N5511A Operation: A Guided Tour
N5511A Operation: A Guided Tour
This measurement demonstration introduces you to the system's operation by
guiding you through an actual phase noise measurement.
You will be measuring the phase noise of the Keysight N5500A Phase Noise
Test Set's low noise amplifier. (The measurement made in this demonstration is
the same measurement that is made to verify the system's operation.)
As you step through the measurement procedures, you will soon discover that
the phase noise measurement system offers enormous flexibility for measuring
the noise characteristics of your signal sources and two-port devices.
Required equipment
The equipment shipped with this system is all that is required to complete this
demonstration. (Refer to the N5511A Phase Noise Test System Installation
Guide if you need information about setting up the hardware or installing the
software.)
How to begin
Follow the setup procedures beginning on the next page. The phase noise
measurement system displays a setup diagram that shows you the front panel
cable connections to make for this measurement.
If you need additional information about connecting instruments, refer to
"System
