General Information of Agilent N4373C Lightwave Component Analyzer

Agilent's N4373C Lightwave Component Analyzer (LCA) offers a modulation bandwidth of 50/67 GHz which makes it the ideal choice to develop and characterize electro-optical components, for the upcoming 40G/10GbE as defined in IEEE802.3ba.


Accuracy


For these modern optical transmission systems with advanced modulation schemes it is key for the electro-optical components to have very flat S21 transfer function in amplitude and delay. This performance can be achieved only with electro-optical S-parameter test as provided by the N4373C LCA.


In addition fast, accurate, repeatable and traceable characterization of these electro-optical components, like lasers, modulators and detectors is required, to guarantee the performance with respect to modulation bandwidth, jitter, gain, and distortion.


By optimizing the electrical and the optical design of the N4373C for lowest noise and ripple, the accuracy has been improved by more than a factor of 2, compared to its predecessor, the 86030A 50GHz LCA. This increased accuracy improves the yield from tests performed with the N4373C by narrowing margins needed to pass the tested devices.


This advanced design together with temperature-stabilized transmitter and receiver ensures repeatable measurements over hours without recalibration.


Turn-key solution


The fully integrated "turn-key" N4373C helps reduce time to market, compared to the time-consuming development of a self-made setup. In addition you get a fully specified easy transferable and reliable test instrument. With guaranteed specifications Agilent takes the responsibility to provide you with accurate and traceable test results that can only be achieved in a turn-key solution.


High productivity


The N4373C achieves fast measurements by including the E8361/63C Performance Network Analyzer. A unique new calibration concept significantly reduces setup time to a maximum of several minutes, depending on the selected measurement parameters. This results in increased productivity in R&D or on the manufacturing floor.


Using the advanced measurement capabilities of the network analyzer, all S-parameter related characteristics of the device under test, like responsivity and 3 dB-cutoff frequency, can be qualified with the new N4373C Lightwave Component Analyzer from 10 MHz to 40/50/67 GHz.


Network analyzer


The N4373C LCA is based on the new E8361/63C or the newest N5245A network analyzer with an identical and well known user interface across all Agilent network analyzers.


Absolute frequency response accuracy

  • ± 1.2 dB @ 50 GHz (typ)
  • ± 1.8 dB @ 65 GHz (typ)

Relative frequency response accuracy

  • ± 0.8 dB @ 50 GHz (typ)
  • ± 1.3 dB @ 65 GHz (typ)

Noise floor


  • -60(55) dB(A/W) for O/E measurements @ 50(65) GHz
  • -64(59) dB(W/A) for E/O measurements @ 50(65) GHz

Lightwave Component Analyzer Software Version 2.3

With up to 67 GHz modulation frequency range and excellent accuracy, the N4373C supports S-parameter test of electro-optical components for IEEE 802.3ba transmission systems, as well as Radio over Fiber (RoF) and aerospace and defense (A&D) applications in the 60 GHz frequency range.

Fastest time to market can be achieved by testing electro-optical S-Parameter with the N4373C and lets you focus on developing your high performance components.

Quick and easy measurement setup increases productivity as time-consuming electrical calibration steps are automated and optical calibration by the operator is no longer necessary.

Additional Benefits:


  • Balanced measurements now up to 67 GHz (new)
  • External optical source input for test at all wavelength between 1300 and 1600 nm
  • 1310 & 1550 nm selectable internal transmitter to support IEEE 802.3ba component test
  • Built-in average power meter for fast transmitter power test
  • User selectable optical transmitter output power helps to adapt to target test conditions
  • More then 10 times faster than 86030A speeds up productivity
