Variable Voltage Source (Opt. 309)

An internal DC source, available with Opt. 309, may be used to provide power
for external devices. The maximum power available is 8 watts.
The voltage is output through an SMB (m) output connector located on the
left-side panel. See the connector in
An optional SMB (f) to BNC (m) bias-tee power cable is available with Keysight
part number: N9910X-713.
The following status line is provided near the top of the FieldFox screen.

IMPORTANT! Noise Figure mode uses DC variable voltage source (VVS) –
(Option 309) during the measurements. The voltage might be as high as
28V during the measurement. During the noise figure measurement,
always make sure there are no voltage sensitive devices connected to the
DC SMB output port. Refer to

When you initially change the FieldFox mode to Noise Figure, the FieldFox
displays the following message for ten seconds:
"Ensure your Noise Source is connected to the VVS DC Output
It (VVS) will be driven up to +28V during the measurement".
