Page 18: Connector Care
Connector Care The front of the trigger head has two precision 3.5 mm connectors, one for the input signal and one for the trigger output. These are high precision connectors with a closer mechanical tolerance than standard SMA cables. Never attach a cable to a trigger head connector if the cable has a worn or damaged connector because the trigger head connector can be damaged. - Page 19 Connector Care SD 51 User Manual Artisan Technology Group - Quality Instrumentation ...

Page 23: Signal Connectors
Using the Trigger Head Signal Connectors The INPUT and TRIG OUT signal connectors are precision 3.5 mm connec tors that are mechanically compatible with the SMA standard. Follow pre cautions stated under Connector Care when connecting any cables or adapters. Connecting an Input Connect a 1 GHz to 20 GHz signal that you wish to trigger on to the INPUT connector. -
Page 24: Connecting To Trigger Out
Using the Trigger Head Connecting to Trigger The TRIG OUT connector provides a trigger pulse that can be synchronized with the input signal. The output pulse is typically 200 mV into a 50 W load with a time between pulses of 9 ms to 15 ms, depending on the input signal frequency. -
Page 25: Sync Adjustment
Using the Trigger Head SYNC Adjustment To make the SYNC adjustment, perform the following steps: Step 1: Connect a 1 to 20 GHz signal to the SD 51 INPUT connector. Step 2: Connect the TRIG OUT signal from the SD 51 Trigger Head to the Trigger Input of the instrument mainframe. -
Page 26: Setup Example
5 attenuator (Tektronix part 015-1002-00) a signal generator, such as the Tektronix SG 504, capable of producing a signal in the 1 GHz to 20 GHz range with 1 V to 50 V amplitude. The power divider and 5 attenuator reduce the signal level at the SD 51 input by ten. - Page 27 Using the Trigger Head CAUTION To prevent damage to the trigger or sampling head and instrument, never install or remove a trigger or sampling head when the main frame power is on. Connect your equipment as shown in Figure 5, then proceed. Step 1: Initialize the instrument (press the UTILITY button and touch Initialize).
