Analog Bandwidth
The following steps prepare the network analyzer for m easur ing bandwidth and CMRR. The actual settings may vary w ith
different models of network analyzer. Refer to the user documentation supplied with the network analyzer for details
on performing these steps.
NOTE. An alternative procedure for testing the analog bandwidth and CMRR without a network analyzer is available.
Preparation
The 1103 power supply can operate two probes. To keep the probe warmed up, move it to channel 2 of the 1103 while
normalizing
channel 1.
1. Set the netwo
rk analyzer to measure transmission loss, S
21
. Attach cables to both ports.
2. Set the displ
ay format to log magnitude, 1 dB/div, reference value –14 dB, and linear frequency.
3. Set the start
frequency to ≈ 30 kHz (or the lowest frequency on the network analyzer) and the stop frequency to ≈ 2GHz.
4. Set the test p
ort power to +10 dBm .
5. Set the IF ban
dwidth to 10 kHz.
6. Attach the ca
ble from port 1 to the 1103 channel 1 input connector (TekProbe connector). Use a male BNC adapter
if necessary.
7. Attach the cable from port 2 to the 1103 channel 1 output connector (conventional BNC). U se a male BNC adapter
if necessary.
8. Normalize the network analyzer to remove the loss through channel 1 of the 1103 power supply.
