PMM 9010: the new fully digital receiver that outperforms competition is here
Once more Narda STS is anticipating the market and competition by introducing the first Fully Digital EMC Receiver and Analyzer that meets all the requirements of the latest civilian and military standards (CISPR-16-1-1 & MIL-STD-461F). Every circuit in the receiver is digital now, with the only exception of the attenuator and the preselector that – physically – shall put a limit to the RF energy entering the equipment.
This architecture, carefully designed to deliver outstanding performances in a very small volume, is the latest development of Narda STS R&D Labs, well known all around the world with the former name “PMM” for their original and effective technical solutions. Add the usual “Easy-to-Use” Narda STS software - always acknowledged for offering the best equipment control with a simple and intuitive user interface - and the picture
The PMM 9010 features several useful functions: as an example, pictures above show the automatic highest peaks finder and the intuitive way to observe the selected peak in Analyzer mode: from measurement to debugging at users’ fingertips!
Practically maintenance-free and exceptionally stable, the PMM 9010 EMI Receiver is the ideal solution for reliable measurements day after day, month after month,year after
year. Moreover, the outstanding feature that service can be easily done by simply replacing plug-in pre-calibrated subassemblies, represents a highly valued advantage in case, for example, of damage to the RF front-end.
Indeed, even when an excess of energy or a too high signal would burn the input stage, the Customer can be back in operation and continue his work in the shortest possible time, being sure that his receiver is still perfectly calibrated. The Narda STS Sales Network is highly qualified and will be your consultant for every measurement problem: ask the experts and make your job easier with PMM 9010, the guiding star in the EMC market.
of the new PMM 9010 is almost complete. PMM 9010: the new fully digital receiver that outperforms competition is here. Continuing the tradition of offering innovative technical solutions for easy and practical measurements applications, the PMM 9010 - a fully digital receiver in the 10 Hz to 30 MHz range - is the first cornerstone of a system which grows together with the users’ needs: all EMC conducted measurements will be possible by simply
upgrading the PMM 9010 with specific options, e.g. Click Meter, MIL-STD filters, and accessories - LISNs and probes - providing a full compliance with almost all international standard or proprietary specifications. Moreover, the modular construction, based on pre-calibrated subassemblies, offers the fastest and most convenient recalibration and service ever!
PMM 9030 and PMM 9060: PMM 9010 companion products for testing up to 3 or 6 GHz
Until now,technology has not allowed a fully digital receiver up to the GHz range, Narda STS has conceived the best possible solution designing these extensions for PMM 9010, enabling the whole test system to go up to 3 or 6 GHz taking all the benefits from the digital approach. The PMM 9030 and PMM 9060 are therefore the ultra-fast 30 MHz - 3 GHz or 6 GHz receivers extending the measurement frequency range of the PMM 9010 up to the field of Radiated Emissions, thanks to a dedicated RF module. A fast and safe connection with PMM 9010 is guaranteed by a High Speed Digital Optical Link, providing the most immune way to transfer data: only the real measurement data received at the antenna reaches the detectors! This dedicated digital Front End perfectly matches with the PMM 9010, to create a compact-size, up-to-date digital receiver up to 3 or 6 GHz. PMM 9030 and PMM 9060 are basically a highly sophisticated auxiliary equipment, which converts the RF input into a digital signal sent to PMM 9010 through a Fiber Optic Cable. The transfer rate is higher than
2.5 GB/s and a huge amount of information is handled by the proprietary protocol. Very limited dimensions and lightweight construction allow the PMM 9030 and PMM 9060 to be connected directly to the antenna, making the dream of many test engineers come true. Benefits are really many, as RF coaxial cables for antenna to receiver connection may significantly affect measurements due to intrinsic cable loss and impedance mismatch.
Moreover, cables may pick up unwanted RF signals along the path from the antenna to the receiver. The PMM 9030 and PMM 9060 overcome all those error sources through the optical link, thus providing more accurate and reliable measurements. In order to allow complete galvanic separation, PMM 9030 and PMM 9060 are battery powered by the same Li-Ion plug-in rechargeable battery used for the 9010 unit, thus providing interchangeability and noise­free performances for up to four hours of continuous operation. Replacing the plug-in battery is just a matter of seconds. The PMM software can drive the coupled 9010-9030 or 9010-9060 to easily perform any measurement foreseen by the commercial and military standards, even stand-alone or, whenever required, with the necessary auxiliary equipment. The APD (Amplitude Probability Distribution) function is another example of how well the new PMM receivers can respond to the evolving requests of upcoming standards. The APD is a statistical characterization of signals recently introduced for testing above 1 GHz, that requires scanning of selected spans and measurements on several frequencies using Peak detector and Max Hold function, then sorting frequencies that show highest disturbance levels and comparing them with the limits for a given “Probability”.
This requires the receiver featuring outstanding hardware with high range, huge memory and ultra fast computation capabilities ­and a software capable of handling all the different test possibilities (two approaches are defined: E-based and P-based). Moreover, to make the Test Engineer's life easier, the software allows the user to adopt the most convenient test approach - fully automatic, semiautomatic, manual, etc. - and,last but not least, to report all the data and results the User may need.

approach is that the computing function do not generate those spurious components a conventional analog mixer would do.
The Pure Mathematical QP, PK, AVG,
High performance digital architecture
characterized by an ultra-fast A/D converter with the DSP controlling 3 processors for different functions: RSP (Receiver Signal Processor), FPGA and CPLD.
No calibrations, no adjustments
after the A/D converter which is inserted in the circuit just when the signal comes out of the input attenuator and the preselector, to take the maximum benefit from the digital approach. All the internal references are derived from the system clock: the receiver is free from any phase noise, jitter, drift, etc.
High-speed RSP and DSP
for highest precision and simultaneity. A dedicated Receiver Signal Processor handles all the numeric signals within the digital IF, while the Digital Signal Processor provides all of the calculations and signals treatment, like simultaneous detections, demodula­tions and graphical representation in real time.
The powerful RSP (Receiver Signal Processor)
allows the use of the FIR (Finite Impulse Response) technique to create digital RBW filters: the result is an impressive lifetime stability of such filters and a shape controlled to the perfection, due to its mathematical modelling. The competitive receivers featuring analogue filters are definitely several steps behind. The Numeric Local Oscillator generates pure mathematical signals for the Digital IF Filters, divided into Real and Imaginary parts. The main advantage of the mathematic
RMS, RMS + AVG Detectors and the APD function
feature absolute stability and lifetime calibration-free operation. The response of such RF receiver is no longer depending from the input signals and the detectors always work exactly as intended. These detectors are mathematical functions for unsurpassed performance and precision: they are simply the best and simultaneous by definition. It shall be noted that all these detectors and functions are needed in a receiver full compliant to the latest CISPR 16­1-1.Then the Product Committee can decide which of these features are the most appropriate; for instance, the latest RMS+Avg detector and the APD functions – as well as the Average detector - will be used with the new digital equipment and/or above 1 GHz. No problem for other products still requiring the more traditional Quasi­Peak and Average detectors: they’re all on board.
Absolute and stable compliance to CISPR
of all digital RBW filters. It’s simply amazing the perfection of these filters mathematically created and shaped to meet exactly the CISPR requirements. If needed by changes in the stardards, new markets opportunities, custom requests etc. Narda can model new filters to upgrade the receivers and implement the new features. This consists just in firmware upgrade done by the user and is a matter of seconds.
Ultra-fast measurements of CISPR A-band (9 kHz ÷ 150 kHz)
the FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) function allows to perform a full scan of the whole A-band in only 1 second! Even when the
source is emitting for very short periods of time - or when the source operating cycle is extremely short, there is a much higher probability to capture and measure the disturbance.
Hold Time
another step ahead from analogue behaviour! At each frequency step, given by the selected filter bandwidth, the PMM 9010 really stops for the preset time, so taking a perfect picture of the signal under analysis, while analogue receivers may show a certain “drift”depending from the sweep time. With setting equal to 0, the Hold Time is the minimum time of permanence required by the selected IF filter for the fastest possible measurement speed.
Built-in Preselector
designed to make correct measurements of all input signals,including pulses.The quality of the preselector - one of the very few analogue sections in the receiver - is essential to guarantee the best performances and represents the most important difference between a true EMI Receiver, capable of the more reliable results, and a generic Spectrum Analyzer adapted to perform EMC measurements.
The Auto Attenuator
provides maximum dynamic range without distortion. It is controlled by an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) directly driven by the internal DSP (Digital Signal Processor) and provides optimum performances in every testing condition, while protecting the RF input (e.g.: zero dB attenuation is not allowed in auto-attenuation mode).
The Built-in Preamplifier
of PMM 9010 cannot be saturated thus it provides correct response to continuous and pulsed signals, while in most receivers the preamplifier is directly connected to the RF input. Saturation might be there without notice!
Pulse Limiter
is built-in in the PMM 9010, providing an extra protection, if required.
The Pre-Loaded CISPR Limits
are stored in a non-volatile memory and immediately available for tests done in “Sweep Mode”: easy, fast and error free!
The Internal RF Generator
in PMM 9010 is a very flexible RF generator tracking with the span or settable at any frequency in the range of 10 Hz ÷ 50 MHz: another powerful tool for the designers that makes the PMM 9010 an easy-to-use scalar network analyzer for characterizing components, filters etc. This generator provides also the self­calibration of the equipment,as it represents the main frequency reference for all the receiver operation. To keep it calibrated, it‘s enough to send back to Narda just the generator module itself: a terrific advantage in terms of costs and speed.
The Click Meter Option
allows the user to perform continuous disturbance tests in a straightforward and easy way. The receiver takes care of everything: evaluation of the Click Rate N; applicable exceptions; Click measurement using Upper Quartile Method; Full Report with all mandatory data. PMM 9010 fully supports the new standard dealing with all the allowed four exceptions, showing in real time all the events including click details and reporting all mandatory and optional data to make a detailed report. It shall be noted that the handling of E-3 is the most demanding in terms of hardware and software, however it is also the exception that is more beneficial for the customer, as it allows to skip unnecessary tests. In general, the first investigation is terminated as per one of the required events listed in the standard: after 40 clicks; after the standard 120 minutes; after a specific time span; manually; paused and resumed to allow restarting recursive EUT programs. Moreover, PMM 9010 has the unique feature
Rechargeable/Replaceable Internal batteries
“Smart Measure” that can dramatically speed up the Click test: another productivity feature by Narda STS.
Input and Output
USB 2.0, RS232C, and Bluetooth for PC communication (GPIB/IEEE-488 via optional external adapter). Programmable User Port to control auxiliary equipment like LISNs and other automatic equipment. High-Speed Optic links featuring 2.6 GBps transfer rate,Bluetooth link, battery charger.
Graphic Display
Instruments typically compromise physical dimensions with display size and type. Despite its small size,the PMM 9010 features a sophisticated graphic process that allows the bright, clear, 16-levels grey backlighted display to catch and show even the narrowest peak in the spectrum.
for enhanced portability and for field tests, also offering the major advantage of being completely disconnected from the mains in critical analysis, for measurements not influenced at all in hostile or noisy environments.
Easier Radiated Power set-up
as the high frequency receiver can be mounted directly on top of the EM Clamp using a suitable Clamp Adapter and a very short cable connection from the receiver to the EM Clamp. This means that the long, movable connection (usually going to a reel on the ceiling of the lab and from there to the receiver) is made with a fibre optic, not with a coaxial cable which is heavier, thicker, less flexible, more subject to damage - especially near to the connectors. Again, mechanical and electrical advantages for the test Engineers.
In-situ Tests
Controls
the receiver can be operated as stand-alone by the front knob and soft keys through user-friendly menus, or remotely by a PC connected via USB or RS232 Serial interface (Bluetooth optionally).
or any tests where the connection to the supply network may introduce additional noise, e.g. due to ground loops - are no longer a problem with the PMM 9010 / 9030 / 9060 receivers: they are battery operated and all share the same model of rechargeable battery.Easy,clean, fast, simple.

The example shows how PMM’s solution can prevent unwanted signals being picked up by the coaxial cable along its path from the antenna to outside the chamber.
The same rechargeable plug-in battery is used for all PMM 9010, 9030 & 9060
Operating Principles of the PMM 9010-PMM 9030-PMM 9060
Perfect, life-long stable and calibration-free RBW filters
(picture: 200 Hz RBW CISPR filter)
After the A/D conversion the behaviour of a regular receiver is mathematically simulated in order to perfectly match international standards specifica-tions. Even for a digital architecture, preselector filters and input attenuators are mandatory for limiting the signal energy into well defined RF bands, to improve the dynamic range and to increase the signal to noise ratio, thus ensuring accurate measurements of all wideband complex signals typical of EMC measurements. The input attenuator provides the maximum dynamic range with no distortion. This is particularly important in conducted tests where overloading signals may be present outside the frequency band under test. To prevent this from happening, the PMM 9010’s input attenuator is directly controlled by the DSP in wideband mode to maintain the response linearity in any conditions and also to protect the RF input from out-of-band signals that are too high. No calibrations and no adjustments are required after the A/D converter: CISPR IF filters and detectors are all mathematically calculated and are thus not subject to any degradation for the life of the instrument. This high performance digital architecture
features an ultra-fast A/D converter with the DSP controlling 3 more processors for different functions: RSP, FPGA, CPLD. The ADC is followed by the Receiver Signal Processor - RSP - that performs most of the analogue-like functions of the receiver and handles all the numeric signals within the digital IF, with the main advantage of this solution directly deriving from the perfection of the mathematic approach: the computing function is equivalent to conventional analogue mixers, but simply cannot generate spurious components which are therefore absent. The sampled signals are processed by the RSP in a purely mathematical “mixer-like mode”, and then applied to FIR (Finite Impulse Response) digital RBW filters: the result is an unbelievably stable filter, a shape controlled to perfection as it is mathematically modelled. Adjustments needed by analogue filters are simply not required. One of the fastest available DSP not only controls the RSP, but also performs all of the calculations and signal processing, like simultaneous detections and graphical representation, in real time; it controls other functions like the frequency
sweep, etc. The DSP simultaneously applies the mathematical algorithms correspon­ding to the detectors Peak,CISPR Quasi­Peak, RMS, Average, RMS+AVE whose response is no longer depends on the input signals, as the detectors always work exactly as intended in perfect time coherent measurements. Thanks to the high number of operations performed by the DSP ­equivalent to those of an ideal 10 GHz Pentium 4™ - the DSP also manages the different operating modes: Sweep Mode, like a traditional receiver with CISPR Limits stored in non-volatile memory, Spectrum and Manual Mode. The Spectrum Mode allows the receiver to perform spectrum analyzer functions, and thanks to the very high scan speed (<100 ms for full-span 9 kHz-30 MHz @ IF resolution 300 kHz) it is very useful for any kind of debugging. In Manual Mode the filter in CISPR bands is selected automatically according to the frequency and the data are displayed with a dynamic range up to 120 dB,and the hold time is exactly the integration time theoretically required by the applied detectors. Moreover, hold time means that the receiver really stops for the preset time,

thus taking a perfect picture of the signal under analysis, with no drift depending from on the sweep time. Other RBW filter standards which may be required in future can be easily added: Narda designers will model them mathematically, verify their performances and add them to userfriendly firmware upgrades. The huge internal memory combined with the capability of making a FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) analysis of the signals allows for an ultra-fast complete scan of the whole A-band (9 to 150 kHz) performed in only 1 second even with the 200 Hz filter. Even in those cases when the source is on for very short periods of time – or when the source has an extremely short cycle - it is possible to see and measure the emissions. A clever function - the Smart Detector ­dramatically reduces test time and improves productivity: the receiver starts scanning with the fast peak detector then,when the reading is close to a selected limit it immediately turns to quasi-peak detector (or any other selected one), moves some frequency step back and measures with the new detector until the signal returns low; then the receiver turns back in peak mode and continues the scan at the
highest possible speed, repeating this process any time there’s an over limit peak . This “performance booster” was first introduced in PMM’s receivers in 1990. To maintain calibration a signal reference is essential: a high stability internal RF Signal Generator (60 to 90 dBμV in 0,1 dB steps) has been added to the PMM 9010. This RF generator can work in tracking mode with the span or set at any frequency in the range of 10 Hz to 50 MHz: in addition to being the main reference for the receiver, it also makes the receiver an easy-to-use scalar network analyzer for characterizing components, antennas, filters etc. To always keep your receiver perfectly calibrated, just send the generator module back to your Narda Dealer: a terrific advantage in terms of costs and speed. After recalibration, this single module is easily reinstalled into the receiver to restart operations immediately after. The PMM 9030 and PMM 9060 are innovative and different from this stand point: although they need an external frequency reference source for calibration check, the complete RF front-end only - a single, solid block module - can be sent to Factory the
same way. Utilizing a digital receiver implementation, it’s easy for such a receiver to integrate a single channel Click Receiver with no additional hardware required: an external option is required only to have a full 4 channels click evaluation. Moreover, the huge memory of the receiver (required for storing each disturbance duration and interval and for post-process) is essential to be able to fulfill the recently modified click specifications approved by CISPR.
