Definitions and Conditions

Specification (spec): represents warranted performance of a calibrated instrument that has been stored for a minimum of 2 hours within the operating temperature range of 0 to 50°C, unless otherwise stated, and after a 1 hour warm–up period.

The specifications include measurement uncertainty. Data represented in this document are specifications unless otherwise noted.

Typical (typ): describes additional product performance information that is not covered by the product warranty. It is performance beyond specifications that 80% of the units exhibit with a 95% confidence level at room temperature (approximately 25°C). Typical performance does not include measurement uncertainty.

Nominal (nom): describes the expected mean or average performance, or an attribute whose performance is by design, such as the 50 Ω connector. This data is not warranted and is measured at room temperature (approximately 25°C).

Measured (meas): describes an attribute measured during the design phase for purposes of communicating expected performance, such as amplitude drift vs. time. This data is not warranted and is measured at room temperature (approximately 25°C).

All of the above apply when using the instrument in its default settings unless otherwise stated.

This data sheet provides a summary of the key performance parameters for UXG vector adapters. All options referenced in this data sheet are described in the UXG vector adapter configuration guide (5992–2332EN).

This is a combined data sheet for the N5194A UXG Vector Adapter and the N5192A 2 UXG Vector Adapter, Modified version. Unless otherwise stated, all specifications, typical, nominal and measured values described in this data sheet will be the same for the N5194A and N5192A and apply:

  • When the N5194A UXG vector adapter is used together with the N5193A UXG agile signal generator with options EP1 enhanced phase noise, FR1 fine frequency resolution, SS2/SS4 switching speed, and CC1 LVDS I/O interface.

Note:

  • The minimum options required for proper operation are SS2/SS4 switching speed and the CC1 LVDS I/O interface.
  • The N5194A UXG agile vector adapter 40 GHz model (option 540) only requires a 20 GHz N5193A UXG agile signal generator to operate over its full 40 GHz frequency range.
  • When the N5192A UXG vector adapter is used together with the N5191A UXG agile signal generator with options FR1 fine frequency resolutions, SS3 switching speed and CC1 LVDS I/O interface.

Note: The minimum options required for proper operation are SS3 switching speed and the CC1 LVDS I/O interface.

The N5193A and N5191A provide the 6 GHz reference and LO signals necessary for operating the N5194A and N5192A respectively.

Synchronization

Multiple UXG agile vector adapters can be synchronized together with one UXG agile signal generator to have coherent outputs. This is useful for simulating angle–of–arrival (AoA) and phased array antenna wavefronts.

One of the UXG vector adapter units must be configured as the LO controller and it is typically connected to the N5193A via a 100 pin LVDS cable.
