Phase Noise Verification

Use this procedure to verify the NI 5663 system. Phase noise is dominated by the NI PXI-5652; 
refer to the NI PXI-5652 verification and adjustment tests if there are issues with the NI 5663 
phase noise.

The frequencies and offsets used in this test were chosen to cover all the internal states used by 
the NI PXI-5652.

Table 19 shows the test limits. 
1.

Connect the PN source to the power splitter input through the N (m)-to-3.5 mm (f) adapter 
and 3.5 mm-to-3.5 mm cable.

2.

Connect the power splitter reference output to power sensor A.

3.

Connect the other power splitter output to the NI 5601 RF IN connector through the 3.5 mm 
(m)-to-3.5 mm (m) adapter.
