HP 85064A Type-N Electronic Calibration Module, 1 to 19 GHz


[ Summary ][ Features ][ Specifications ][ Ordering ][ Assistance ]

Product Summary

The electronic calibration system consists of a control unit and a connector specific calibration module. The control unit provides communication and control for the calibration module. The HP 85064A (Type-N) is an electronic calibration module that must be controlled by the control unit (HP 85060C).

Electronic calibration (ECal) is a precision, single-connection, one- or two-port calibration technique that uses fully traceable and verifiable electronic standards. ECal provides repeatable, accurate measurements while bringing convenience and simplicity to your daily calibration routine. ECal replaces the traditional calibration technique which uses mechanical standards.

With mechanical standards, you are required to make numerous connections to the test ports for a single calibration. These traditional calibrations require intensive operator interaction, which is prone to errors. With ECal, a full two-port calibration can be accomplished with a single connection of the ECal module and minimal operator interaction. This results in more repeatable calibrations and less wear on the connectors--and on you. Calibrations for noninsertable devices are equally convenient and straight-forward.

š Typical numbers exclude the effect of Shock and Humidity.  Typical performance 
  can be achieved if the module is not exposed to severe humidity or dropped 
  from greater than 16 inches after factory calibration.  Specifications include
  the effects of all environmental conditions:  Sine Vibration, Random Vibration,
  Storage Survival, Operating Temperature Stability, Shock, Humidity.
˛ Port A and B have different specifications.  Difference is typically 0 to 2 dB 
  for source match and directivity, and 0 to 0.006 dB for reflection tracking. 
  Data Shown is worst case (port B).
ł When a broadband calibration is performed (using a lowband module), Option 001
  specifications are achieved.
