## Overview

The A110 Converter Unit extends the frequency range of the Vector Network Analyzer. It operates as a frequency converter, allowing measurements beyond the base unit's capabilities, typically utilizing an external test port connection. The unit interfaces via a dedicated connection to the VNA, providing local oscillator and intermediate frequency signals. Common applications include extended frequency range S-parameter measurements.

## Function

Performs frequency conversion and signal conditioning functions to enable the vector network analyzer to measure network parameters across different frequency bands. Interfaces with the main analyzer chassis through standard connectors, integrating RF input/output paths with local oscillator signals. Designed for installation within modular analyzer platforms, supporting precise calibration and high dynamic range measurements in microwave and millimeter-wave device characterization applications.

## Platform

RF/microwave test system component designed for frequency extension of vector network analyzers. Operates in a laboratory or production test environment with input from RF signal generators and output to ZVM vector network analyzers. Interfaces via coaxial RF connectors for signal transfer and system cables for control and power. Compatible with ZVM test sets, calibration kits, and measurement software. Used in characterization, verification, and production testing of microwave components, devices, and systems, enabling accurate s-parameter measurements at extended frequency ranges.

## Application

Designed to extend the frequency range of the associated vector network analyzer, this converter unit enables high-frequency measurements up to 110 GHz by performing frequency up- and down-conversion at the device under test (DUT). It integrates with external test sets and diplexers to facilitate precise calibration and measurement of RF and microwave components, antennas, and modules in advanced wireless communications, radar systems development, and mmWave device characterization. Its compact design minimizes signal loss and ripple by allowing close placement to the DUT for enhanced measurement accuracy in demanding high-frequency test environments.

## Accessories

Requires R&S ZVM vector network analyzer as the main control unit. Features two N-type female RF connectors (50 ohm impedance) for signal input/output, a multi-pin control interface for connection to ZVM mainframe, and power input via ZVM system bus. Compatible with ZVM-B1 external frequency conversion kit and ZVM-B4 bias network accessory. Needs calibration kit matching the frequency range for accurate measurements.

## Interface

Front panel BNC female for RF input/output connection to DUT, rear panel 15-pin D-sub connector for control and power from ZVM mainframe, proprietary multi-pin interface for direct connection to ZVM test set port, integrated N-type or 3.5mm precision RF connectors depending on frequency range configuration, requires ZVM mainframe with compatible firmware version and test set, DC power supplied through mainframe connection, no external power adapter needed, supports remote control via mainframe GPIB/IEEE-488 or RS-232 interfaces
