The 36585 Series Precision AutoCal is specifically designed for the VectorStar Family of Vector Network Analyzers, Anritsu's Premium Line MS4640A Series VNA.
The 36585 Series Precision AutoCal provides the highest performance calibration, barring the use of multiple airlines for an LRL coaxial calibration. The latter is used only by metrology centers due to its tedious nature, requiring the manual insertion of center conductors and outer shells of multiple beadless airlines. However, because the AutoCal calibration method is a transfer method that is based on the LRL Calibration, it provides better-corrected characteristics than any SOLT manual calibration, even if using a Sliding Load. Coupled with the fact that automatic calibrations are much faster and less error-prone than manual calibrations, the precision AutoCal becomes the preferred VNA calibration method for all applications, from R&D to Manufacturing.
Features:
- Broadband - Uses multiple reflect states and over-determined algorithms
- Accuracy - Best high-frequency switching technology for the lowest parasitics, resulting in the lowest loss and best matches
- Stability - Longest re-characterization period of 12 months
- Serviceability - Re-characterization by customers using the MS4640A
