  1. New N5264A PNA-X Measurement Receiver Jim Puri Applications Specialist March 2009

  2. N5264A Measurement Receiver No connectors on front panel

  3. LO out (Opt. 108) USB 2.0 10/100 Mbps Five IF inputs (7.605634 MHz) N5264A PNA-X Measurement Receiver

  4. N5264A Description: • Measurement Receiver for antenna and system level applications. • Five IF inputs are in the rear. • Two hardware configurations: • Receiver only (8530 equivalent) • Receiver with LO source • Key Aspects: • Five IF inputs available (thereby eliminating the PNA-X test set, which is not required for antenna systems) • FIFO (enabling infinite measurement durations). • Point mode (enabling point averaging). • 8530A Drop-in replacement (for equivalent functionality). • Hard-drive removal *** for secure environments *** • Two Software option: • Fast-CW (Circular buffer, FIFO) mode • Time domain (Opt. 010)

  5. Key Specifications: • Data acquisition time (speed) = 400,000 / Sec (Opt. 118 Fast-CW mode) • Input compression point (.1dB)= -10.00 dBm • Sensitivity (noise floor) = -145 dBm (worst case @10Hz IFBW, 0 average) • Dynamic Range = 135 dB (worst case @10Hz IFBW, 0 averages) • Measurement Receiver = 5 with 5 inputs (data taking simultaneously) • Data Buffer = 500,000,000 points • Target Customers: • All 8530A antenna end-users • All antenna system integrators • Key Applications: • Antenna test (A/D and Commercial) • Radome tests • System Integrator (ATE)
