N5230A Agilent N5230ADefinitions
All specifications and characteristics apply over a 25 °C ±5 °C range
(unless otherwise stated) and 90 minutes after the instrument has been turned on.
Specification (spec.): Warranted performance. Specifications include
guardbands to account for the expected statistical performance distribution， measurement uncertainties， and changes in performance due to
environmental conditions.
Characteristic (char.): A performance parameter that the product is expected
to meet before it leaves the factory， but that is not verified in the field and is not covered by the product warranty. A characteristic includes the same guardbands as a specification.
Typical (typ.): Expected performance of an average unit which does not include guardbands. It is not covered by the product warranty.
Nominal (nom.): A general， descriptive term that does not imply a level of
performance. It is not covered by the product warranty.
Calibration: The process of measuring known standards to characterize a
network analyzer‘s systematic (repeatable) errors.
Corrected (residual): Indicates performance after error correction (calibration). It is determined by the quality of calibration standards and how well "known" they are， plus system repeatability， stability， and noise.
Uncorrected (raw): Indicates instrument performance without error correction. The uncorrected performance affects the stability of a calibration.
Standard: When referring to the analyzer， this includes no options unless
noted otherwise.

Corrected System Performance
The specifications in this section apply for measurements made with the N5230A analyzer with the following conditions:
? 10 Hz IF bandwidth
? No averaging applied to data
? Isolation calibration with an averaging factor of 8
