Noise Floor for the RF Synthesizer (EFC) Measurement
If the output amplitude of your UUT is not sufficient to provide an adequate
measurement noise floor, it will be necessary to insert a low noise amplifier
between the UUT and the Agilent/HP 70420A input. (Refer to "Inserting an
Device" in
Chapter 6, "Absolute Measurement Fundamentals"
for details on
determining the effect that the amplifier's noise will have on the measured
noise floor.)
