Agilent Technologies recently introduced five new PNA-L vector network analyser models, offering design and manufacturing engineers performance (up to 50 GHz) in a mid-range VNA. Agilent’s new N523xA PNA-L vector network analysers replace existing N5230C models. They are available in five frequency models, starting at 300 kHz, with two or four ports available for the 13,5- and 20-GHz models, and two ports available for the 8,5-, 43,5- and 50-GHz products. The models feature both increased measurement range (5 dBm more output power and 20 dB more dynamic range) and speed (the result of a new synthesiser with faster frequency switching). They also offer an improved user interface with a 24% bigger display. Because the models are 100% compatible with the N5230C PNA-L, no changes to the user’s current test setup are required. The new PNA-L models use the Agilent PNA-X’s innovative components, including the CPU and display.Contact Steve Alves, Concilium Technologies, Tel 012 678-9200,
