Source port (#S) external switch control output for noise figure |
Output |
Indicates that the source signal is out. This signal is changed to the Low level when the source signal is out. |
Receiver port (#R) external switch control output for noise figure |
Output |
Indicates that noise sweep. This signal is changed to the high level when the target port is used in a sweep for noise measurement. |
N1966A can be used for the E5080B. This D connector to RF adapter makes accessing the application I/O signal more convenient.
The following two parts are required to place the N1966A on the E5080B rear panel.
