4.2.11
Pulse Modulation Overshoot and Settling Time
Specification
Overshoot/undershoot/
ringing:
+2dB maximum
Settling Time:
<100 ns to within 1 dB
Description
A crystal detector is connected to the GT 9000, terminated in 50
Ω
, and monitored with an
oscilloscope.
☛
NOTE: It is very important to use either the specified detector or one with similar
rise-time characteristics. Even when terminated in 50
Ω
with a short cable, the
detector parameters can markedly influence the measurement.
Procedure
1.
Connect the equipment as shown in the figure. The cable from the detector to the
oscilloscope should be kept as short as possible.
2.
Press [SHIFT] [RESET] on the UUT and set the frequency to the first Test Data Sheet
frequency which is within the operating range of the instrument.
3.
Enable the pulse modulation of the UUT by pressing [PM] [MODE..(INT)]
[SCROLL..(RATE)] [1] [MHZ] [SCROLL..(WIDTH)] [.5] [US] [ON].
4.
Set the oscilloscope to 5 mv/div and using the RF Level control of the UUT and the vertical
position of the oscilloscope, adjust the peak to peak oscilloscope display to be from the top
of the screen (pulse off) to 2 divisions below the center line (pulse on). Adjust the
oscilloscope sweep time to 50 ns/div. Change the level setting of the UUT by plus and
minus 1 dB and note the graticule position of the pulse on level. Return to the original
value. Measure and record the time for the pulse to be within 1 dB of its final value.
Equipment Required
