Calibration Refresh Modules

Agilent Technologies 855xxA/B
Series calibration refresh
modules, also known as CalPods,
provide a new and unique way
to quickly and easily refresh a
network analyzer calibration.
Have you ever wondered right
before making a measurement,
“is the calibration still valid?” In
the middle of a very long testing
sequence or when making a
critical measurement is not the
time to be concerned about
whether or not the calibration is
still valid! With calibration refresh
modules, you can be assured of
a valid calibration quickly - at
the simple touch of a button,
without removing the DUT, and
without the physical connection
of standards.

There are many applications that benet from the new
calibration refresh modules:
• Thermal vacuum testing
• Temperature chamber testing
• Measurement of low-loss devices
• Very accurate phase measurements
• Applications that require frequent recalibrations
• Provide the closest device tolerances in production testing
• Applications that have complex and lengthy calibrations, such as multi-port
measurements
• Measurement of cables installed in aircraft
• Remove switch matrix repeatability errors
• Remove switch and connector repeatabiltiy errors in complex ATE test systems
