- Compact modular USB PC-VNA design.
- Measured S-parameters S11, S21, S12, S22.
- Dynamic range 133 dB (10 Hz IF bandwidth).
- 24 µs measurement speed.
- 200,001 measurement point per sweep.
- 6 logical channels with 16 traces each max.
- Time domain and gating conversion included.
- Frequency offset mode, including vector mixer calibration measurements.
- Multiple precision calibration methods and automatic calibration.
- Automation programming in Python, LabVIEW, MATLAB, .NET, etc.
- Application: Broadcasting industry where the standard line impedance is often 75 Ω.
- Optional accessory: For users needing to measure 75 Ω splitters with or without gain, insertion loss and isolation of a coaxial switch, or six simultaneous 2-port measurements in a production environment, a PE0312-75 is the perfect solution to pair with the SC7540 VNA.
- S2 Software: Included, for Windows or Linux operating system on a PC, laptop, tablet, or x86 board computer connecting to the measurement hardware via USB interface. S2 software can be installed on multiple computers, making it easy to share the use of the analyzer measurement module.
