LA19-14-06 OEM Reflectometer module

The LA19-14-06 instrument is a compact Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) module designed to be embedded into OEM applications. It is a turnkey solution that enables fast and flexible microwave vector measurements within an embedded system. The module is provided with extensive cross-platform software and programming examples are available in multiple languages. The instrument features a novel calibration store feature (patent applied) that aids temperature measurement stability over time.

Features

  • Measures complex reflection and transmission coefficient (S11 and S21)
  • Frequency range: 300 kHz to 6.4 GHz
  • Compact design: 117 x 69 x 19mm
  • Fast measurements: down to 100us per complex reflection coefficient measurement
  • Flexible cross-platform software (Windows, Linux, macOS, Raspberry Pi) with extensive control and programming examples
  • Unique calibration store/refresh feature to improve temperature stability and reduce the number of external calibrations required (patent applied)

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is an OEM VNA?
    Many embedded systems require measurements of complex reflection and transmission coefficients, which can be made by traditional benchtop VNA instruments. An OEM VNA is a compact VNA that performs such measurements, designed to be integrated into embedded systems.

Applications

  • Automated Testing Equipment (ATE)
  • Antenna design and test
  • Sensors
  • Materials Measurement
