Agilent Measurement Journal - Issue 3 - 2007 - (Page 55) Conclusion Accurate switch settling times can be measured using vector network analyzers using either CW time-sweep or pulsedprofile S-parameter approaches. Accurate measurements will allow switch manufacturers and designers to ensure they meet customer requirements. VNAs are easily calibrated to the device ports, removing most of the fixture and measurement-system effects that can contribute significant errors to uncalibrated measurements. These practical measurement methods are easy to set up and apply to switched or pulsed devices. Figure 6. 0.01 dB settling time of switch using pulsed-profile S-parameter measurement References 1. Examples include the Agilent ENA Series RF network analyzers and PNA Series microwave network analyzers. 2.

The Agilent network analyzer uncertainty calculator can be downloaded from www.agilent.com/find/na_calculator. The GSM amplifier never settles to a final value within the measured time slot. Thus, instead of using the deviation from the final value as a measurement criteria, the deviation between two specified times is used. Using this criteria, the gain difference between 400 µs and 2.5 ms is measured to be 0.022 dB as shown in Figure 7. Figure 7.
