2 Monitoring Device Information

- 13 -


Note that the Power Fault is only detected on 100W BUCs and SSPAs.

Also note that the PLL Fault is only detected for BUCs, not SSPAs.

The SAT-7200 data set provides version information for the SAT-7200 Synthesizer
board used only with ATOM BUCs. SSPAs do not use the SAT-7200 and thus do not
provide any version information. The Hardware Version field shows the hardware
version for the SAT-7200 board, while the Firmware Version field shows the version of
the firmware running on the board.

The Temperature Readings data set shows the current temperature for each of the
Power Modules contained within the ATOM device in addition to the current temperature
of the device’s Driver Module. Measured temperatures range from -40°C to 125°C. Table
3
below shows the expected number of Power Modules for each type of ATOM device:

Device Type

Number of Power Modules

KU 25W BUC or SSPA

2 + 1 Driver Module

KU 40W BUC or SSPA

4 + 1 Driver Module

KU 50W BUC or SSPA

4 + 1 Driver Module

KU 100W BUC or SSPA

8 + 1 Driver Module
