This is a complete list of the technical specifications for the N5227A PNA network analyzer with
Notes
This document provides technical specifications for the 85058B and N4694A calibration kits.
Please download our free Uncertainty Calculator from http://www.agilent.com/find/na_calculator to generate the
curves for your calibration kit and PNA setup.
Typical performance information between 67 GHz and 70 GHz is shown in this document where available. The
performance is degraded at particular frequencies in this range due to the modes of the 1.85 mm connectors used
in the analyzer, test port cables and adapters.
For all tables in this data sheet, the specified performance at the exact frequency of a break is the degraded value
of the two specifications at that frequency.
the following options. See block diagrams for all models and options beginning on page 47.
2-Port Models
Option 200 - 2-port base model with standard test set.
Option 201 - To base model, adds front-panel jumpers and R1 receiver switch.
Option 219 - To base model, adds front-panel jumpers, R1 receiver switch, source and receiver
attenuators (extended power range), and bias-tees.
4-Port Models
Option 400 - 4-port base model with standard test set.
Option 401 - To base model, adds front-panel jumpers and R1 receiver switch.
Option 419 - To base model, adds front-panel jumpers, R1 receiver switch, source and receiver
attenuators (extended power range), and bias-tees.
Definitions
All specifications and characteristics apply over a 25 °C ±5 °C range (unless otherwise stated) and 90
minutes after the instrument has been turned on.
Specification (spec.): Warranted performance. Specifications include guardbands to account for the
expected statistical performance distribution, measurement uncertainties, and changes in performance
due to environmental conditions.
Characteristic (char.): A performance parameter that the product is expected to meet before it leaves
the factory, but that is not verified in the field and is not covered by the product warranty. A
characteristic includes the same guardbands as a specification.
Typical (typ.): Expected performance of an average unit which does not include guardbands. It is not
covered by the product warranty.
Nominal (nom.): A general, descriptive term that does not imply a level of performance. It is not
covered by the product warranty.
Calibration: The process of measuring known standards to characterize a network analyzer's
systematic (repeatable) errors.
Corrected (residual): Indicates performance after error correction (calibration). It is determined by
the quality of calibration standards and how well "known" they are, plus system repeatability, stability,
and noise.
Uncorrected (raw): Indicates instrument performance without error correction. The uncorrected
performance affects the stability of a calibration.
Standard: When referring to the analyzer, this includes no options unless noted otherwise.

The specifications in this section apply for measurements made with the N5227A PNA network
analyzer with the following conditions:
10 Hz IF bandwidth
No averaging applied to data
Isolation calibration with an averaging factor of 8
System Dynamic Range and Receiver Dynamic Range
System Dynamic Range is defined as the specified source maximum output power (spec) minus
the noise floor (spec).
Extended Dynamic Range at Direct Access Input is defined as the specified source maximum
output power (spec) minus the direct receiver access input noise floor (spec).
Receiver Dynamic Range is defined as the test port compression at 0.1 dB (typical) minus the
noise floor (typical).
NOTE:
The effective dynamic range must take measurement uncertainties and interfering signals into account. This set-up
should only be used when the receiver input will never exceed its maximum receiver input. When the analyzer is in
segment sweep mode, it can have predefined frequency segments which will output a higher power level when the
extended dynamic range is required (i.e. devices with high insertion loss), and reduced power when the maximum
receiver input level will occur (i.e. devices with low insertion loss). The extended range is only available in one-path
transmission measurements.
It may typically be degraded at particular frequencies below 500 MHz due to spurious receiver residuals.

Description
Typical Performance
Aperture (selectable)
(frequency span)/(number of points -1)
Maximum Aperture
20% of frequency span
Range
0.5 x (1/minimum aperture)
Maximum Delay
Limited to measuring no more than 180° of phase change within the
minimum aperture.)
Group delay is computed by measuring the phase change within a specified frequency step (determined by the
frequency span and the number of points per sweep). In general, the following formula can be used to determine the
accuracy, in seconds, of specific group delay measurement:
±Phase Accuracy (deg)/[360 × Aperture (Hz)]
Depending on the aperture and device length, the phase accuracy used is either incremental phase accuracy or worstcase phase accuracy
The following graph shows characteristic group delay accuracy with full 2-port calibration and a 10 Hz IF bandwidth.
Insertion loss is assumed to be < 2 dB and electrical length to be ten meters.
For any Sij Group Delay measurement, Sii = 0, Sij = 1, Sji = 0, Skl = 0 for all kl ij
