HP 8360 AM Input, FM Input, RF Output, Trigger Input, Trigger Output, Specifications, Inputs & Outputs, Auxiliary Output, External ALC input, Pulse input/Output

Inputs & OutputsAuxiliary Output

Provides an unmodulated reference signal from 2 to 26.5 GHz at a typical minimum power level of -10 dBm. Nominal output impedance 50 ohms. (SMA female, rear panel.)

RF Output

Nominal output impedance 50 ohms. (Precision 3.5 mm male on 20 and 26.5 GHz models, 2.4 mm male on 40 and 50 GHz models, front panel.)

External ALC input

Used for negative external detector or power meter leveling. Nominal input impedance 120 kR, damage level f15 volts. See RF output specifications. (BNC female, front panel.)

Pulse input/Output

TTL-low-level signal turns RF off. When using the standard internal pulse generator, a TTL-level pulse sync signal preceding the RF pulse by nominally 80 ns is output at this connector. Nominal input impedance 50 ohms, damage level +5.5, -0.5 volts. See modulation specifications. (BNC female, front panel:)

AM Input

Nominal input impedance 50 ohms (internally switchable to 2 kn), damage level f15 volts. See modulation specifications. (BNC female, front panel.)

FM Input

Nominal input impedance 50 ohms (internally switchable to

600 ohms), damage level f15 volts. See modulation specifications. (BNC female, front panel.)

Trigger Input

Activated on a TTL rising edge. Used to externally initiate an analog sweep or to advance to the next point in step or list mode. Damage level +5.5, -0.5 volts. (BNC female, rear panel.)

Trigger Output

Outputs a one-microsecond-wide TTL-level pulse at 1601 points evenly spaced across an analog sweep, or at each point in step or list mode. (BNC female, rear panel.)
