Chapter Overview
This chapter provides information on the APPLICATION menu and Differential Noise Figure Measurement configuration, when the VNA is equipped with Option 48. The configuration process starts when the VNA application mode is changed to Noise Figure, which enables the noise figure measurement configuration and operation menus and dialogs.
Although this option is entitled Differential Noise Figure, single-ended noise figure measurements are still available and all of the functionality of Option 41 (covered in Noise Figure (Option 41)) is included within Option 48. Hence, these options are mutually exclusive.
