ADA400A Differential Preamplifier
2. Connect a coaxial cable from sine wave generator trigger output to Ch4 of
the oscilloscope.
3. Connect dual input connector to inputs of ADA400A.
4. Connect 50 Ω terminator to dual input connector.
5. Connect two 10X attenuators to 50 Ω terminator.
6. Connect a coaxial cable from sine wave generator output to 10X attenuators.
7. Adjust trigger level for a steady display.
8. Adjust the amplitude of the sine wave generator for 5 divisions on screen.
9. Remove the two 10X attenuators and connect the cable directly to the 50 Ω
terminator.
10. Set ADA400A '- -' input to DC.
11. Set oscilloscope to 1 mV/div.
12. Measure signal is ≤ 1 division (1 mV, 60 dB).
13. Modify the equipment settings according to Table 13.
