Amplifier Setup

This section provides instructions on how to properly handle and configure the BT100. It also describes the proper forward and return path alignment procedures. It is recommended that you read this entire section before you install the BT100.

Proper Handling Procedures

The following information is useful in reducing GaAs RF amplifier failures caused by Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) or Electrical Over Stress (EOS).

Many electronic components are vulnerable to ESD and EOS. Improper handling during service and installation can subject the BT100 to performance degradation or failure. All closed operational units are equally protected. Compliance with proper handling procedures can significantly reduce ESD and EOS related failures.

To avoid excessive signal level which causes EOS, follow the procedures listed below:

Field Practice

Proper field procedures include:

ƒInstalling the system design value forward equalizer and a high value (20 dB or above) input pad before you install or remove the electronics chassis or activate the system. This significantly reduces RF signal level and avoids possible EOS which can damage the hybrids.

ƒLeaving the input pad location open if a high value pad is not available. A more accurate forward input test point reading is achieved with a high value pad installed.

ƒAvoiding handling of the hybrids. If you need to remove or install the hybrids, follow proper ESD grounding practices as stated under Bench Setup.

Bench Setup

Proper bench handling practices include:

ƒGrounding of the test bench with ESD matting on the work surface and wearing a wrist strap connected to a continuous ground monitor checker. These practices are particularly important when handling hybrids.

ƒTerminating all unused ports with a 75-ohm load.

ƒSecuring all electronics module cover screws or removing the cover completely. Loose screws can cause the BT100 to oscillate and degrade performance.

To successfully setup the BT100, you need to perform the following tasks:

ƒForward path alignment

ƒReturn path alignment

ƒCheck powering and surge protection options
