Fig. 5-12 Pulse modulation rise and fall time test set-up
Test procedure
(1) Connect the test equipment as shown in Fig. 5-12.
(2) On the UUT set:
Carr Freq 50 MHz
RF Level +7 dBm
Pulse ON
(3) Set the function generator to produce 10 kHz, 0 V to +5 V square wave.
(4) Adjust the oscilloscope controls such that the rise time of the envelope can be measured.
(5) Measure the rise time between the 10% to 90% points checking that it is within the
specification shown in Table 5-42.
(6) Repeat (4) to (5) for the fall time of the envelope.
