity, Pulse Width and Duty cycle
    if needed

28
Computer Control
  • 2 GPIB Connectors are on the back of 8510C
  • 1 for 85108 System bus (dont touch)
  • 1 for computer controller (already connected)
  • Dizzy is the controller
  • Use WinCal for On-Wafer Calibration and
    S-Parameter Measurement
  • Choose the correct VNA first
  • Config-gtOption-gtVNA-gt8510 or 8722
  • Use Labview Program for 85108 configuration
