Frequency Response (Option B7J) Performance
Test
NOTE: This test is to be performed on PSA analyzers with Option B7J only.
The PSA Option B7J is hardware which supports the Digital Comms options. An
electronic attenuator is included in the option.
The attenuator realizes 40 dB of attenuation with 1, 2, 2, 5, 10, and 20 dB steps. The PSA
Option B7J Flatness Test measures the flatness of each attenuator section relative to the
reference frequency of 50 MHz. The test levels the signal source output by employing a
power splitter and a power meter. Measurement uncertainties are kept to a minimum by
using a reference sensor to calibrate a buried sensor. The buried sensor calibration
calibrates out errors such as output tracking of the splitter.
