E7008A Keysight

Functions

Precision calibration of vector network analyzers and related RF test equipment by providing a stable, traceable reference standard; includes a calibration unit with controlled impedance cables, board mounting frame for accurate mechanical stability, and interconnect boards for seamless integration; interfaces with test equipment via GPIB communication for automated calibration procedures, ensuring measurement accuracy and repeatability in S-parameter and network analysis across multiple frequency bands and test configurations.

Platforms

A chassis-integrated calibration module for internal, multi-port RF test systems. The platform is designed to be installed within a larger test set using a provided mounting frame and channel interconnect board, which provides access to internal RF signal paths. The calibration unit is controlled remotely by a host system via a GPIB interface for automated switching of calibration standards. Primarily used for vector error correction and path loss characterization in wireless communication test sets for manufacturing and R&D applications.

Applications

Facilitates automated and precise system calibration of multi-port RF and microwave measurement setups, primarily for vector network analysis. Enables accurate error correction and establishes a known measurement reference plane for characterizing high-frequency components, sub-assemblies, and integrated circuits. Supports the verification of test system integrity and ensures metrological traceability for critical RF parameters.
