CMRR verification
Common Mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR) is the ability of the Balanced U8903B input channel
to reject in-phase noise.
This test verifies the CMRR performance of the U8903B analyzer by using a calibrator to
generate a sine wave to the U8903B for the CMRR measurement to ensure that it is within
the published specification.
1 The BNC male-to-female T splitter and modified BNC coaxial cables with one end a
BNC connector (male) and the other end a XLR connector (male) with pin 2 and 3
shorted to carry the same signal is used for this connection. Refer to “Modify a Cable
for the U8903B CMRR test” on page 162.
2 Connect the calibrator to the U8903B input channels to be tested via the Balanced
connection as shown in Figure 3-6. Preset both the U8903B and calibrator.

3 Configure the calibrator as follows:
– Output state: Standby
4 Configure the U8903B input channel 1 (3, 5, or 7) and channel 2 (4, 6, or 8) to be tested
as follows:
– Connection type: Balanced
– Input bandwidth: 90 kHz
– Input coupling: DC
