Product overview

The R&S®ZNB3000 vector network analyzer is built for maximum throughput in high-volume RF component production, covering 9 kHz to 54 GHz. DDS synthesizer technology gives ultrafast measurement cycles, and RF performance and long-term stability let a production line run for days without recalibration. Flexible frequency upgrades let the instrument grow with what the line has to test, and switch matrices extend it to as many as 48 test ports for large multiport setups.

Key features

  • Ultrafast sweep cycles: DDS synthesizer technology sweeps 1 MHz to 54 GHz over 1,601 points in 11.7 ms, lifting production throughput
  • Best-in-class dynamic range: up to 150 dB at 24 GHz, with an enhanced dynamic range mode for accuracy where it counts
  • High output power: +11 dBm at 26.5 GHz, so amplifiers can be tested without external gain
  • Excellent long-term stability: magnitude drift below 0.01 dB/°C and phase drift of 0.15°/°C, supporting days of continuous operation between calibrations
  • Flexible frequency upgrades: every model can have its frequency range extended in the field, protecting the investment
  • SCPI recorder: built in, and it shortens the path to an automated test program
  • Multiport capability: R&S® switch matrices extend the analyzer to as many as 48 test ports for complex multiport devices

Typical applications

  • High-volume production test of RF components (filters, passive devices)
  • Characterization of front-end modules and active components
  • Cable, connector and PCB test
  • Amplifier gain compression measurements
  • Measurements on frequency converting components (mixers, multipliers)
  • Intermodulation distortion (IMD) measurements
  • Data center high-speed cable and interface test (to 54 GHz)
