When the BNC connector is configured as an internal DC bias port, the BNC con-
nector provides direct current output. Active equipment under test can be sup-
plied with power via the bias port.
Risk of instrument damage
To avoid damage to the tracking generator output, never apply currents
greater than 600 mA or voltages greater than 20 V to the BNC connectors if
the BNC connectors are not configured as BIAS output ports.
If they are configured as BIAS ports, never apply currents greater than 600
mA or voltages greater than 50 V.
Headphone jack
The 3.5 mm connector for headphones has an internal impedance of approxi-
mately 10 Ω.
USB type A connector
The USB port provides the USB interface to connect a memory stick and store
data sets or screenshots. It can also be used to control the operation of the exter-
nal power sensor.
RF out / Reflection
For model .02, the RF out connector provides a signal source output power at
-10.00 dBm nominal.
For model .12, the RF out connector provides the following ways to generate a
signal source output power at -10.00 dBm nominal.
●
Tacking generator output
●
Continuous signal source output
●
Coupled continuous signal source output
For model .12, the RF out connector can also be configured as an internal DC
bias port. When the RF out is configured as a BIAS port, the RF out connector
provides direct current output. Active equipment under test can be supplied with
power via the bias port.
