Main Features
- Vector network analyzing up to 20GHz
1Hz frequency step - Good accuracy and anti-interference ability
- Abundant functions and easy to carry
Main Functions
- Transmission measurement S21(Filter adjustments, measuring amplifiers, verifying
directivity of antennas) - Reflection measurement S11(Impedance matching network adjustment, antenna
feeding system quality evaluation. Except for the KC901Q, which requires an external coupler to measure S11, the coupler can be purchased separately. - RF source and audio signal source
- Time domain reflection(DTF) measurement
- Limited Spectrum display and field strength observation
Recommended Applications
The KC901 is mainly used for adjusting various RF circuits, such as filters, amplifiers, splitters, combiners; testing input/output impedance, evaluating antenna feeding system and detecting equipment’s signal amplitudes at all levels. It can also do field strength measurement, which is useful for checking the correct operation of low powered devices with integrated antennas and when searching for interference sources etc.
