Detector Selection
The Select Detect, softkey provides selection between the HP 11848A
Phase Detectors. Verify that the selected Phase Detector is:
• Within the frequency range of the Detector/Discr. Input Frequency
entered.
• Installed in the HP 11848A Phase Noise Interface. (Option 201 adds
the 1.2 to 18 GHz Phase Detector to the HP 11848A).
External Detectors
Using an External Phase Detector to measure a device with fundamental
frequency less than 5 MHz or greater than 18 GHz requires special
considerations. The HP 3048A limits the Detector/Disc. Input Frequency
range to from 5 MHz to 18 GHz. If you are measuring a device that
exceeds the limits of the Detector/Disc. Input Frequency, enter a frequency
of less than 95 MHz for a device with a frequency of less than 5 MHz to
enable the 2 MHZ LPF, or enter a frequency of greater than 95 MHz for a
device with a frequency greater than 18 GHz to remove the 2 MHZ LPF.
Also when measuring frequencies less than 5 MHz you must filter out the
fundamental feedthrough and additive product prior to the HP 11848A
Noise Input. This is necessary to prevent overloading.
