MODULATION TESTS
This procedure verifies the operation of the 682XXB/683XXB fre-
quency modulation input sensitivity circuitry.
The RF OUTPUT of the 682XXB/683XXB is monitored on a Spectrum
Analyzer display. In Unlocked Wide FM mode, the Spectrum Analyzer
is used as a frequency counter to measure the actual FM deviation and
determine FM accuracy. In Unlocked Narrow, Locked, and Locked
Low-Noise FM modes, the Spectrum Analyzer is used to monitor the
carrier level. FM accuracy is determined by measuring the actual FM
deviation necessary to reduce the carrier level to its lowest level.
These tests qualify how the FM input signal affects the signal genera-
tor’s RF output.
Test Setup
Connect the equipment, shown in Figure 3-8, as fol-
lows:
1. Connect the 682XXB/683XXB rear panel
10 MHz
REF OUT
to the Spectrum Analyzer External Ref-
erence Input.
2. Connect the
RF OUTPUT
of the 682XXB/683XXB
to the Spectrum Analyzer RF Input.
