275Test Sets
External S-Parameter Test Sets 3
The S-parameter test sets provide the capability to measure reflection
and transmission characteristics (including S-parameters) of two-port
devices in either direction with a single connection. The test sets are
controlled from the analyzer and include programmable step attenuators. These test sets are used with the HP 8753A/B/C or the HP
8753D/E/ES Option 011 only.
HP 85046A/B S-Parameter Test Sets
The HP 85046A/B test sets provide the capability to simultaneously
measure the transmission and reflection characteristics of 50-ohm and
75-ohm devices, respectively.

HP 85047A S-Parameter Test Set
The HP 85047A test set includes a frequency doubler that can be switched
in to measure 3 MHz to 6 GHz in a single sweep or switched out to measure 300 kHz to 3 GHz in a single sweep. The HP 8753B/C controls the
frequency doubler. (The HP 8753D/E/ES Option 006 and 011 with
built-in 6 GHz source does not use the frequency doubler,but is still
compatible with the HP 85047A.) Option 006 (6 GHz receiver) is
required to activate the HP 85047A.

External Test Set Switching
Option 009 replaces the standard solid-state RF test port switch with a
mechanical RF switch. HP 8753 system specifications for standard and
Option 009 test sets are identical. Nominal insertion loss of the solidstate switch is less than 2 dB (at 3 GHz) or 3 dB (at 6 GHz), relative to a
mechanical switch.
Special Test Sets
Special test sets are available to configure the HP 8753ES for specific
applications. Some examples are listed below. Contact HP for details
about these products or for information about additional special options
for HP 8753 network analyzers.
Option H16 Low Noise Floor
Adds the ability to reverse the port 2 coupler to increase the forward
dynamic range by about 13 dB.
Option H36 Duplexer Test Set
Adds a third test port to enable single-connection duplexer measurements. Does not provide Tx-to-Rx and Rx-to-Tx measurements.
Option H39 Three-Port Test Set
Adds a third test port and switching to provide all transmission and
reflection measurements for three-port devices.
Option H68 Extended frequency range above 6 GHz
Allows characterization of components up to 6.8 GHz. Higher frequencies up to 8 GHz can be quoted upon request (may be ordered for HP
8753ET or HP 8753ES).
Option H85 High power test set
Adds access to signal paths to allow the addition of an external amplifier,
high power attenuators or isolators for handling up to 20 watts of power
at the test ports. Standard solid-state transfer switch is replaced by
mechanical switch and internal attenuators are added.
