ME7838D VectorStar

The VectorStar ME7838D Broadband system provides high performance in a compact mmwave module with industry-best calibration stability. While other broadband systems continue to provide raw performance with negative directivity in critical frequency bands, the ME7838 series is the only broadband system with positive raw directivity in all bands. The result is better calibration stability and better measurement stability with significantly longer time between calibrations for accurate measurements and improved productivity.

The new ME7838D takes high performance broadband measurements to a new level with the addition of the Anritsu MA25300A mmWave module.

All VectorStar ME7838 broadband systems include an RF VNA architecture using bridges instead of couplers to extend frequencies down to the RF bands (operational to 40 kHz) for near-DC analysis with excellent dynamic range.

The VectorStar ME7838D broadband VNA offers the widest available single frequency sweep from 70 kHz to 145GHz with mmWave bands to 1.1 THz.

Features

• All versions may be configured to include banded millimeter-wave modules up to 1.1 THz
• Industry-best calibration and measurement stability: 0.1 dB vs 0.6 dB over 24 hrs.
• All versions support the 3744x-Rx receiver for noise figure measurements, including the ability to characterize differential noise figure, to 125 GHz
• Compact, lightweight mmWave modules (0.6 lb vs 7+ lbs and 1/50 the volume) offer low cost installation on smaller probe stations.
