Key Facts

Picture R&S®ZVA Vector Network Analyzers

LXI Class C conformant

The R&S^®ZVA series is the high-end class of the Rohde & Schwarz network analyzers. It combines the firmware, operating ease, and high measurement speed uniformly implemented in the R&S^®ZVA, R&S^®ZVB, and R&S^®ZVT with exceptional RF characteristics, a wide scope of functions, and high flexibility. The R&S^®ZVA series is thus an ideal choice for sophisticated measurements in the lab and in production – from filter measurements calling for maximum dynamic range to linear and nonlinear measurements on (power) amplifiers, mixers, as well as receivers, transceivers, etc.

Excellent performance^(*)

Wide dynamic range	typ. >150 dB
High output power	typ. >18 dBm
High measurement speed	<2 μs per point
Very short sampling time	430 ns per point
Large number of test points	60001 points per trace
Wide IF bandwidth	15 MHz (30 MHz for pulse profile measurements)
Internal sources	2 (4-port models)
(*) Best possible data, specific options, or 1 Hz IF bandwidth required. For details see “Specifications in Brief” or R&S^®ZVA data sheet.

The R&S^®ZVA has set milestones for the most challenging of applications:

First VNA with second internal source up to 50 GHz for fast two-tone measurements on amplifiers and mixers

Arbitrary frequency and power settings for internal and external generators and internal receivers
Conversion loss and intermodulation measurements on mixers
Intermodulation and hot S-parameter measurements on amplifiers

First VNA up to 50 GHz that generates phase-coherent signals

Quick and easy testing of balanced DUTs using true differential stimulation
Generation of signals with user-defined magnitude and phase relationship on the DUT plane

First VNA with IF bandwidths up to 30 MHz for pulsed measurements on amplifiers and mixers up to 50 GHz (for details see "Applications" and "Options")

Frequency- and power-swept point-in-pulse measurements
Pulse profile measurements with 12.5 ns resolution on pulses with a width smaller than 50 ns
