Anritsu Lightning 37397D Vector Network Analyzer

The Anritsu 37397D Vector Network Analyzer has a frequency range of 40MHz to 65GHz. If your job requires advanced testing tools and multitasking, this premium model from Anritsu is the best choice. It is designed to meet the evolving needs of the satellite, defense, radar, optoelectric, high speed component, and broadband communication markets. This is a premium model which has extended power range, gain pressure compression and internal bias tees. It is directly upgradeable to a ME7808C broadband Vector Network Analyzer.

The Gain Compression Application in premium models allow users to define the gain compression of amplifiers, utilizing the swept frequency/power routines. It has the Time Domain Analysis feature that help to analyze alterations in the impedance of circuits and connectors, as a function of time or distance. As described in the Lightning 37000D VNA product brochure, configuration of the Anritsu 37397D VNA is quite flexible. An upgrade to a broadband ME7808C VNA only requires integrating a 37397D VNA, two Anritsu synthesizers, two multiplexing couplers, a broadband test set, and extended W band modules to generate the fast broadband sweep.

The Embed/De-embed feature enables the removal of fixture characteristics of in-fixture measurements and other applications. The new Ethernet Access interface allows for speedy data transfer and remote connectivity. It has an 8.5-inch (diagonal) LCD color screen that allows a user to view all four S-parameters at the same time, or a single S-parameter in four different displays. The built-in Anritsu AutoCal module simplifies the setting up of instruments, makes calibration much faster, and enhances accuracy in measurements.

With all the new features and enhancements available to the Lightning 37397D series, it sits on top of the list in performance and versatility.
