How to execute characterization of calibration mixer

1. Setting Stimulus Conditions

Set the stimulus conditions for the channel you want to calibrate. For the necessary steps,

refer to "Setting Stimulus Conditions" on page 70.

You must also set the external signal source in advance. For the necessary steps, refer to "2.

Setting External Signal Source" on page 316.

2. Running VBA Macro

Full 2-port calibration is recommended for characterizing the calibration mixer with the IF

filter, although 1-port calibration is also available. This is because using full 2-port

calibration simplifies the evaluation procedures, which are described in "Overview of

vector-mixer calibration" on page 223. For detailed information on full 2-port calibration,

see "Full 2-Port Calibration" on page 118.

Load the VBA project and then run it.

Step 1. Press

Step 2. Press

Step 3. Specify "D:\Agilent\MixerCharacterization.vba" for the file name in the Open dialog box

and then press the

Step 4. Press

Vector Mixer Characterization Macro

3. Selecting Measurement Port

Select the 1-port calibration port (1 in Figure 4-67).

Select any port if full 2-port calibration is set.
