HP/Agilent N4430A 4-port RF ECal Module, 30 kHz to 6 GHz

The Agilent N4430A four-port ECal module is the perfect companion for Agilent’s RF balanced measurement solutions. Fast, and easy-to-use, the ECal module replaces the standard SOLT-based mechanical calibration kit with a solid-state transfer standard. With a single set of connections, the ECal module cycles through all of the impedance states required for a full, four-port, vector error-corrected calibration in under a minute. A comparable calibration, using the operator-intensive mechanical-standard technique, could easily take five times longer. Not only is ECal fast, it is also extremely repeatable and accurate. Control of the ECal module is built into the balanced-measurement application software — the same software that controls the measurement and provides the differential analysis. Ease of use is provided through an intuitive graphical user interface.
