3-6 Spurious Response (Second Harmonic Distortion) Spectrum Analyzer Performance Verification
3-10 PN: 10580-00303 Rev. D Model MS20xxB MM
3-6 Spurious Response (Second Harmonic Distortion)
The following test is used to verify the input related spurious response of the spectrum analyzer in the
MS2034B and MS2035B.
Equipment Required
• Synthesized Signal Generator, Anritsu Model MS3692X
• K(m) to N(f) Adapter, Anritsu Model 34RKNF50
• 10 MHz Reference Standard
• RF Coaxial Cable, Anritsu Model 15NN50-1.5C
• 50 MHz Low Pass Filter, Anritsu part number 1030-96
• BNC(m) to BNC(m) Coaxial Cable, Anritsu part number 2000-1627-R
Procedure
1. Connect the BNC Coaxial Cable between the 10 MHz Reference Standard output and the 10 MHz Ref In
connector of the Anritsu MG3692X Synthesized Signal Generator.
2. Turn both the 10 MHz Reference Standard and the Synthesized Signal Generator on.
3. Set the MG3692X output to 50.1 MHz CW, with an RF output level of –30 dBm.
