– Key Features
• Exceptional dynamic range and trace noise enable high-accuracy characterization across wide signal levels
• Fast sweep speeds support high-throughput automated test environments
• Scalable architecture: cascade up to 16 modules within a PXIe chassis for multi-site and multiport configurations
• All ports remain fully synchronous, enabling simultaneous multiport measurements with error correction
• Modular frequency coverage—purchase only the range required, reducing cost and eliminating unused capability
• Delivers the same measurement science and metrology as Keysight benchtop VNA instruments
• Compact single-slot footprint maximizes available chassis space
– Typical Applications
• Component characterization and verification
• Signal integrity and transmission line analysis
• Automated production test and yield optimization
• Multi-site parametric testing in high-volume manufacturing
• Multiport device and interconnect measurement
– Compatibility & Integration
The M9373A integrates into PXIe chassis including the M9019A 18-slot platform and supports both embedded and external PC controllers. Software drivers include IVI-COM, IVI-C, LabVIEW, and MATLAB, enabling integration with standard T&M development environments. Calibration via Keysight N7800A software ensures automated, traceable compliance. Multiport cable kits and accessory packages extend measurement capability.
