Section 1
Introduction and Specifications
INTRODUCTION |
1-1. |
The 6080A/AN Synthesized RF Signal Generator (also referred to as the "signal generator") is a fully programmable, precision, synthesized signal generator. The 6080A/AN is designed for applications that require good modulation, frequency accuracy, and output level performance with excellent spectral purity. The signal generator is well suited for testing a wide variety of RF components and systems including filters, amplifiers, mixers, and radios, particularly off-channel radio testing.
Specifications of the 6080A/AN are provided at the end of this section. The salient features of the 6080A/AN are as follows:
• RF frequency range of 0.5 MHz to 1024 MHz in 1 Hz steps
•RF level range of +13 to -137 dBm in 0.1 dB steps
•Internal and External Modulation: AM, FM, and Pulse
•Internal 10 Hz to 100 kHz Synthesized Sine Wave Modulation Oscillator
•Fifty Storable and Recallable Memory Locations
•Standard IEEE-488 (GPIB) Interface, complying with ANSI/IEEE Standards 488.1-1987 and 488.2-1987
•Closed-case calibration capabilities for Frequency Reference, AM, FM, and Level.
UNPACKING THE SIGNAL GENERATOR |
1-2. |
The shipping container should include a 6080A/AN Synthesized RF Signal generator, an Operator Manual, a Service Manual, a line power cord and two BNC dust caps. Accessories ordered for the signal generator are shipped in a separate container.
Section 2, "Installation", gives instructions on inspecting the new signal generator and explains what to do if it arrives damaged. Reshipment information is also included.
INTRODUCTION AND SPECIFICATIONS
SAFETY |
1-3. |
This manual contains information, warnings, and cautions that should be followed to ensure safe operation and to maintain the generator in a safe condition.
The signal generator is designed primarily for indoor use and may be operated in temperatures from 0 to 50°C without degradation of its safety.
WARNING
TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCK, USE A POWER CORD THAT HAS A THREE-PRONG PLUG. IF THE PROPER POWER CORD IS NOT USED, THE 6080A/AN CASE CAN DEVELOP AN ELECTRICAL POTENTIAL ABOVE EARTH GROUND.
WARNING
PIVOTING MODULE INSTRUCTIONS
IF NECESSARY DURING REPAIRS, PIVOT THE TOP (SYNTHESIZER)
MODULE UP TO ALLOW ACCESS TO ALL PARTS OF THE SIGNAL
GENERATOR. THE MODULE IS HEAVY AND CARE SHOULD BE EXER-
CISED. THE GAS STRUT IS PROVIDED FOR PROTECTION. CHECK THE
CORRECT OPERATION OFTHE GAS STRUT BY NOTING THE RESISTANCE
TO RAPID CLOSING OF THE MODULE WHILE YOU FIRMLY GRASP THE
MODULE BY THE HANDLE.
OPENING AND CLOSING INSTRUCTIONS ARE GIVEN BELOW AND ARE
REPEATED ON THE DECAL ON THE TOP FRONT OF THE SYNTHESIZER
MODULE.
RAISING THE MODULE:
1.REMOVE THREE HOLD-DOWN SCREWS LOCATED ON THE SIDE RAILS.
2.GRASP THE HANDLE AND LIFT UP.
3.LOCK IN THE UP POSITION BY INSTALLING ONE SCREW IN THE PROTRUDING BOSS ON EACH SIDE RAIL.
LOWERING THE MODULE:
1.SUPPORT IN THE UP POSITION AND REMOVE TWO LOCK UP SCREWS.
2.GRASP THE HANDLE AND LOWER THE MODULE KEEPING YOUR HANDS CLEAR.
3.LOCK IN THE DOWN POSITION BY REINSTALLING THE THREE HOLD-DOWN SCREWS.

|
modeled as 1.2V in series with 50 ohms at the pulse |
|
modulation input connector. The signal generator |
|
senses input terminal voltage and turns the RF off |
|
when the terminal voltage drops below 1 ± 0.1V. Max |
|
allowable applied voltage, ±10V. |
PULSE MODULATION (RF FREQUENCIES < 10 MHz) |
|
RISE & FALL TIMES |
< 2 X period of RF Frequency. |
LEVEL ERROR |
For pulse widths >10 X period of RF Frequency, |
|
power in the pulse will be within ±0.7 dB of the |
|
measured CW level. |
Other specifications are the same as for the 10 to 1056 MHz range.
NON-VOLATILE MEMORY
50 instrument states are retained for typically 2 years, even with the power mains disconnected.
REVERSE POWER PROTECTION |
|
PROTECTION LEVEL |
Up to 50 watts from a 50 ohm source, up to 50V DC. |
|
Signal generator output is AC coupled. Protection is |
|
provided when the signal generator is off. |
