5. Spectrum Analyzer Second Harmonic Distortion Test
The following test can be used to verify the input related spurious response of the Spectrum Master.
a. Equipment Required:
· Anritsu MG3692A Synthesized Signal Source with options 2A, 4 and 15A, or equivalent
· Anritsu 34RSN50 50 ohm adapter or equivalent
· Anritsu 15NNF50-1.5C RF Coaxial Cable or equivalent
· 10 MHz Reference Standard
· 50 MHz Low Pass Filter (Anritsu part number 1030-96)
· BNC male to BNC male coaxial cable
b. Procedure:
1. Connect the 10 MHz reference source to the Anritsu MG3692A Synthesized Signal Source.
2. Connect one end of the 50 MHz Low Pass Filter to the output of the source and the other end to
the Spectrum Master RF Input with the coaxial cable.
3. Connect the external power supply (Anritsu part number 40-168) to the Spectrum Master.
4. On the Spectrum Master, press and hold the
turn on the Spectrum Master. (This sets the instrument to the factory preset state.)
5. Turn on the 10 MHz reference source and the Anritsu MG3692A Synthesized Signal Source.
6. Set the MG3692A output to 40 MHz CW, with an RF output level of –30 dBm.
NOTE: Before continuing, allow a 30-minute warm up for the internal circuitry to stabilize.
