Time-Domain analysis (SNA5000-TDA)
July 27, 2021
Basic Time Domain Reflectometer activation license for the SNA5000A series of VNAs
Measured frequency responses can be transformed to the time domain to analyze the
time-domain characteristics of the DUT.
| Enhanced Time Domain Reflectometer (SNA5000-TDR) | Basic Time Domain Reflectometer (SNA5000-TDA) | |
| Similarities | 1. Time-domain responses obtained by IFFT on frequency-domain data. 2. Includes gating and de-embedding | |
| Differences | TDR simulates the setup of a traditional time domain reflectometer | N/A |
| Includes time domain low-pass step and pulse response for reflection and transmission | Includes time domain low-pass step and pulse response as well as bandpass response for reflection and transmission | |
| The rise time of the step signal and the width of the pulse signal can be set | N/A | |
| Supports eye diagram transmission testing | N/A | |
