Automating Measurements
Automated Measurement Setup and Control
You may want to quickly and iteratively change the analyzer’s parameters
and monitor their effect on your device under test. This section describes
how to quickly change a parameter, take a sweep, and query a marker.
For example, when measuring an amplifier, you may wish to quickly choose
the optimal input power to the amplifier which will result in a maximum
output of + 10
do so, you can
set the analyzer’s source power
level, then measure the amplifier’s output, and then change the analyzer’s
source power in the direction that will cause the measured signal to approach
the desired value. This process can be repeated
the measured
output is within some specified range of the target value.
When data at only a single frequency is needed, you can achieve the fastest
possible sweep by selecting a CW frequency and setting the number of points
to the minimum value of 3. A SCPI marker command can be used to read the
trace value.
Using this approach, you can typically achieve 3 to 5 sweeps per second.
Following is a listing of an example program named
that can be
