The 9640A Series is an RF reference that takes the central role and
typically halves the cost of a high capability RF calibration
system. Its unique features and performance enable it to replace up
to four signal sources (from audio/function generators to RF signal
and low phase noise sources), power meters and power sensors, step
attenuators, filters, pads, couplers, and also a frequency counter
with the 9600FC integrated counter option. For many spectrum
analyzer models operating below 4 GHz, only the 9640A Series is
required to perform their entire calibration.
The 9640A Series performs more than 80 percent of all the tests
required during high performance spectrum analyzer calibration. For
workload with frequency requirements beyond 4 GHz, an existing RF
and microwave source can be used alongside the 9640A rf reference
to address the few remaining higher frequency test points all
controlled by MET/CAL software.
The features of the 9640A Series provide many benefits in spectrum
analyzer calibration. They also make the 9640A ideal for other
workload, including RF millivoltmeters, signal level meters,
modulation analyzers, receivers, counter/timers and attenuator
calibration. Reducing the number of instruments in a calibration
system brings many benefits. Metrology is simpler with fewer error
sources and uncertainty contributions to consider. System support
costs are reduced, as there are fewer instruments to calibrate and
maintain. A smaller, more compact and robust system with a
dependable rf reference is also a practical onsite calibration
solution with lower transport costs.
The 9640A models are designed to match or exceed the performance
and functionality of the HP3335A and HP8662/3A in calibration
systems. With HP3335A GPIB command emulation as standard in both
9640A models and optional HP8662/3A emulation in the 9640A-LPNX,
replacing these popular but obsolete and difficult-to-maintain
products becomes just a plug-and-play substitution. HP8662/3A GPIB
command emulation is installed on the 9640A-LPNX as "try before you
buy" temporary license for convenient and thorough compatibility
testing.
