1ꢀ Time from trigger input to frequency and amplitude settled within limits given below with digital modulation on and channel corrections enabled.
Specifications are for amplitudes lower than +17 dBm and using an M9036A embedded controller in an M9018A chassis.
2ꢀ Baseband offset frequency settled within 100 Hz. Baseband offset can be adjusted ± from carrier frequency within limits determined by RF
modulation bandwidth. Synthesizer frequency and amplitude are not changing and ALC off.
3ꢀ Carrier frequency settled within 1 ppm or 1 kHz, whichever is greater, and amplitude settled within 0.2 dB (within the controlled temperature range) or
within 0.5 dB (at the full temperature range). For frequency changes ≥ 1.6 GHz at carriers ≥ 3.2 GHz nominal frequency settling time within
± 0.05% of final frequency is 125 µs. Simultaneous carrier frequency and amplitude switching.
4ꢀ Frequency bands: One (1 to 400 MHz); Two (> 400 to < 750 MHz); Three (≥ 750 to < 1500 MHz); Four (≥ 1500 to < 3000 MHz);
Five (≥ 3000 to 6000 MHz).
5ꢀ Mean time from IVI command to carrier frequency settled within 1 ppm or 1 kHz whichever is greater and amplitude settled within 0.2 dB.
Simultaneous carrier frequency and amplitude switching.
