6 Analog/Digital IF Troubleshooting
What You Will Find in This Chapter
The following information is presented in this chapter:
1. Theory of operation of the IF section.
2. Isolating the cause of a hardware problem by verifying the functionality of
assemblies in the IF section signal path.
The analyzer can have one of three sets of IF hardware installed. The standard
25 MHz BW IF hardware supports analysis bandwidths up to 25 MHz. The
optional 40 MHz BW IF hardware supports analysis bandwidths up to 40 MHz.
The 40 MHz IF hardware is installed if any of the following options are installed:
— B40, 40 MHz Analysis Bandwidth
— MPB, Microwave Preselector Bypass
— DP2, Digital Processor & 2 GB Capture Memory
The ≥ 85 MHz BW IF hardware supports analysis bandwidths up to 160 MHz. It
also includes the 40 MHz BW IF hardware.
NOTE The following sections provide for each assembly a description of how the
assembly works and then gives information to help you troubleshoot the
assembly. Each description explains the purpose of the assembly, describes
the main components, and lists external connections to the assembly.
