Performance Tests – Option 011
6. Receiver Channel Noise Floor Level (Only for Analyzers with Option006)
Receiver Channel A Noise Floor Level with 10 Hz IF BW
(3 GHz–6 GHz)
33 Press MEAS, INPUT PORTS, A.
34 Press MENU, TRIGGER MENU, SINGLE.
35 When the analyzer finishes the sweep, record the mean value, which appears
on the analyzer display.
36 Use the following equation to convert the linear magnitude mean value to log
magnitude:
Power (dBm) = 20 * [log10(linear magnitude mean value)]
37 Write this calculated value in the “Performance Test Record” in dBm.
Receiver Channel A Noise Floor Level with 3 kHz IF BW
(3 GHz–6 GHz)
38 Press AVG, IF BW, 3, k/m.
39 Press MENU, TRIGGER MENU, SINGLE.
40 When the analyzer finishes the sweep, record the mean value, which appears
on the analyzer display.
41 Use the following equation to convert the linear magnitude mean value to log
magnitude:
Power (dBm) = 20 * [log10(linear magnitude mean value)]
42 Write this calculated value in the “Performance Test Record” in dBm.
In Case of
Difficulty
1Perform the “ADC Offset Correction Constants (Test 52),” located in the
“Adjustments” chapter in the Agilent 8753D Option 011 Service Guide.
2Suspect the A10 digital IF assembly if both receiver channels fail.
3Refer to the Agilent8753 D Option 011 Service Guide for further
troubleshooting information.
