Pico Technology VNA Accessories are specially designed for use with PicoVNA Vector Network Analyzers and include VNA test leads and adaptors, calibration kits, and metrology kits. The 8.5GHz test leads include phase and amplitude-stable test leads featuring high-quality, robust construction and stainless steel connectors. The standard test cables are highly flexible. The premium flex-form cables are also flexible but tend to hold their form until purposely moved to a new position. The test port adaptors allow engineers to easily change the gender of the test port.
The 8.5GHz short-open-load-through (SOLT) calibration kits are offered in female and male genders and in standard or premium quality. These four-piece, five-port kits feature high-performance, tight-tolerance stainless steel interface connectors. They are supplied as an assembled five-port “Y” SOLT and can be disassembled for individual usage. Each SOLT has traceable calibration data linked to the kit serial number and comes with a protective carry case.
Pico Technology VNA metrology kits are offered as training kits or demonstrator kits. The PQ186 training kit includes N (m) to SMA (f) inter-series adaptors, SMA (m-m) test leads, and fixed SMA wrenches. The kit includes everything needed to pair with a PicoVNA and begin practice learning. Replacement parts are available with the PQ190 Training SMA (F) SOLT Calibration Kit.
Both the standard and premium demonstrator kits realize and verify the full measurement capability and accuracy of the PicoVNA. Both kits perform high-quality, low-uncertainty measurements, making them suitable for research and doctorate projects.
