Definitions and test conditions
Measurement uncertainty
Specifications describe the instrument's warranted
performance after a half-hour warm-up and over the
temperature range of 25 ˚C 5 ˚C, unless otherwise
stated. Specifications for frequencies above 3 GHz do
not apply to instruments with Option 075 (75-ohm
impedance).
Measurement uncertainty curves utilize a Root Sum
Square (RSS) model for the contribution of random
errors such as noise, typical connector repeatabilities,
and test set switching; this is combined with a worst-
case model for the contributions of dynamic accuracy
and residual systematic errors.
Supplemental characteristics are typical but non-war-
ranted performance parameters. These are denoted as
“typical,” “nominal,” or “approximate.”
Curves show the worst-case magnitude and phase
uncertainty for reflection and transmission measure-
ments, after a full two-port error correction for the
HP 8753ES and enhanced-response error correction
for the HP 8753ET (including isolation with an averag-
ing factor of 16) using the specified cal kit, with 10 Hz
IF bandwidth (BW) and no averaging.
The measurement uncertainty curves and measure-
ment port characteristics given for HP 8753ES
systems also apply to the HP 8753ES with Options 006
and 011 and the HP 85047A test set (50-ohm), or the
HP 8753ES Option 011 with an HP 85046B test set
(75-ohm).
Measurement port characteristics
Characteristics show the residual system uncertainties
for uncorrected performance and after accuracy
enhancement using full two-port error correction for
the HP 8753ES and enhanced-response error correc-
tion for the HP 8753ET. These characteristics apply
for an environmental temperature of 25 5 ˚C, with
less than 1 ˚C deviation from the calibration tempera-
ture. HP 8753ET Option 004 may degrade transmission
source match as much as 2 dB, resulting in up to 0.05
dB additional uncertainty in transmission tracking.
Dynamic range
System dynamic range is calculated as the difference
between the receiver noise floor and the lesser of
either the source maximum output or the receiver
maximum input level. System dynamic range applies to
transmission measurements only, since reflection mea-
surements are limited by directivity.
Noise floor is specified as the mean of the noise trace
over frequency. Noise floor is measured with the test
ports terminated in loads, full two-port error correc-
tion for the HP 8753ES and enhanced-response error
correction for the HP 8753ET (with 16 averages used
during isolation), 10 Hz IF bandwidth (BW), maximum
test port power, and no averaging during the measure-
ment.
Corrected performance indicates residual error after
calibration. It is determined by the quality of calibra-
tion standards, system repeatability, stability, and
noise.
Uncorrected performance indicates intrinsic errors
without calibration correction applied. This is related
to the ultimate stability of a calibration.

is negligible when using an HP 8642A/B, 8656B, or E4432B RF signal generator as the LO source.

Number of display channels
Four display channels available.
Number of measurement channels
Two primary and two auxiliary measurement channels
available.
Measurement parameters
HP 8753ET: Reflection, transmission, A, B, R, A/R, B/R,
A/B. Conversion to impedance or admittance.
HP 8753ES: S11, S21, S12, S22, A, B, R, A/R, B/R, A/B.
Conversion to impedance or admittance.
Formats
Cartesian: log/linear magnitude, phase, group delay,
SWR, real and imaginary.
Source control
Smith chart: with log/linear amplitude and phase,
R + jX, G + jB, or real/imaginary markers.
Polar: with linear/log amplitude, phase, or real and
imaginary markers.
Sweep limits
Set start/stop or center/span of the stimulus parameter
(frequency, power, time) directly through the source
control keys and the control knob, the step keys or the
data entry keyboard.
Data markers
Each display channel has five independent markers
that can be displayed simultaneously. Twenty indepen-
dent markers can be displayed in 4-channel display
mode when markers are uncoupled.
Sweep type
Set a linear or logarithmic sweep, an arbitrarily defined
frequency list, a power sweep or a CW (single frequen-
cy) type of sweep.
Marker functions
Measured number of points per sweep
Linear frequency: choose 3, 11, 26, 51, 101, 201, 401,
801, or 1601 points.
Markers can be used in various functions: Marker
search (Mkr to max, Mkr to min, Mkr to target), Mkr
bandwidth with user-defined target values, Mkr to
start, Mkr to stop, Mkr to center, Mkr to span, Mkr to
reference, Mkr to delay, and trace statistics (average
value, standard deviation, and peak-to-peak deviation
of the data trace between two markers). The tracking
function enables continuous update of marker search
values on each sweep.
Fast swept list
Define up to 30 different sub-sweep frequency ranges
in any combination of CW, center/span, or start-stop
sweep modes. Set test-port power levels and IF band-
width independently for each segment.
Sweep modes
Group delay characteristics
Set a coupled channel sweep (same stimulus condi-
tions on both channels) or an uncoupled channel
sweep.
Aperture: selectable
Maximum aperture: 20% of frequency span
Minimum aperture: (freq. span) / (number of points
+1)
Chop/alternate
Select whether to alternately or simultaneously (chop)
measure channels when in dual-channel mode. Chop
mode is faster, while alternate mode optimizes dynam-
ic range.
Range
The maximum delay is limited to measuring no more
than 180˚ of phase change within the minimum aper-
ture. Range = 1 / (2 x minimum aperture)
Sweep time
Set sweep time in seconds, minutes or hours.
Automatic sweep time
Select auto sweep time by entering zero seconds
sweep time. The analyzer will sweep at the minimum
sweep time for any subsequently selected stimulus
conditions. Auto sweep time is the default condition.

• TRL*/LRM* calibration
HP 8753ET/ES supplemental
characteristics (continued)
Compensates for directivity, reflection and transmis-
sion frequency response, and crosstalk in both the for-
ward and reverse directions. Especially suitable for
calibrating non-coaxial environments, such as in test
fixtures. TRL*/LRM* is a special implementation of
TRL/LRM calibration, modified for the three-sampler
receiver in the HP 8753ES. Available on HP 8753ES
analyzers.
Sweep trigger
Set to either continuous, single, group sweep, or exter-
nal trigger. Set external trigger to take a complete
sweep or to measure individual points in a frequency,
power or list sweep.
Power
Interpolated error correction
Set source power from -20 to +5 dBm for the
HP 8753ET1 or from -85 to +10 dBm for the
HP 8753ES2. Power slope can be set in dBm/GHz.
With any type of accuracy enhancement applied, inter-
polated mode recalculates the error coefficients when
the test frequencies are changed. The number of
points can be increased or decreased and the
start/stop frequencies can be changed, but the result-
ing frequency span must be a subset of the original cal-
ibration frequency span. System performance is not
specified for measurements with interpolated error
correction applied.
Power meter calibration
Select continuous leveling or use a correction table to
modify source power. The correction table is created
with an initial single sweep. Make single or multiple
power meter readings at each frequency.
Data accuracy enhancement
Velocity factor
Enters the velocity factor to calculate equivalent elec-
Measurement calibration
trical length.
Measurement calibration significantly reduces mea-
surement uncertainty due to errors caused by system
directivity, source and load match, tracking, and
crosstalk. Full two-port calibration removes all the sys-
tematic errors to obtain the most accurate measure-
ments.
Reference plane extension
Redefine the plane-of-measurement reference to other
than port 1 or port 2 of the HP 8753ET and 8753ES.
Select default calibration kit
Select from a list of standard calibration kits or choose
a user-defined kit.
Calibration types available
• Frequency response
Data averaging
Simultaneous magnitude and phase correction of fre-
quency response errors for either reflection or trans-
mission measurements.
IF bandwidth:
The IF bandwidth is selectable from 6 kHz to 10 Hz
• Response and isolation
Weighted sweep-to-sweep averaging:
Averages vector data on each successive sweep.
Compensates for frequency response and directivity
(reflection) or frequency response and crosstalk
errors.
Trace smoothing
Computes the moving average of adjacent data points.
Smoothing aperture defines the trace width (number
of points) to be averaged, and ranges from 0.25% to
20% of the trace width.
• Enhanced response calibration
Corrects for frequency response and source match for
transmission measurements, and provides one-port
calibration for reflection measurements.
Display control
• One-port calibration
Uses test set port 1 or port 2 to correct for directivity,
frequency response and source match errors.
Display formats
Single-channel, dual-channel overlay (both traces on
one graticule), dual-channel split (each trace on sepa-
rate graticules), three-channel split (each trace on
separate graticules), three-channel overlay (three
traces on one graticule), quad-channel overlay (four
traces on one graticule), quad-channel split (each
trace on separate graticules).
• Two-port calibration
Compensates for directivity, source match, reflection
frequency response, load match, transmission frequen-
cy response and crosstalk for an S-parameter test set.
Crosstalk calibration can be omitted. Available on
HP 8753ES analyzers.

• Low-pass impulse
This stimulus is also used to measure low-pass devices.
HP 8753ET/ES supplemental
characteristics (continued)
• Bandpass impulse
Frequency offset on/off
The bandpass impulse stimulates a pulsed RF signal
(with an impulse envelope) and is used to measure the
time-domain response of band-limited devices.
Sets the RF source to be swept at a fixed offset fre-
quency above the receiver as required in a swept
RF/IF, fixed LO, mixer test.
Windows
Service menu

shoot and ringing in the time-domain response. Three
types of windows are available: minimum, normal, and
maximum.
Select the desired service test, service diagnostic, ser-
vice or verification mode.
Test sequences
Description
Create, edit, save or recall a series of front-panel key-
strokes to automate a measurement. Test sequences
may contain basic stimulus and measurement func-
tions (frequency, power, parameter, format, scale)
advanced operations (time domain, limit testing, dis-
play marker values) and basic logical branching (IF
limit test fails DO sequence 5 or GOSUB).
Gating
The gating function can be used to selectively remove
reflection or transmission time-domain responses. In
converting back to the frequency-domain the effects of
the responses outside the gate are removed.
Remote programming
Storage
Interface
Test sequences can be stored internally to a disk drive
and can be loaded from a computer over the GP-IB
interface. Sequence 6 is saved in nonvolatile storage
and can be used as an autostart routine when titled
AUTO.
HP-IB interface operates to IEEE 488-1978 and IEC
625 standards and IEEE 728-1982 recommended prac-
tices.
Addressing
The GP-IB address can be verified or set from the
front panel via the local menu and can range from 0 to
30 decimal (factory set at 16).
General purpose input/output
Read or write bits to the output port to control exter-
nal devices such as part handlers. Eight output and
five input TTL lines are available on the parallel port.
Pass control
Allows the HP 8753ET/ES to request control of the
GP-IB (when an active controller is present) whenever
it needs to output to a plotter or printer.
Other functions
PAUSE/continue, wait, title sequence, print sequence,
duplicate sequence, pause and select.
System controller
Lets an HP 8753ET/ES become a controller on the
GP-IB to directly control a plotter or a printer.
Time-domain (Option 010)
With the time-domain option, data from transmission
or reflection measurements in the frequency domain
are converted to the time domain using a Fourier
transformation technique (chirp Z) and presented on
the display. The time-domain response shows the mea-
sured parameter value versus time. Markers may also
be displayed in electrical length (or physical length if
the relative propagation velocity is entered).
Talker/listener
Lets the HP 8753ET/ES become an GP-IB talker/listen-
er when an external controller is present.
Transfer formats
Binary (internal 48-bit floating-point complex format)
ASCII 32- or 64-bit IEEE 754 floating-point format
User-accessible graphics
Time stimulus modes
Using a subset of HP Graphics Language (HP-GL),
vector or text graphics may be written on the
HP 8753ET/ES via GP-IB. Up to 5 kbytes of data can
be stored at one time (4 bytes per vector, 2 bytes per
character).
Two types of time excitation stimulus waveforms can
be simulated during the transformations, a step and an
impulse.
• Low-pass step
This stimulus, similar to a traditional time-domain reflec-
tometer (TDR) stimulus waveform, is used to measure
low-pass devices. The frequency-domain data should
extend from DC (extrapolated value) to a higher value.

A standard HP 85046A/B test set contains a solid-state
transfer switch, which allows continuous switching of
power from port 1 to port 2 for full two-port error cor-
rection. Option 009 replaces the transfer switch with a
mechanical switch. This provides about 1.5 dB more
power at the test port, but does not allow continuous
switching, so the user must initiate updates of all four
S-parameters for full two-port error correction. Also,
the mechanical switch has relays that will wear out
faster than the solid-state switch. Approximate lifetime
of the mechanical switch is 1 million cycles.

The test sets are controlled from the HP 8753ES
Option 011 and include a programmable step attenua-
tor. The frequency range of the HP 85046A 50-ohm
test set is 300 kHz to 3 GHz. The HP 85046A has preci-
sion 7-mm connectors. The frequency range of the
HP 85046B 75-ohm test set is 300 kHz to 2 GHz. The
HP 85046B has 75-ohm type-N(f) connectors. Both
connectors can be adapted to other interfaces with

300 kHz to 3 GHz frequency range.
For more information about
Hewlett-Packard test and measure-
ment products, applications,
services, and for a current sales
office listing, visit our web site,
can also contact one of the following
centers and ask for a test and
measurement sales representative.
The HP 8347A provides leveled output power without using an
external coupler and detector, since these parts are built-in. The
external ALC can be directly connected to the external AM input on
the HP 8753ET/ES. This capability is especially useful for achieving
high dynamic range measurements at faster sweep rates.
