Tolerance AnalysisCMU
Tolerance Analysis
Due to the small measur ement uncertainty of the CMU, the measuring equipm ent must m eet stringent
requirements. Since the measur ement uncer tainty of the measuring equipm ent to be achieved depends
on the test setup used, it is recommended to perform a tolerance analysis.
To be able to trace back errors in the measurement, the measurement uncertainty should also be
indicated in the test report.
The tolerances given in the test report refer to the values specified in the data sheet, ie the
measurement uncertainties of the test setup used are to be taken into account as well.
Unless otherwise specified, the specified tolerances are always to be observed.
Note:Please take into account the ETSI Technical Report ETR 028.
The given tolerances refer to CMU data sheet 04/99.

CMUManual Adjustment
2 Adjustment
The following chapter describes the manual adjustment of the reference sources as well as the
software-controlled adjustment of individual module data following module replacement (automatic
adjustment of module data).
The manual adjustment of the +5 VDC ref erence source which provides the highly stable DC reference
voltage for the individual CMU modules as well as that of the 10 MHz refe rence f requency source which
determines the frequency accuracy of the CMU are desc ribed. The adjustm ent perm its to m aintain and
restore the data integrity of the instrument.
Manual adjustments must be perfor m ed at an am bient tem perature between +23°C and +30°C after the
instrument has warmed up.
After the software-controlled adj ustment has been perform ed, the CMU is ready for use and offers full
data integrity except for the level accuracy. In order to attain the level accuracy specif ied in the data
sheet, it is necessary to record the path error data. T o this end, the CMU must be tes ted using the test
system ACS 100 (see chapter 1, Performance Test).
Manual Adjustment
In the following, the measuring instrum ents and auxiliary means required for the manual adjustment of
the CMU, the appropriate preparations of the instrum ent as well as the individual adjustments will be
explained.

Cooling the Instrument
Axial fan in the casing
Axial fan of power supply
Axial fan of FRONT MODULE
Axial fan of RF FRONTEND
The right side panel contains a temperature-controlled axial fan (120
mm x 120 m m x 38 mm ), which sucks in cold am bient air at the right
tube of the casing and blows it through the modules via a ventilation
duct and further ventilation slots. T he amount of air is contr olled via the
width of the slots depending on the power dissipation of the module.
The modules are cooled by the air flow, and the heated air is then
blown out at the left side panel.
In addition, the power supply of the CMU is equipped with its own
temperature-controlled axial fan (80 mm x 80 mm x 25 mm) with a
separate air circulation. The fan sucks in cold air on the left rear side of
the power supply casing and blows out the heat produced in the power
supply on the right rear side of the power supply casing.
For cooling the controller board, the FRONT MODULE is pr ovided with
its own axial fan (40 mm x 40 mm x 10 mm), which sucks in cold
ambient air on the left side of the instrument and blows it out at the
right side panel.
The RF FRONTEND which can process powers up to 50 W is
equipped with an aluminum casing with its own air duct, cooling fins
and a temperature-controlled axial fan (40 mm x 40 mm x 20 mm),
which dissipates the heat by sucking in cold air directly on the right rear
side of the instrument and blowing in out again on the right front s ide of
the instrument.
The cooling concept makes sure that all components are optimally
cooled so that the complete instrument achieves a high MTBF.

FRONT MODULE
The FRONT MODULE c onsists of an alum inum c ase panel and a m ounting plate which ac com m odates
the LCD, the keyboard mat with the membrane and the spinwheel.
The case panel incorporates the FRONT MODULE CONTROLLER, the fan and the hard disk.
LCD
Operating keys
Spinwheel
The color LCD provides a visible output of any information,
measurements etc. to the user.
The resolution of the LCD is 640 * 480 pixels (VGA).
The display incorporates two cold cathode tubes for the illumination.
The high voltage required for this purpose is generated in an extra
DC/AC converter mounted next to the display on the mounting plate
and connected both to the display and the controller board via a cable.
The liquid crystal display is controlled via a ribbon cable that is plugged
in on the controller board.
The operating keys consisting of a keyboard mat and a membrane
release a contact when the rubber key is pressed. T wo LEDs for the
STANDBY/ON key (orange for STANDBY/green for ON) are also
accommodated on this membrane.
The rubber keys enable the user to call up all CMU functions.
The key evaluation and LED control are effected via a film cable
connector on the controller board. Like the contr ol of the two LEDs, it is
controlled in a special microprocessor on the controller board by
means of a matrix technique. T his micr oprocessor perm its to store the
status of the STANDBY/ON key when switching off using the power
switch.
The spinwheel consists of a flexible magnetic ring with individual
magnets for the lock-in positions. With each turn of the spinwheel,
electrical pulses are released from the LEDs and the optical position
detectors and sent via a ribbon cable to the microprocessor on the
FRONT MODULE CONTROLLER for evaluation.
The spinwheel serves the user as a further m eans of data entry and
operation.

The control signal STANDBY/ON contro lled by the FRONT MODULE
CONTROLLER (depending on the operating key STANDBY/ON on the
front of the instrument frame) activates the power supply.
The POWER SUPPLY is a primary clocked switching power supply
with Power Factor Correction (PFC) and Standby circuit (+12 V
Standby).
On the secondary side, it generates all DC voltages (+3.3 V; +5.2 V;
+6 V; +8 V; +12 V; +12 VFAN; +12 V Standby; +28 V; -12 V) for the
CMU.
The secondary voltages are open-circuit-proof and short-circuit-proof
with respect to ground and each other.
When switching on and off (defined reset), the POWER SUPPLY
generates a POWERGOOD signal for control of the FRO NT MO DULE
CONTROLLER.
An overtemperature protective c ircuit is additionally installed to prevent
overheating. This status is taken to the FRONT MODULE
CONTROLLER via a status signal (OT).
A 3-pin connector with integrated 2-pin mains switch for connection
with the AC-Supply is installed on the rear panel of the POWER
SUPPLY. From there, the AC supply voltage is internally taken to the
first board via two cables.
Two fuses are also fitted there as a means of fire protection.
Primary side
Secondary side
Note: These fuses are not accessible to the user from outside and
are only blown in the case of a serious fault of the power
supply (servicing required!).
The following circuit parts fo llow on the f irs t boar d: EMI f ilter and power
rectifier. The rectified AC supply voltage is taken via a cable to the
second board of the Power Factor Correction (PFC). This circuit
converts the rectified AC supply voltage up to a constant voltage of
380 VDC. Then this voltage is taken to a step down converter which
provides a constant voltage of 280 VDC f or the s ubsequent res onance
step down converter, which chops it with approx. 35 kHz.
An additional connecting cable is used to feed the big transformer
located on the first board. It is provided with taps for the various
secondary voltages, and the following rectifiers constitute the transition
to the DC secondary side.
The +12 V-, -12 V- and +6 V- secondary voltages are provided with
analog regulators in order to ensure a high spurious suppression.
The +3.3 V- and +5.2 V- secondary voltages have their own stepdown
converters to achieve small power dissipations.
The +28 V- voltage requires a stepup converter in order to generate
the high voltage with a high accuracy.
At the +12 VFAN, a constant current source is used for efficient
suppression of fan interference.
The secondary voltages are then filtered and subsequently taken to the
output connector.

Standby converter
and control unit
Connection
The third printed circuit board which serves as a connection between
the first and second board accom modates the control and m onitoring
circuit parts. Besides, it includes the standby converter, which
generates a +12-V standby voltage from the 380 VDC voltage of the
PFC circuit.
The POWER SUPPLY is directly connected to the MOTHERBOARD
via a 96-pin FUTURE-bus connector on the MOTHERBOARD and
screwed to the integrated rear panel of the CMU with its casing.
MOTHERBOARD
The MOTHERBOARD consists of five individual printed circuit boards: MOTHERBOARD1,
MOTHERBOARD2, FRONTPANEL BOARD, REARPANEL BOARD1 and REARPANEL BOARD2.
MOTHERBOARD1
The MOTHERBOARD1 is the central motherboard and serves as
connection between most of the modules. It supplies the m odules both
with voltages and control, status and bus signals in various layers ( 12layer multilayer).
The MOTHERBOARD1 accom m odates various ISA bus driver devices
for the PCMCIA INTERFACE control as well as protective circuits.
These protective circuits consist of diodes and polyswitches (currentdependent, self-opening and closing fuses) and protect against
external overvoltages of the interface signals.
Nine LEDs indicate the status of the supply voltages and help with
troubleshooting.
On MOTHERBOARD1, a circuit f or temperatur e-dependent instrum ent
fan control is also implemented:
The individual module temperatures are polled by the FRONT
MODULE CONTROLLER of the CMU. This inf ormation is passed on
via the DIGITAL BOARD to the fan control with the aid of a control
signal. The instrument fan is controlled such that an optimum m odule
temperature is achieved on the one hand and as little noise as possible
is emitted by the fan on the other hand.
MOTHERBOARD2
FRONTPANEL BOARD
REARPANEL BOARD1
1100.4903.823.7E-4
The MOTHERBOARD2 serves for supply and connection of the
modules located higher at the side, the REFERENCE BOARD and a
further option.
For connection with MOTHERBOARD1 two 50-pin ribbon cables are
used.
The FRONTPANEL BOARD is located at the front of the instrument
frame and accommodates the external interfaces DATA1, DATA2,
AUX3 and SPEECH. Besides, the six LEDs for the dis play of the ac tive
RF inputs/outputs are located there.
For connection with MOTHERBOARD1 a 50-pin ribbon cable is used.
The REARPANEL BOARD1 is screwed to the integrated rear panel of
the CMU below the POWER SUPPLY and accomm odates the external
interfaces IEEE, LPT, COM1, COM2, monitor and keyboard.
For connection with MOTHERBOARD1 two 34-pin ribbon cables are
used.
Instrument Design and Function DescriptionCMU
REARPANEL BOARD2
The REARPANEL BOARD2 is mounted to the right of the integrated
and unscrewable rear panel plate and accommodates the interfaces
SERVICE, AUX, AUX4 as well as further spare interfaces. For
connection with MOTHERBOARD1 two 34-pin ribbon cables are used.
REFERENCE BOARD
The REFERENCE BOARD provides all required cloc k signals (NET CLK1/2) and reference frequencies
(110.8 MHz) as well as the +5 VDC reference voltage for the CMU. The REFERENCE BOARD is a
plug-in module in HVC design.
Design
Connection
REFERENCE
frequency generation
At the top of the module, nine MMCX connectors are attached, which
serve as inputs or outputs for various clock signals and are routed to the
respective modules or the integrated rear panel with appropriate coax
cables.
Two holes in the HVC panel at the top are used for adjusting the
+5 VDC reference voltage and the 10 MHz TCXO reference frequency.
The plug-in module REFERENCE BOARD is ins erted in the CMU on the
right side on MOTHERBOARD2 using a 48-pin FUTURE-bus connector.
All frequencies provided by the CMU are derived from internal highprecision 10-MHz reference elem ents (TCXO or optional OCXO ) or f rom
externally applied frequencies.
A 110.8-MHz crystal oscillator is coupled in locked phase relation in a
PLL loop with the selected reference.
The reference element TCXO is used as standard on the reference
board. If the option OCXO (CMU-B11 or -B12) is installed in the CMU, it
is automatically used as reference element and the standard TCXO is
switched off.
It is additionally possible to switch over to external synchronization (see
operating manual, 4.34 Connection Control-Synch.) and use the signal
fed in at the BNC connector REFIN at the rear of the CMU as reference
signal.
At the BNC connector REFOUT1 at the rear of the CMU, either the
internal 10-MHz reference frequency or the signal applied at REFIN can
be buffered and tapped depending on the selected reference element.
The 110.8-MHz sinewave signal of the crystal oscillator passes a
harmonics filter, is buffered and provided at three MMXC connectors,
serving as reference frequency for the RXTX BOARD1/2 and the
DIGITAL BOARD.
At a further MMCX connector, the T T L signal RESFREQ is available with
27.7 MHz (110.8 MHz / 4) for the option CMU-B41
AUDIO-GEN. + ANA. as clock signal.
Netclock generation
1100.4903.823.8E-4
The REFERENCE BOARD is also used for netclock generation,
providing adjustable TTL cloc k frequencies from 21 MHz to 84 MHz with
a very fine frequency resolution of 0.1 Hz. This function is provided twice
so that two independent netclock frequencies are available at the s ame
time.
The signal generated by the 110.8-MHz crystal oscillator is divided by
three and applied to a DDS circuit (Direct Digital Synthesis). The DDS
circuit is used as a fine-adjustable frequency divider and generates a
divided signal from 9 MHz to 12 MHz.
This signal is then used in a fur ther PLL as nominal value f or the phase
detector in order to tune a VCO (Voltage Controlled Oscillator) with a
CMUInstrument Design and Function Description
tuning range of 84 MHz to 168 MHz in locked phase relation.
A fractional divider used in the feedback of the PLL provides the actual
value for the phase detector.
The output signal of the VCO is divided by two or four, buffered and
provided at the MMCX connector NETCLK 1 or NETCLK 2 and serves as
network-specific TTL clock for the DIGITAL BOARD.
Option OCXO REFERENCE OSC. CMU-B11 or B12
This option consists of a printed circuit board with the reference elem ent OCXO (oven-controlled c rystal
oscillator), the control circuit and a potentiometer for adjusting the OCXO.
Installation
Connection
The options CMU-B11 and B12 are basically of the same design. The two options only differ from eac h
other in the technical data of the OCXO such as aging and frequency drift.
The option OCXO REFERENCE OSC. is installed on the right side
below the instrument fan such that the potentiometer is easily
accessible from outside without the need for opening the CMU tube.
The option OCXO is directly inserted via a 10-pin connector on the
MOTHERBOARD and screwed to the module support by means of
three screws.
RF FRONTEND
Design
Cooling system
The printed circuit board of the RF FRONTEND is installed in a silvercoated aluminum casing which is screwed to the instrument frame. The
RF FRONTEND is fitted at the right fr ont of the CMU s uch that the four
RF N-type connectors which are directly connected to the FRONTEND
board are accessible on the front of the instrument fr ame of the CMU.
This is absolutely necessary to ensure a good VSWR (Voltage
Standing Wave Ratio).
The aluminum casing in which the RF FRONTEND is installed is
equipped with cooling fins in a special cooling duct and an extra
temperature-controlled fan f or heat dissipation if high RX power is fed
in.
Control and supply
RF connectors
1100.4903.823.9E-4
Control and supply of the RF FRONTEND are effected from
MOTHERBOARD1 via a 34-pin ribbon cable.
For the internal RF connection to the RXTX BOARD1 (RFRX1,
RFTX1) two SMA screw connections and coaxial solid-jacket cables
are used. Thus a high-quality RF connection is ensured.
Besides, two further internal RF connections (RFRX2, RFT X2) to the
optional RXTX BOARD2 are available.
Two bidirectional monitor inputs/outputs (RFRXTXAUX1/2) at the RF
FRONTEND permit to connect further RF devices via optional cables
leading to the integrated rear panel of the CMU.
As external RF interface, the RF FRO NT END is equipped with the f our
N-type connectors RF1, RF2, RF3OUT, RF4IN, which permit to
Instrument Design and Function DescriptionCMU
perform all the RF measurements of the CMU.
RF1 and RF2 are bidirectional inputs/outputs depending on the setting
and measurement application.
RF3OUT is a unidirectional output.
RF4IN is a unidirectional input.
Optical indication
Functions
For optical indication of the selected N-connectors and input and/or
output functions, yellow LEDs located above the N-connectors are
switched on.
On the transmitter side (TX), the RF F RONTEND serves the purpose
of distributing internal RF signals to the outside to the various Nconnectors (RF1, RF2, RF3OUT) and attenuate or amplify them
according to the selected output and level.
On the receiver side (RX), its purpose is to internally distribute ex ternal
RF signals from the dif ferent N-connectors (RF1, RF2, RF3OUT ) and
attenuate or amplify them according to the selected input and the
applied level.
Since high levels and powers up to 50 W can be f ed in on the receiver
side (RX), the RF FRONTEND is equipped with power attenuators and
the cooling system with the fan described above, which is contr olled by
the temperature at the power attenuators.
The RF FRONTEND additionally features two broadband power
measuring diodes, which perm it to measure the power applied at the
N-connectors RF1, RF2, RF4IN even in pulsed operation.

Design
Cooling system
Control and supply
Complete function
Transmitter functions
The RXTX BOARD1 is des igned as plug- in module with a silver-coated
two-shell aluminum casing fixed with several screws.
This casing is equipped with cooling fins at the front and rear which are
provided with a cover sheet each so that two special c ooling ducts are
produced. These cooling ducts ar e evenly cooled by the air flow of the
instrument fan irrespective of neighboring modules.
This efficient cooling is required since a very high degree of integration
and a large portion of fast RF com ponents are implemented on this
board.
Control and voltage supply of the RXTX BOARD1 are effected via a
96-pin FUTURE-bus connector from MOTHERBOARD1.
For conversion from RF to IF, the transm itter side (T X) is im plem ented
on one side of the multilayer PC board and the receiver side (RX) on
the other side on the RXTX BOARD1. This strict separation of the
functions permits to achieve high decouplings as they can usually only
be achieved with two separate modules.
On the transmitter side (T X), an IF s ignal with 13.85 MHz is applied at
the MMCX connector IF3TX1 ( top of module) of the RXTX BO ARD1,
which is provided by the DIGITAL BOARD.
On the RXTX BOARD1, this signal is taken via various amplifier
stages, attenuator pads and filters and finally set to the desired RF
1100.4903.823.10E-4
CMUInstrument Design and Function Description
frequency by means of triple signal conversion (IF3, IF2, IF1). This is
necessary to obtain a high image-frequency rejection.
At the TX output, a switchable attenuator with fine stepping and large
attenuation range is used to set the RF signal am plitude according to
the level selected.
The RF signal is finally taken to the RF FRONTEND at the SMA
connector RFTX1 (bottom of module).
The transmitter s ide is provided with an extra LO1T X (Local Oscillator )
with large tuning range and very fine frequency resolution used for
setting the desired transmitter frequency, an LO2 fixed-frequency
oscillator shared with the receiver side and an extra LO3T X with small
tuning range. All LOs are synchronized by the MMCX connector
110.8MHz at the bottom of the module with the reference frequency
from the REFERENCE BOARD.
Besides, an MMCX connector at the top of the RXTX BOARD1 is
designed as input with the second transmitter IF (RESIF2TX) which is
activated via software switches.
Receiver functions
On the receiver side (RX), the RF s ignal is f ed in at the SMA c onnector
RFRX1 (bottom of module) of the RXTX BOARD1 which is pr ovided by
the RF FRONTEND.
On the RXTX BOARD1, this signal is taken via a switchable attenuator
with fine stepping and large attenuation range in order to match the
level according to the level applied.
Subsequently, this signal is converted to an IF frequency of 10.7 MHz
by means of triple signal conversion (IF1, IF2, IF3) and several filter
and amplifier stages and provided at the MMCX connector IF3RX1 (top
of module) for the DIGITAL BOARD.
This procedure is necessary to achieve a high image-frequency
rejection and a high dynamic range with a simultaneously high
intermodulation suppression.
For the receiver side, an extra LO1RX ( local os cillator) is provided with
a large tuning range and a very fine frequency resolution used for
setting the receive frequency, an LO2 fixed-frequenc y oscillator shared
with the transmitter and an extra LO3RX with a very small tuning
range.
All LOs are synchronized by the MMCX connector 110.8 MHz at the
bottom of the module with the reference frequency from the
REFERENCE BOARD.
A further MMCX connector RESIF3RX (top of module) provides a
buffered RX IF signal of 10.7 MHz which is taken to the rear of the
CMU via a coax cable. This signal output can be activated via a
software swi tch.
Besides, an MMCX connector at the top of the RXTX BOARD1 is
designed as output with the second receiver IF (RESIF2RX) which can
be activated via software switches.
Correction processor
1100.4903.823.11E-4
The RXTX BOARD1 contains an ex tra correction processor with large
flash PROM.
It controls all the static and dynamic settings on the RXT X BOARD1
and, as a special feature, also the attenuator pads and amplifiers of the
RX and TX attenuator on the RF FRONTEND.
Besides, the correction processor permits to read out the individual
module error data from the EEPROMS of the respective m odules in a
so-called correction procedure (automatic module data adjustment)
and calculate the deviations for all possible signal paths. These
Instrument Design and Function DescriptionCMU
deviations are stored as correction values in the flash PROM. The
correction processor then sets the desired level settings, corrected by
the correction values, in the flash PROM so that frequency, linearity
and temperature responses of the modules are compensated for.
This ensures the excellent level accuracy of the CMU which is
essential for most measurements.
Extension
The CMU 200 can be extended by a RXTX BOARD2 and thus provide
a second complete transmit and receive channel.
DIGITAL BOARD
The DIGITAL BOARD constitutes the central contr ol and measurement board which c ontains all circuit
parts for conversion and further processing of the analog IF (receiver side) into digital I/Q values.
On the transmitter side, analog as well as digital I/Q values are modulated upon the c arr ier and pr ovided
as analog IF.
Design

Control and supply
The DIGITAL BOARD is designed as HVC 200 plug-in module. The
HVC 200 cabinet is equipped with a screwed-on cover both at the front
and rear to ensure optimum electrical shielding of the module.
The casing is provided with ventilation holes on the right and left in
order to produce a large cooling flow through the m odule by means of
the instrument fan.
This efficient cooling is necessary, since a great number of highly
integrated fast digital devices is used on the m odule and up to eight
sandwich modules can additionally be fitted so that the board is
densely packed.
The control, bus lines and voltage supply of the DIGIT AL BOARD are
effected via four 96-pin and one 48-pin FUTURE-bus connectors from
MOTHERBOARD1.

On the DIGITAL BOARD, all necessary clocks are generated and
provided from the netclocks 1 and 2 in a clock conditioning and
distribution circuit. These c lock s are r equired fo r s am pling, f iltering and
down converting the digital IF internally and for the UNIVERSAL
SIGNALLING UNIT MODULE.
Besides, two programmable logic devices (FPGA) are used on the
DIGITAL BOARD, which provide address decoding, interrupt control
and host interfaces between ISA bus and internal circuit parts
(DDC/TXDSP) as well as the control of the RF FRONTEND (via FEI
Bus), the REFERENCE BOARD and AUDIO BOARD (via buffered ISA
bus) and the RXTX BOARD1 (via s erial bus). Further s erial interfaces
lead from the programmable logic devices to the UNIVERSAL
SIGNALLING UNIT1 and vice versa.
An AD converter on the DIGITAL BOARD is used for polling the
diagnostic voltages of the CMU modules, which can indicate module
states and errors.
The sandwich ADC MODULE1 is connected to the DIGIT AL BOARD
via a multipoint connector. In addition, it is s crewed to a solid ground

(RX DSP) with further evaluation of the digital I/Q data for
measurement purposes. Besides, the digital I/Q data are passed on via
the MOTHERBOARD1 to the LINKHANDLER MODULE for evaluation.
The sandwich TXDSP MODULE1 is directly plugged onto the DIGITAL
BOARD via two multipoint connectors. It contains the DSP on the
transmitter side (TXDSP), which generates I/Q data according to the
application and provides them to the AUC MODULE1 via two 12-bit
D/A converters and several selection switches located on the DIGITAL
BOARD.
The sandwich AUC MODULE1 is directly plugged onto the DIGITAL
BOARD via a multipoint connector and serves the purpose of filtering
the analog I/Q data from the TXDSP MO DULE1 or the LINKHANDLER
MODULE depending on the position of the selection switches on the
DIGITAL BOARD according to the application (bandwidth shaping) and
converting it to the transmit IF (13.85 MHz) by means of an I/Q
