FM Discriminator Measurement using Double-Sided Spur Calibration

FM Discriminator Measurement using
Double-Sided Spur Calibration
To prevent damage to the Agilent/HP 70420A test set's hardware
components, the input signal must not be applied to the signal input
connector until the input attenuator (Agilent/HP 70420A Option 001) has
been correctly set for the desired configuration, as show in
page 11-11. Apply the input signal when the Connection Diagram appears.
The following equipment is required for this example in addition the phase
noise test system and your unit-under-test (UUT).
To ensure accurate measurements, you should allow the UUT and
measurement equipment to warm up at least one hour before making the
noise measurement.
