Reference VCO Tank DAC Calibration

(N5161A / N5162A / N5166B / N5171B / N5172B / N5181A / N5181B / N5182A / N5182B / N5182N)

The RF ABUS Calibration must be performed prior to this adjustment.

The goal of this calibration is to turn on the MUAT oscillator and peak its output power. This calibration is done in two parts. First a coarse adjustment is performed to determine the bounds of the RF Tank DAC value where the MUAT oscillator is activated. Once the DAC bounds are determined, a fine adjustment is performed to peak the power delivered by the MUAT oscillator.

No additional equipment required.

Connections and Setup Procedures

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