Anritsu 3739B – Broadband Millimeter Wave Test Set

The Anritsu 3739B Broadband Millimeter Wave Test Set extends network analyzer frequency capabilities for precise S-parameter measurements across millimeter-wave bands. Engineered for R&D and manufacturing environments, it enables detailed characterization and optimization of high-frequency components and systems through accurate millimeter-wave testing.

Technical Specifications Frequency Range: 10 GHz to 20 GHz baseline operation, with extension to 54–95 GHz (extended E band), 65–110 GHz (extended W band), and up to 110 GHz, 125 GHz, 145 GHz, or 220 GHz depending on the Anritsu Vector Network Analyzer system and millimeter-wave modules employed. Measurement Capabilities: Performs S-parameter measurements, device and system characterization, intermodulation distortion (IMD) measurements at millimeter-wave frequencies, and swept frequency gain compression measurements.

Key Features

Extends frequency range of network analyzers and VNAs for millimeter-wave operation

Integrates with Anritsu 37000D series VNAs and ME7838A family systems

Compatible with external millimeter-wave modules from OML and VDI manufacturers

Step attenuators and automatic leveling control (ALC) available in specific configurations

Supports receiver calibration for IMD measurements and power meter assisted calibration for gain compression

Multiple sampling points for power and leveling control

High-speed data transfer via GPIB (IEEE 488.2) with optional Ethernet support

Remote programmability and control capabilities

System Integration Configures as part of broader millimeter-wave VNA systems, such as the ME7808B, through addition of specific modules and synthesizers. GPIB connectivity enables control, data transfer, and connection to peripheral devices including printers, plotters, power meters, and frequency synthesizers.
