Rohde Schwarz ZVA

Item# 1289

Product Description


he R&SZVA series is the high-end class of the Rohde & Schwarz network analyzers. It combines the firmware operating ease and high measurement speed uniformly implemented in the R&SZVA R&SZVB and R&SZVT with exceptional RF characteristics a wide scope of functions and high flexibility. The R&S ZVA series is thus an ideal choice for sophisticated measurements in the lab and in production - from filter measurements calling for maximum dynamic range to linear and nonlinear measurements on (power) amplifiers mixers as well as receivers transceivers etc.

  • ) Best possible data specific options or 1 Hz IF bandwidth required. For details see “Specifications in Brief” or R&S ZVA data sheet.

    The R&S ZVA has set milestones for the most challenging of applications:



    First VNA with second internal source up to 50 GHz for fast two-tone measurements on amplifiers and mixers



  • Arbitrary frequency and power settings for internal and external generators and internal receivers

  • Conversion loss and intermodulation measurements on mixers

  • Intermodulation and hot S-parameter measurements on amplifiers



    First VNA up to 50 GHz that generates phase-coherent signals

  • Quick and easy testing of balanced DUTs using true differential stimulation

  • Generation of signals with user-defined magnitude and phase relationship on the DUT plane



    First VNA with IF bandwidths up to 30 MHz for pulsed measurements on amplifiers and mixers up to 50 GHz (for details see "Applications" and "Options")

  • Frequency- and power-swept point-in-pulse measurements

  • Pulse profile measurements with 12.5 ns resolution on pulses with a width smaller than 50 ns
