PicoVNAs are all-new, UK-designed, professional USB-controlled, laboratory grade vector network instruments of unprecedented performance, portability and value for money. Despite their simple outline, small footprint and low cost, the instruments boast a four-receiver architecture to minimize the uncorrectable errors, delays and unreliability of internal transfer switches.

The PicoVNA 106 delivers an exceptional dynamic range of 118 dB at 10 Hz and less than 0.005 dB RMS trace noise at its maximum operating bandwidth of 140 kHz. The instrument can also gather all four S-parameters at each frequency point in just 182 μs or S11 + S21 in less than 100 μs. In other words, a 201 point 2-port .s2p Touchstone file in less than 37 ms or up to two .s1p files in less than 19 ms.

The low price makes it cost-effective as a deep dynamic range scalar network analyzer or a single-port vector reflectometer as well as a full-function dual-port, dual-path vector network analyzer.

The PicoVNA 106 is affordable in the classroom, in small businesses and even in amateur workshops, yet capable of meeting the needs of all users up to the laboratory or production test technician or the metrology expert. Features and benefits 300 kHz to 6 GHz operation
