Outputs
Auxiliary Output
Provides an unmodulated reference signal from 2 to 26.5 GHz
at a typical minimum power level of -10
dBm.
Nominal output
impedance 50 ohms. (SMA female, rear panel.)
RF Output
Nominal output impedance 50 ohms. (Precision 3.5 mm male on 20
and 26.5 GHz models, 2.4 mm male on 40 and 50
GHz
models, front
panel.)
External ALC Input
Used for negative external detector or power meter leveling. Nominal
input impedance 120
kR,
damage level
f15
volts. See RF output
specifications. (BNC female, front panel.)
Trigger Input
Activated on a TTL rising edge. Used to externally initiate an analog
sweep or to advance to the next point in step or list mode. Damage
level
f5.5,
-0.5 volts. (BNC female, rear panel.)
Trigger Output
Outputs a one-microsecond-wide TTL-level pulse at 1601 points
evenly spaced across an analog sweep, or at each point in step or list
mode. (BNC female, rear panel.)
30
MHz Reference Input
Accepts 10 MHz
ltlO0
Hz, 0 to
+lO
dBm
reference signal for
operation from external time base. Nominal input impedance 50
ohms. Damage level
+lO,
-5 volts. (BNC female, rear panel.)
10 MHz Reference Output
Nominal signal level 0
dBm,
nominal output impedance 50 ohms.
(BNC female, rear panel.)
Sweep Output
Supplies a voltage proportional to the sweep ranging from 0 volts
at start of sweep to
+lO
volts at end of sweep, regardless of sweep
width. In CW mode, voltage is proportional to percentage of full
instrument frequency range. Minimum load impedance 3 kilohms.
Accuracy
f0.25%,
510
mV,
typical. (BNC female, rear panel.)
Stop Sweep Input/Output
Sweep will stop when grounded externally. TTL-high while
sweeping, TTL-low when HP 8360 stops sweeping. Damage level
+5.5,
-0.5 volts. (BNC female, rear panel.)
