Rohde & Schwarz ZVA24 Vector Network Analyser Description

The Rohde & Schwarz ZVA24 is an ideal choice for demanding measurements in the lab and in production – from filter measurements requiring maximum dynamic range to linear and nonlinear measurements on amplifiers and mixers as well as on receivers and transceivers.

The R&S ZVA Network Analyser series has set milestones for the most challenging applications:

  • First VNA with four internal sources up to 67 GHz for fast two-tone measurements on amplifiers and mixers
  • First VNA up to 67 GHz that generates phase-coherent signals
  • First VNA with IF bandwidths up to 30 MHz for pulsed measurements on amplifiers and mixers up to 110 GHz

Rohde & Schwarz ZVA24 Features

  • Linear and nonlinear amplifier and mixer measurements
  • Noise figure measurements
  • Pulse profile measurements with 12.5 ns resolution
  • True differential measurements for reliable characterisation of active devices with balanced ports
  • High output power typ. > 18 dBm
  • Wide dynamic range typ. > 140 dB
  • High measurement speed < 3.5 μs per test point
  • Wide IF bandwidth: 1/5/30 MHz
  • Versatile calibration techniques: TOSM, TRL/LRL, TOM, TRM, TNA, UOSM
  • Automatic calibration units
  • Phase and group delay measurements on mixers with and without LO access
  • Frequency range: 300 kHz to 8 GHz (R&S ZVA8), 10 MHz to 24/40/50/67/110 GHz (R&S ZVA24/40/50/67/110)
