Performance, size, reliability, affordability -

The TTR500A series VNA includes an impressive array of technological

and patented advances that allowed us to bend many of the traditional

trade-offs between RF performance, size, reliability, and cost.

Performance: Inside the VNA is a tightly integrated, single-board design.

At its core lies a proprietary ASIC that implements all of the transmitting

and receiving functions. Along with decades of experience in RF front-end

and shielding design, this integration allowed us to implement advanced

DSP and patented error correction techniques that dramatically improve

measurement accuracy and dynamic range.

Convenience: Traditional benchtop VNAs have a computer inside that

typically becomes obsolete by the time the product hits the market. Our

architecture enables significant improvements in size, cost, and reliability

by communicating over USB to your PC, while adding additional benefits

and convenience. For example, run VectorVu-PC with other applications,

share data seamlessly, and save individual application setups on your PC

when multiple users share the TTR500.

Size: A compact single-board design without heavy input and display

components allows the TTR500 to pack a lot of powerful functionality in a

tablet-sized frame. Store it in a drawer, pack it in your briefcase, or carry it

on a plane. Take quality test and measurement technology wherever you

need it.

Reliability: In addition to reduced part count, integration on a singleboard

consumes less energy than traditional benchtop VNAs. The board

generates less heat, resulting in lower component stresses and higher

reliability. A fanless design provides a quieter operation. We back all of this

with a three year warranty.

Affordability: With fewer parts and an integrated design, we created a

handheld VNA that delivers traditional benchtop performance and

convenience at an unrivaled price. Why settle for less?

Integrated bias tee for active devices

Use the built-in bias tee (standard in both models) to provide a DC bias to

active devices without the expense and complication of external circuitry.

Power the bias tee directly through BNC connectors on the rear panel.
