Plug-in Modules for the HP 54750A
• HP 54751A Plug-in
The HP 54751A plug-in offers two 20 GHz bandwidth channels.
The two-wide configuration allows up to four channels in the
HP 54750A mainframe. The bandwidth of each channel may
be selected independently from the channel menu as either
20 GHz or 12.4 GHz. The bandwidth of the channel is altered
by changing the bias on the sampling bridge.
The low-noise characteristic of the plug-in gives an RMS noise
level of <1.0 mV in the high-bandwidth mode and <0.5 mV in
the low-bandwidth mode. With exceptionally low noise and a
minimum sensitivity of 1 mV/div, the HP 54751A is ideally
suited for evaluation of low-level signals.
The plug-in provides a single external trigger input of 2.5 GHz.
Triggering to 18 GHz is possible by using the HP 54118A.

• HP 54752A and 54752B Plug-ins
The HP 54752A has two 50 GHz bandwidth channels and the
HP 54752B provides a single cost-effective channel. Both plug-ins
use 2.4 mm connectors to provide the highest fidelity from the DUT .
These plug-ins also feature a dual bandwidth scheme which can
be selected independently from the mainframe. The low-bandwidth
mode bandlimits the signal to 26.5 GHz. The high-bandwidth
mode RMS noise performance is <1.5 mV and the low-bandwidth
mode is <0.75 mV.
