Agilent Technologies 856290216 LO Distribution Amplifier Adjustment, TAM Connector Pin Locations

8. LO Distribution Amplifier Adjustment

Procedure

1.Set the HP 85623 (LINE) switch to off and disconnect the line cord. Remove the cover and fold down the Al5 RF and Al4 Frequency Control assemblies.

2.Move the jumper on A2J12 from the WR PROT to the WR ENA position. The jumper is on the edge of the A2 board assembly and can be moved without folding the board down.

3.Reconnect the line cord and turn on the spectrum analyzer.

4.Set the HP 85623 controls as follows:

5.On the HP 85623, press ICAL), MORE 1 OF 2, SERVICE CAL DATA, La LEVELS, and

INT LO LEVEL.

6.Use the knob or keypad to enter the value 32. This sets the LO power to a low level.

7.To set the gate bias, connect the positive lead of the DVM to A14J18 pin 15 and the negative lead to A14J18 pin 6. See Figure 2-16 for a pin location drawing.

8.On the HP 85623, press La GA= LEVEL.

9.Note the Gate Bias voltage printed on the A7 LO distribution amp label. Use the knob or keypad to change the displayed DAC value so the DVM reading is equal to the label voltage, f10 mV.

10.To set the low band sense voltage, connect the positive lead of the DVM to A14J18 pin 13 and the negative lead to A14J18 pin 6.

11.On the HP 85623, press INT LO LEVEL . The message DRIVE FOR BAND# 0 will be displayed.

12.Note the “BO EXT Sense” voltage printed on the A7 LO distribution amp label. Use the knob or keypad, and press enter, to change the displayed DAC value so the DVM reading is 6 mV more negative than the label voltage. For example, if the “BO EXT Sense” voltage is -170 mV, change the displayed DAC value so the DVM reading is -176 mV.

13.Record the DAC value:

DAC value for 1.45 GHz =

14. To set the band 1 sense voltage, set the HP 85623 center frequency to 4.60 GHz.
