Balance Error
The circuit shown in Figure 73 is used to measure the balance error of the main differential amplifier. A network
analyzer is used as the signal source and the measurement device. The output impedance of the network
analyzer is 50Ω and is DC coupled. R
IT
and R
G
are chosen to impedance match to 50Ω and maintain the proper
gain. To balance the amplifier, a 49.9Ω resistor to ground is inserted across R
IT
on the alternate input. The output
is measured using a high impedance differential probe at the summing junction of the two R
O
resistors, with
respect to ground.
