eVNA Overview
Mini-Circuits’ eVNA-63+ is a high performance, software-controlled vector network analyzer (VNA). By moving the complex data processing and calculation required of vector network measurements out of the instrument and into an advanced software package, Mini-Circuits is able to offer a fully-featured but cost effective VNA for every test bench.
The product ships with Mini-Circuits’ eVNA View software, providing a powerful user interface which will feel familiar to any engineer with experience of VNA measurements. eVNA View also includes a full API with SCPI support, allowing automation of VNA calibrations, measurements, trace displays and data exports from a custom control program.

S2P Measurements
Full support for the S11, S12, S21, S22 measurements of 2 port devices. Phase and magnitude data can be visualized in rectangular, Smith chart, or polar pilots formats, or exported as a Touchstone s2p data file.
Time Domain Analysis – Included!
Extend your measurement capabilities to include TDR (time domain reflectometry), a process for determining distance or time to impedance changes in a transmission line. These changes could include shorts, opens, connectors or other areas where impedance can change. An excellent method for fault finding in PCB assemblies.
Port Extension / De-Embedding
Correct measurement results to exclude the effect of any test fixture by mathematically moving the reference planes up to the DUT input and output
Bandwidth, Limit & Ripple Tests
Automate common measurement activities with powerful marker functions, including filter bandwidth and ripple calculations, and display of pass / fail test results.
Internal Bias-Tees
Two bias-tee inputs allow provision of up to +24V DC / 200 mA max on either measurement port (or both), ideal for powering amplifiers in-line for s2p / P1dB characterization.
Power Sweep
Configure an automated power sweep sequence at a fixed frequency, ideal for measurement of linearity or compression of amplifiers and other 2 port devices. Calibrate the power accuracy with support for external USB power meters.
Application Programming Interface (API)
The eVNA View software suite incorporates an API which allows custom automation programs to be created for the eVNA. Most common programming environments are supported, including Python, LabVIEW, C# and MatLab.
Supports SCPI & Host or Remote Computer Control
Minimum System Requirements
USB 2.0 or later, Windows 7 or 10, i3 CPU or equivalent, 8GB RAM

Offline Simulator – FREE!
Use the eVNA View software with existing s-parameter data files to create a simulated VNA measurement. Learn about VNA operation or prepare a measurement run in advance, without any hardware present.
Perfect for engineers to evaluate the software or students to learn to use VNAs.
Service & Factory Calibration
Factory Calibration
As a precision test instrument, your eVNA-63+ should be calibrated annually. Simply place your calibration order with any Mini-Circuits sales office, or authorized representative, and ship the unit back to Mini-Circuits with the details provided.
Can’t be without your eVNA? No problem, we have a premium calibration that includes a loaner while your device is with us.
Service & Reliability
At Mini-Circuits, we’re known for our exceptional quality, reliability, and service. We understand the importance of your equipment functioning properly. Every eVNA comes with a 3-year warranty.
