Reference VCO Kv Calibration (Adjustment)

N5161A / N5162A / N5181A / N5182A

The RF ABUS Calibration and the Reference Internal Standard Calibration must be performed prior to this calibration.

The goal of this calibration is to determine the tuning sensitivity of the reference oscillator (Kv). This value is used by firmware to control the reference system. This adjustment will set the reference oscillator N.f number and measure its corresponding frequency outputs. The data will be used to calculate the tuning sensitivity of the reference oscillator (Kv).

Connections and Setup Procedures

All test equipment requires a 30 minute warmup period to ensure accurate performance.
