Company confidential RH-20 CCS Technical Documentation RF Troubleshooting Introduction to RF troubleshooting Measurements should be done using Spectrum analyzer with high-frequency highimpedance passive probe (LO-/reference frequencies and RF power levels) and Oscilloscope with a 10:1 probe (DC-voltages and low frequency signals). The RF-section is build around one RF-ASIC (HELGO N500). For easier troubleshooting, this RF troubleshooting document is divided into sections.
