Special Munting & Envirnmental Cnditins 5. Unique Test Requirements & Data Des Weinschel ffer any attenuatrs with IM3 specified? Yes Aerflex / Weinschel has recently intrduced new as well as updated mdels specifically fr applicatins requiring lw intermdulatin distrtin. Mdels are available with the lw IM ptins are...24, 33, 40, 45, 46, 47, 48, 48, 53, 57, & 58. Refer t the page 17 fr a prduct line verview r the specific data sheet fr IM3 details. Hw is the temperature r pwer cefficient specificatin applied? These specificatins tell hw much the attenuatin will change when the ambient temperature r input pwer changes. First multiply the catalg temperature cefficient r pwer cefficient by the ambient temperature range r input pwer range t which the attenuatr will be expsed. Then multiply that number by the db value f the attenuatr. The result is the maximum change in attenuatin than can be expected ver the ambient temperature range r pwer range that was specified. Hw is the attenuatr pwer rating calculated? An attenuatr will handle specified pwer at ambient temperatures as specified in the catalg. N special fan cling is required. At higher temperatures the pwer rating is calculated by using catalg specificatins and a straight line graph (Example shwn abve). Fr instance the pwer rating f the Mdel 48 attenuatr is 100 watts t 25 C and 10 watts at 125 C. Using linear graph paper, plt a straight line between these tw pints. This plt shws that the pwer rating at 75 C is apprximately 56 Watts. 30 db attenuatin values. Each attenuatr is tested in 1 GHz intervals t minimize interplatin errr. The attenuatr sets are available in stainless steel type N (Mdel 1 & 44), and 3.5mm (Mdel 56) cnnectrs. Custm sets with ther cnnectr type and higher pwer sets are als available upn request. Refer t page 60 fr mre details. What is Third-Order Intermdulatin Distrtin? (IM3) Intermdulatin distrtin (IM) cnsists f the spurius signals which result frm the mixing f nth rder frequencies in the nn-linear elements f a cmpnent. Third rder intermdulatin distrtin is f particular interest because third rder prducts typically represent the highest level distrtin appearing clse t the desired signal, and as such the highest level nn-filterable distrtin. Third rder IM level (IM3) is tested by injecting tw pure tnes f equal magnitude (f1 and f2) int the cmpnent t be tested. The third rder IM prducts will appear in the utput spectrum at the frequencies 2f1-f2 and 2f2-f1. These prducts are characterized by defining their level (in dbc) relative t the fundamental utput tnes at either f1 r f2. Applicatins... Aerflex / Weinschel Attenuatrs are used in a wide variety f applicatins in the electrnic field fr the cntrl r measurement f radi frequency energy. Attenuatrs are used as accurate standards in the measurement f lss r gain by the RF substitutin methd. They are used as a means f extending the dynamic range f measuring equipment such as pwer meters, field intensity meters, spectrum analyzers, and amplifiers, r t prevent verlading f receivers and amplifiers. They als reduce, by masking, the effects f variable r mismatched impedances n such circuit elements as scillatr, T-junctins, mixers, etc. Fixed Attenuatrs can satisfy almst any requirement invlving a reductin in pwer.

64 Variable Attenuatrs Frequently Asked Questins abut Variable & Manual Step Attenuatrs... What are the applicatins fr Weinschel s variable/ manual step attenuatrs? Cntinuusly Variable Attenuatrs are used in applicatins where the need exists fr cntrlling signal levels cntinuusly withut interrupting the circuit. Mst Weinschel mdels are in linear scales, and have lw frequency sensitivity with brad frequency cverage, resulting frm the use f prven Aerflex / Weinschel resistive films. The resistive elements lcated in these Variable Attenuatrs prvide lng-term stability ver temperature and humidity. Manual Step Attenuatrs are primarily used in areas demanding bradband accuracy with lw SWR and accurate repeatability ver large attenuatin ranges. The Weinschel Step Attenuatrs utilize the excellent perfrmance characteristics f the Weinschel fixed caxial attenuatrs. The Weinschel step attenuatrs are widely used in many types f ATE and OEM systems perating thrughut the wrld. Aerflex / Weinschel ffers a selectin f different attenuatin ranges and frequency ranges t t select frm. These range frm 0 t 10 db in 1 db steps up t 0 t 100 db in 10 db steps and frequency ranges frm dc t 40 GHz. High vlume fabricatin techniques, including injectin mlding, stamping, braching and thick film printing ensure a cst effective and unifrm prduct. What types f variable attenuatrs des Weinschel ffer? There are several designs f cntinuusly variable attenuatr available in the marketplace: Pistn, card, tee, and resistive center cnductr. Weinschel ffers nly the Variable Card Attenuatr Design. Weinschel s 940 series uses a card resistr n a disk with a mvable caxial cntact (shwn belw) similar in nature t a ptentimeter and prvides an incremental range f 114 db incremental range at 2 GHz and 60 db at 4 GHz. Because the shunt film is cnnected t grund permanently, in rder t achieve the extended attenuatin range, the minimum lss f this type attenuatr is higher (4 t 6 db). What is the difference between insertin lss and incremental attenuatin? Step and variable attenuatrs have insertin lss and als incremental attenuatin. Insertin lss is the lss thrugh the attenuatr when all cells are switched t zer db. It is the residual lss f the device itself. Insertin lss usually increases with frequency reaching several db at the higher frequencies and generally has very flat frequency respnse. Incremental attenuatin is the attenuatin values f the attenuatrs cells relative t the insertin lss. Since insertin lss is always present, the perfrmance f a step r variable attenuatr is always given as incremental attenuatin relative t insertin lss. Insertin lss is cnsidered part f the fixed perfrmance f the system path in which the step r variable attenuatr is lcated. web: sales@aerflex-weinschel.cm Revisin Date: 12/15/04 63

83 Prgrammable Attenuatrs Frequently Asked Questins abut Prgrammable Attenuatrs... What are the applicatins f Aerflex / Weinschel prgrammable attenuatrs? Aerflex / Weinschel's prgrammable attenuatrs are used t cntrl the pwer f radi frequency and micrwave signals. Applicatins include cntrl f input pwer t signal measuring systems, cntrl f utput pwer frm signal generating systems, adjustment pwer fr BIT errr rate testing, cntrlling lsses in a signal path and simulating the signal fading f a micrwave cmmunicatin system...t name just a few. Hw d they wrk? Aerflex / Weinschel's prgrammable attenuatrs cnsist f a series f attenuatin pads (cells) that are selectively inserted int the signal path via a cntrl signal. An example is a series f cells such as 1, 2, 4, 8 and 16 db arranged in a binary sequence. Such an attenuatr is called a binary attenuatr. Cmbinatins f cells are switched "n" t prvide attenuatin steps frm 0 db t 31 db. Anther example is a unit having cell values f 10, 20 and 40 db which will prvide 10 db steps between 0 db and 70 db. Hw are the attenuatrs switched? The basic structure f a prgrammable attenuatr is shwn belw. There are several ways the attenuatr pads are switched in and ut f the RF path. Aerflex / Weinschel's 3200 series uses TO-5 can relay switches. These are useful up t 2.0 GHz and higher. Aerflex / Weinschel's 150 series perate up t 26.5 GHz and utilize reed switches hused within a precisin machined cavity. Aerflex / Weinschel als manufactures prgrammable attenuatrs using slid state switching that ffers faster switching speeds but their frequency range is mre limited than mechanical step attenuatrs. Whereas mechanically switched attenuatrs perate frm DC t their maximum frequency, slid state attenuatrs have a lwer frequency limit. Slid state attenuatrs als have lwer islatin between cntrl and thrugh path. Hw fast d the attenuatrs switch? Switching speed f mechanically switched attenuatrs is typically between 6 and 35 msec. This is the maximum time between the applicatin f the switching cmmand t the cell and the cessatin f cntact bunce. This time is a functin f switch structure and size. What is a latching and nn-latching attenuatr? Nn-latching is als called mmentary r fail-safe. Fr the nn-latching type, the attenuatr is switched t the attenuatin "n" psitin nly s lng as cntrl pwer is applied t the switch. As sn as pwer is remved the switch reverts t it passive state r fail-safe state...usually the zer db state. In latching attenuatrs each cell stays in the last setting even if pwer is remved. Latching attenuatrs have tw cntrl lines. One cntrl line causes the attenuatr t switch t the "attenuatin n" setting while the ther cntrl line causes the attenuatr t switch t the zer db setting. There is nrmally a permanent magnet that hlds the switch stable in either psitin. Each versin has its advantages and disadvantages. The nn-latching switch requires cnstant pwer t the slenid when in the "n" psitin. On the ther hand the latching versin requires greater switch current t vercme it's permanent magnet. Hw are the attenuatrs cntrlled? The Mdel 3200 Series nn-latching attenuatrs require nly ne 12 vlt cntrl line per cell. The directin f cntrl current is nt imprtant. The Series 3220 latching versins require tw cntrl lines per cell and the directin f the current is imprtant. The Mdel 150 Series is a latching versin using ne psitive 5 vlt r 24 vlt cmmn return line and tw grunding cntrl lines. In rder fr switching t be guaranteed the vltage between cmmn and cntrl must be held within specified limits. Pwer supply regulatin must be kept within range even while heavy switching current is being drawn. Any cable vltage drps must be added t the minimum cntrl vltage t btain the required pwer supply vltage at the attenuatr. Aerflex / Weinschel's prgrammable attenuatrs, such as the Mdel 3200T and 150T Series feature n-bard TTL drivers. TTL driver bards are als available fr the Mdel 150 Series attenuatrs. 82 web: sales@aerflex-weinschel.cm Revisin Date: 12/15/04

84 Prgrammable Attenuatrs What is the switch life f these prgrammable attenuatrs? Specified life fr mechanical switches is nrmally in the range f 1 t 10 millin switching. This specificatin is per switch, independent f the ther switches in the attenuatr. Fr the Mdel 150 series attenuatrs the specificatin is 5 millin cycles, i.e. ne cycle is the switch mving in bth directins. These specificatins are based n the mechanical life f the switch, hwever, ther factrs have an impact n attenuatr life. High pwer peratin can have an adverse effect n the switch cntact surfaces. This can reduce the verall life f the switch by causing the attenuatr perfrmance t g utside it's specificatin. What is mntnicity? A prgrammable step attenuatr is cnsidered mntnic if it's attenuatin always increases when it is cmmanded t increase. This applies n a per frequency basis. Fr instance the 20 db setting at 1 GHz will always be less than the 21 db setting at 1 GHz. This des nt necessarily mean that the 20 db setting at 1 GHz will always be less than the 21 db setting 18 GHz. Mntnicity is influenced by the SWR f the individual attenuatr cells as the cells are cmbined t frm an attenuatin value. It is als influenced by the summatin f individual cell attenuatin tlerances as the cells are cmbined. What is the difference between insertin lss and incremental attenuatin? Prgrammable attenuatrs have insertin lss and als incremental attenuatin. Insertin lss is the lss thrugh the attenuatr when all cells are switched t zer db. It is the residual lss f the device itself. Insertin lss usually increases with frequency reaching several db at the higher frequencies and generally has very flat frequency respnse. Incremental attenuatin is the attenuatin values f the attenuatrs cells relative t the insertin lss. Since insertin lss is always present, the perfrmance f a prgrammable attenuatr is always given as incremental attenuatin relative t insertin lss. Insertin lss is cnsidered part f the fixed perfrmance f the system path in which the prgrammable attenuatr is lcated. What is the advantages f Attenuatrs with built-in driver circuitry? These attenuatrs feature an internal micrcntrller-based driver that prvides a TTL-level digital interface fr cntrl f the attenuatr relays (Figure 1). This card simplifies peratin and interfacing requirements, while at the same time prviding fr greatly enhanced flexibility ver past designs. User-selectable mdes f peratin include bth parallel and serial bus. The parallel mde prvides a simple, ne-bit per relay n/ff cntrl with internal pullups fr use primarily in single attenuatr applicatins. This mde allws the attenuatr t be cntrlled via a variety f methds, such as a TTL-level digital utput prt, r mechanical tggle switches. The serial mde prvides a tw-wire serial bus structure and prtcl fr cnnecting a number f devices t a single hst cntrl interface, suitable fr use in larger system and sub-system applicatins. The built-in driver cntains nn-vlatile cnfiguratin memry that is used t hld a wide variety f attenuatr and driverdependent parameters, including serial number, attenuatr cell db values, relay cnfiguratins, and switching requirements, which are all accessible via the digital interface. This frees the system designer frm such lw-level details, allwing faster integratin. In either peratinal mde, the micrcntrller enters an idle cnditin during perids f inactivity, turning ff all n-bard clcks, reducing EMI cncerns, and lwering pwer cnsumptin. On-bard regulatin fr the digital circuitry allws the prgrammable attenuatr t perate frm a single input supply vltage.

85 Prgrammable Attenuatrs Intermdulatin Distrtin in Prgrammable Attenuatrs... Weinschel has been a majr supplier f prgrammable attenuatrs t the RF industry fr ver 25 years. Histrically the mst demanding specificatins fr these cmpnents have been lw insertin lss and SWR, cmbined with a reasnable life expectancy f several millin switching cycles. This was usually adequate fr RF instruments like spectrum analyzers and signal generatrs, wherein the attenuatr bandwidth rather than the switching speed was f prime cncern. T achieve wide bandwidths the prgrammable attenuatrs were mstly f electrmechanical design and the linearity f these passive cmpnents was nt nly assumed but never questined by any custmer. Intermdulatin distrtin discussins and prblems were usually limited t cmpnents such as amplifiers, mixers and filters. In recent years, hwever, wireless cmmunicatin systems emplying cmplex digital mdulatin schemes, increased channel capacity, high transmit pwer and extremely lw receiver sensitivity have put int questin the linearity f passive cmpnents. Even very lw level multi-tne intermdulatin prducts generated by attenuatrs can seriusly degrade the efficiency f a system/ instrument if these prducts fall within the user passband. Fr tw clsely spaced tnes at frequencies f1 and f2, the third rder IM prducts at 2f1 - f2 and 2f2 - f1, are the mst harmful distrtin prducts. They are harmful because they are lcated clse t f1 and f2 and virtually impssible t filter ut. In tday's base statins the multicarrier pwer amplifier (MCPA) is replacing banks f single-channel amplifiers and their crrespnding pwer cmbining netwrk. MCPAs have the capability f carrying a number f mdulatin schemes simultaneusly and can als emply schemes such as dynamic-channel-allcatin (DCA) t use the allcated frequency spectrum mre efficiently. The in-band intermdulatin distrtin (IMD) perfrmance f these amplifiers is extremely critical and needs t be measured using lw distrtin prgrammable multi-tne generatrs whse IMD perfrmance must be quite superir. This is discussed in the tw case studies cited here. Electrmechanical prgrammable attenuatrs bviusly prvide a far superir IMD perfrmance than their crrespnding slid state cunterparts emplying semicnductr switching elements. Hwever, their slw switch speed, in the rder f millisecnds, and shrt switch life in the rder f 5-10 millin cycles make them unattractive in sme applicatins like cell phne testing and ther ATE systems. Slid State prgrammable attenuatrs d vercme these tw prblems and are therefre included here fr IMD perfrmance cmparisn. It is nt the intent f this brief article t g int the thery f intermdulatin distrtin. The gal here is t prvide sme gd basic IMD test data fr a variety f cmmercial prgrammable attenuatrs and let the end user select the mst apprpriate type fr his applicatin. Measurement System and Parameters... All test data presented here was generated using a cmmercially available Passive IM Analyzer, Summitek Mdel SI-800A which prvides a fully integrated system fr characterizing distrtin prduced by cables, attenuatrs and ther passive devices. Althugh the system is capable f measuring bth, thrugh and reflected IM3, IM5, IM7 and IM9, the fcus here is nly n thrugh IM fr the mst trublesme third rder prduct, IM3. T carry ut a meaningful cmparisn between different attenuatrs all measurements were carried ut using tw equal amplitude input tnes at 869 MHz (f1) and 891 MHz(f2), the IM3 frequency being 847 MHz (2f1-f2). Input carrier pwer was stepped in increments f 1 db frm -7dBm t +27dBm. All external adapters and cables were carefully selected t maintain the system's residual IM level f arund -120 dbm. Althugh the system permitted receiver measurements between -70 t -120 dbm we restricted all measurements between -85 t -110 dbm by using a calibrated lw IM cupler and attenuatrs at the utput prt f the DUT. One must be aware that the accuracy f such small signal measurements can easily be ff by 2 t 3 db s restricting the measurement dynamic range helps reduce the receiver nn-linearity errr. Measurements were dne ver several days t ensure stability and repeatability. Distrtin Cmparisn fr Basic Types f Prgrammable Attenuatrs... The prgrammable attenuatrs discussed here are the switched type with a discrete number f `cells'. Switching between the zer and attenuate state n each cell is achieved by a DPDT switch cnfiguratin. The cell values are usually in a binary sequence. Fr example a 6 cell/6 bit unit culd have 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 and 32 db sectins prviding a 63 db dynamic range in 1dB increments. Fur basic families f prgrammable attenuatrs are cmpared, each family being identified by the switch element used t achieve the transfer frm zer t attenuate state. Fr the purpses f distrtin cmparisn it was deemed necessary t select units with similar electrical length and/r prgrammability. Bth the electrmechanical units, TO5 relay and edge-line type, had an electrical length f abut 20 cms. The tw slid state units had 6 cell prgrammability yielding 63 db in 1 db step size. All IM3 vs Pin measurements were dne with the attenuatrs prgrammed t be in their characteristic zer insertin lss state. The zer state was selected because it generated the highest IM3 levels.

86 Prgrammable Attenuatrs bvius cmprmise in IMD perfrmance fr the tw slid state types. It is wrth nting that the IM3 vs Pin slpe is nt exactly 3:1 as wuld be the case in a perfect third rder device. The theretical tw tne third rder intercept pint, IP3, cmmnly used as a figure f merit fr cmparing linearity is shwn in the fllwing table at tw different input pwer levels. The input IP3 is derived frm the fllwing relatin: Input IP3 = 3(Pin-α)-IM3 + α 2 where α = zer insertin lss f each 847 MHz, the IM3 frequency. IM3 and Pin are selected frm Table 1. TABLE 1.

87 Prgrammable Attenuatrs Case Study 1 Cmpany A ffers its IMD series Phase Aligned 8 tne generatrs t test intermdulatin distrtin in multi-carrier pwer amplifiers. The utput level f these generatrs is accurately cntrlled using a Weinschel TO5 relay based prgrammable attenuatr ffering ver 60 db dynamic range. Eight +13 dbm carriers are input t the attenuatr. In MCPAs with feedfrward crrectin, in-band IMD levels culd be as lw as -75 dbc s Cmpany A wanted at least -85 dbc at the utput f their generatr. The first prblem was that Weinschel culd nt simulate the exact test cnditins. This was readily reslved by establishing a gd c-relatin between ur tw tne IM3 measurement and Cmpany A's 8 tne test. Having emplyed the best plating techniques and using gd lw IM cnnectr design the attenuatr was still shrt f the required IMD spec. The final imprvement was achieved by extensive testing n relays frm three different manufacturers. Figure 2 shws IM3 plts f the tw best perfrmers. Manufacturer B cnsistently prvided a 4 t 5 db imprvement at the tw tne level at Pin f +22 dbm and higher. This crrespnded t an acceptable utput distrtin level fr the Cmpany A generatr.

Their units ffer up t 160 channels frm 5 MHz thrugh 1 GHz. Each carrier can be leveled as high as +10 dbm. One f their mst stringent requirements is a crss mdulatin test. The Cmpany B generatr specificatin is -100 db belw the sideband f a 100% amplitude mdulated carrier, which is -110 dbc. The actual cmpnents used in the critical path had t measure -120 dbc r better. Their generatr needed an ultra linear attenuatr t prvide a prgrammed utput level in 0.5 db increments. Relay based units were tested and fund t be unacceptable. The high perfrmance edge-line attenuatrs were expected t slve the prblem but at first they t fell shrt, but mainly in their zer attenuatin state, which generates maximum distrtin. Prir t supplying these units t Cmpany B n custmer had asked fr a distrtin specificatin n these suppsedly passive attenuatrs. Envirnmental perfrmance had warranted the use f nickel underplate n the edge lines. This was disclsed t the custmer and suspected t be the prime cause f high IMD levels. Since the unit was ging t be munted in a benign envirnment, eliminatin f the nickel underplate was nt thught t be a prblem. Figure 3 demnstrates the tremendus reductin in IM3 levels upn eliminatin f the nickel underplate-a significant 40 db! A further db imprvement was achieved by redesigning the cnnectrs t reduce their passive IMD. The IM imprvement in these cnnectrs wuld have served n purpse prir t the eliminatin f nickel. This is because the main surce f distrtin lay behind the cnnectr back plane, alng the edge transmissin line, which had a far greater electrical length than the tw cnnectrs.

This shuld enable instrument and system designers t select the mst suitable type fr their applicatin. The tw case studies have als demnstrated that an OEM cmpnent supplier cannt pssibly simulate the different distrtin test scenaris f every custmer. Such tests wuld be extremely varied, cmplex and cst prhibitive. The IM analyzer used at Weinschel was indeed a narrw band instrument and ne might be cncerned abut the unit's perfrmance at ther frequencies. This is a legitimate cncern fr the slid state types, in which the distrtin mechanism is a strng functin f the perating frequency. Fr the bradband electrmechanical types this is nt a majr issue. Hwever, with a meaningful tw tne intermdulatin measurement it is quite pssible t get an excellent crrelatin with the custmer's test cnditins and thereby cme up with a crrespnding specificatin under the tw tne test. It is helpful thugh, t be able t replicate the ttal pwer level that the unit wuld be subjected t in the field.

107 Prgrammable Attenuatrs Mdel 150 dc t 18.0 GHz Mdel 151 dc t 4.0 GHz Mdel 152 dc t 26.5 GHz Relay Switched Prgrammable Attenuatrs Descriptin The Mdel 150, 151 and 152 Prgrammable Step Attenuatrs represent the widest variety f prgrammable attenuatrs available. This attenuatr design is the result f an extensive develpment prgram and ffers lng reliable peratin with exceptinal accuracy and repeatability. These attenuatrs can prvide prgrammable adjustments f RF signal levels in precise steps f 1 db, 5 db, 10 db, r with custm steps available. Each attenuatr cnsists f a cascaded assembly f switched attenuatr cells (Figure 1). The attenuatr elements lcated in the attenuatr cell are created by a thin-film prcess which prvides exceptinal lng-term stability, lw pwer and temperature cefficients. This series uses a reed switching structure that prvides rapid switching tgether with lw insertin lss. Other features include: E X P R E S S Bradband Frequency Cverage High Accuracy and Repeatability Lng Life, 5 Millin Cycles Per Cell 3, 4, and 5 Cell Cnfiguratins Figure 1. Cell Schematic PROGRAMMABILITY: In each prgrammable step Attenuatr, slenids are used t switch the internal resistr card f each cell int and ut f the circuit. The switching is activated by the applicatin f a negative cntrl vltage t the desired pin lcated in the cntrl cnnectr. Once the cell is switched, the slenid is magnetically latched int psitin and is able t withstand extreme shck and vibratin. Internal circuitry is included t interrupt the cil current after switching is cmplete. This reduces pwer dissipatin even if pwer is cntinuusly applied. The switching time fr each cell is rated at 20 msec maximum which includes the cntact settling time. BROADBAND ACCURACY & LOW SWR: The use f Aerflex / Weinschel's prprietary thin-film resistr prcess prvides these prgrammable step attenuatrs with a high degree f accuracy and the lwest pssible SWR uncertainty (refer t specificatins fr actual values). This thin film prcess permits the cnstructin f circuits which are truly distributed and withut stray reactances, even at the higher micrwave frequencies. RELIABILITY: Each prgrammable step attenuatr is cmpsed f 3 t 5 (4 in mst mdels) cells. As with all mechanical designs, usable life becmes a primary cncern t the user. With this in mind Aerflex / Weinschel backs all these attenuatrs with a rated switch life f 5 millin peratins per cell. Standardized testing is als perfrmed n each prgrammable step attenuatr ver its perating frequency range by a cmputer cntrlled Aerflex / Weinschel Attenuatin Measurement System which is traceable t NIST standards. ENVIRONMENTAL: These Mdel 150 Prgrammable Step Attenuatrs have undergne an extensive envirnmental qualificatin prgram and have been subjected t temperature, shck, vibratin, and humidity cnditins per MIL-STD-202F. These prgrammable step attenuatrs perate within these specificatins at an ambient temperature f -20 t +75 C. Operating beynd these limits will adversely affect the accuracy and culd damage the internal circuitry.

151 Subsystems & Accessries Lw Intermdulatin Subsystems & Signal Cnditining Netwrks... Sme custm subsystem designs warrant the use f Lw Intermdulatin passive cmpnents such as prgrammable attenuatrs, terminatins, fixed attenuatrs, cuplers, cables, cnnectrs and switches. Aerflex / Weinschel is a leading manufacturer f the first three items. The fllwing paragraphs briefly describe the imprtance f lw intermdulatin and sme design features and cmparative test data fr the same. Prgrammable Attenuatrs Histrically the mst demanding specificatins fr prgrammable cmpnents and subsystems have been lw insertin lss and SWR, cmbined with a reasnable life expectancy f several millin switching cycles. This was usually adequate fr RF instruments like spectrum analyzers and signal generatrs, where the attenuatr bandwidth rather than the switching speed was f prime cncern. T achieve wide bandwidths, the prgrammable attenuatrs were mstly f electrmechanical design and the linearity f these passive cmpnents was nly taken fr granted. Intermdulatin distrtin discussins and prblems were usually limited t cmpnents such as amplifiers, mixers and filters. In recent years, hwever, wireless cmmunicatin systems emplying cmplex digital mdulatin schemes, increased channel capacity, high transmit pwer and extremely lw receiver sensitivity have put int questin the linearity f passive cmpnents. Even very lw level multi-tne intermdulatin prducts generated by attenuatrs can seriusly degrade the efficiency f a system/instrument if these prducts fall within the user passband. Fr tw clsely spaced tnes at frequencies f1 and f2, the third rder IM prducts at 2f1 - f2 and 2f2 - f1, are the mst harmful distrtin prducts. They are harmful because they are clse t f1 and f2 and virtually impssible t filter ut. In tday's base statins the multi-carrier pwer amplifier (MCPA) is replacing banks f single-channel amplifiers and their crrespnding pwer cmbining netwrk. MCPAs have the capability f carrying a number f mdulatin schemes simultaneusly and can als emply schemes such as dynamic channel allcatin (DCA) t use the allcated frequency spectrum mre efficiently. The in-band intermdulatin distrtin (IMD) perfrmance f these amplifiers is extremely critical and needs t be measured using lw distrtin prgrammable multi-tne generatrs with superir IMD perfrmance. Thrugh IM3 (dbm) IM3 Perfrmance f Electrmechanical & Slid State Prgrammable Attenuatrs Passive IM3 Measurement Weinschel Series 4206, 4216, 3200 & 150 Lw Carrier Frequency: MHz High Carrier Frequency: MHz IM3 Frequency: MHz PIN switched series FET switched series TO5 rela y switched series Edge-line reed switched 150 series Input Pwer, P in (dbm) each tne Electrmechanical prgrammable attenuatrs bviusly prvide a far superir IMD perfrmance than their crrespnding slid state cunterparts emplying semicnductr switching elements. Hwever, their slw switch speed, in the rder f milli-secnds, and shrt switch life in the rder f 5-10 millin cycles make them unattractive in sme applicatins like cell phne testing and ther ATE systems. Slid State prgrammable attenuatrs d vercme these tw prblems and are, therefre, included here fr IMD perfrmance cmparisn. The gal is t prvide sme gd basic IMD test data fr a variety f cmmercial prgrammable attenuatrs and permit the end user t select the mst apprpriate type fr his system applicatin. Fixed Attenuatrs & Terminatins These seemingly linear cmpnents generate lw levels f IMD which must be cnsidered, especially when incident pwer levels are high. Sme f Aerflex / Weinschel custm subsystem designs include lw IM versins f medium and high pwer fixed attenuatrs and terminatins. These cmpnents are supplied with specified 3rd rder thrugh and reflected intermdulatin levels (IM3) measured with a passive IM analyzer. Typically, the IM3 levels fr these cmpnents are -110 dbc. Standard Mdels with this LIM (lw IM) ptin are mdels 33, 24, 49, 53, 57, 58 and the crrespnding terminatins, ranging in incident pwer ratings f 25 t 500 Watts. Features f these cmpnents include specifically designed cnnectrs and carefully prcessed and trimmed thin film resistrs fr lw IM perfrmance. Cuplers, Cables, Switches, Cnnectrs, etc. Fr these ther passive cmpnents Aerflex / Weinschel wrks very clsely with ur suppliers, prviding them pertinent design input t achieve the lwest pssible IMD perfrmance n such prducts. 150 web: sales@aerflex-weinschel.cm Revisin Date: 12/15/04

Mst Aerflex / Weinschel Crpratin Terminatins & Lads can be supplied accrding t custmer specified testing, envirnmental r military r gvernment specificatin requirements. What is Third-Order Intermdulatin Distrtin? (IM3) Intermdulatin distrtin (IM) cnsists f the spurius signals which result frm the mixing f nth rder frequencies in the nn-linear elements f a cmpnent. Third rder intermdulatin distrtin is f particular interest because third rder prducts typically represent the highest level distrtin appearing clse t the desired signal, and as such the highest level nn-filterable distrtin. Third rder IM level (IM3) is tested by injecting tw pure tnes f equal magnitude (f1 and f2) int the cmpnent t be tested. The third rder IM prducts will appear in the utput spectrum at the frequencies 2f1-f2 and 2f2-f1. These prducts are characterized by defining their level (in dbc) relative t the fundamental utput tnes at either f1 r f2. Des Aerflex / Weinschel ffer any f terminatins with IM3 specified? Yes, Aerflex / Weinschel has recently intrduced new as well as updated mdels specifically fr applicatins requiring lw intermdulatin distrtin. These mdels are available in 25, 50, 150 Watt varieties.

158 Terminatins & Lads Hw d I select a terminatin fr my applicatin? Terminatin applicatins exist in almst every phase f micrwave technlgy frm design and measurement t systems. Gd terminatins are an indispensable aid in making bench measurements n micrwave cmpnents in the engineering labratry, as thse prts f a multiprt micrwave device which are nt invlved in the measurement shuld be terminated in their characteristic impedance in rder t ensure an accurate measurement. Many micrwave systems emply directinal cuplers which require terminatins n at least ne prt, and mst have varius mdes f peratin r test where terminatins are needed n certain terminals. A matched terminatin f a generalized transmissin line is ideally represented by an infinite length f that line having small, but nn-zer lss per unit length s that all incident energy is absrbed and nne is reflected. Althugh this type f matched lad (terminatin) was actually used extensively during the early explratin f high frequencies where the wavelength was shrt enugh fr the methd t be emplyed, mre efficient and practical types f terminatin have been develped. There are several ways in which a matched terminatin fr a 50-hm caxial line may be realized. Sme f these are shwn belw. Illustratin A f the Figure shws a crss-sectin f caxial line terminated in a lumped 50-hm series resistr which is a shrt length f resistive film n a cylindrical ceramic substrate. Illustratin B is similar t A except that the 50-hm resistr is a film n a ceramic disc and appears in shunt with the pen f the caxial line. Mre effective matched lads fr very high frequencies are shwn in illustratin C and D. The uter cnductr in the design f illustratin C is tapered in either an expnential r a tractrix curve frm the regin near the start f the resistive film n the inner cnductr t the end f the resistr. The design f illustratin t these parameters, it is usually necessary t specify the shaped ceramic bdy extending frm the inner cnductr. The advantage f this design is that it dissipates mre pwer. Aerflex / Weinschel matched terminatin designs are similar t thse shwn in C. A well-matched attenuatr f at least 20 db lss can als be utilized as a terminatin. This is particularly useful in high pwer applicatins.

198 Pwer Splitters & Dividers Frequently Asked Questins abut Pwer Splitters & Dividers... What Types f pwer splitters and dividers des Weinschel ffer? Weinschel ffers a variety f bradband (dc-40 GHz) resistive pwer splitters and dividers with Type N, SMA, 3.5mm, 2.92mm cnnectr ptins. Pwer Dividers are available in 2 and 4 way cnfiguratins. Hw des a resistive pwer splitter wrk? Our resistive pwer splitters are intended fr applicatins in which ne f the tw utputs are included in a leveling lp r used as a reference in a rati measurement system, fr the purpse f prviding an utput signal whse surce impedance is essentially matched t 50 hms. A basic design cnsists f three prts with a resistr n each f the tw utput prts, and is a unidirectinal device. What are sme applicatins fr a resistive pwer splitter? Resistive pwer splitters prvide exceptinal amplitude tracking and a very lw equivalent utput SWR ver very brad frequency ranges. They are used in applicatins in which ne f the tw utputs is included in a leveling lp r as a reference in a rati systems such as: A dual channel insertin lss measuring system where the resistive pwer splitter prvides reference and a signal channel. A precisin pwer surce where a pwer meter f knwn characteristics is used, either by rati r leveling t prvide a calibrated utput. Prvide a sampled utput used fr leveling a signal surce - fr instance in single channel attenuatin measurements. What applicatins use resistive pwer dividers? Bradband independent signal sampling - used in systems t simultaneusly measure tw different characteristics f ne signal such as frequency and pwer. Distributin f a lw pwer signals t tw r mre antennas. Labratry measurements where a reference signal exactly tracking the reference signal is required. Resistive pwer dividers can be used as pwer cmbiners because they are bidirectinal. When d I use a pwer splitter r divider? In simple terms many are cnfused as t the difference between pwer splitters and pwer dividers. Here is sme basic infrmatin that we hpe will help. Pwer splitters are nly used in a rati systems r leveling lp. Pwer splitters can never be used t cmbined pwer. They are unidirectinal. A basic pwer splitter has tw resistrs and three prts. Pwer dividers shuld nt be used in rati and leveling lp applicatin because a mismatch cnditin f nminally 3:1 wuld exist. Pwer dividers can be used as pwer cmbiners because they are bi-directinal. Pwer dividers can be used in a system t simultaneusly measure tw different characteristics f ne signal such as frequency and attenuatin, pwer splitters can nt. A basic pwer divider has three resistrs and three prts. A simple descriptin f the circuit shws that any ne f the three prts has 50 hm input impedance when the thers are terminated in 50 hms. The insertin lss between any tw prts is 6 db. What is a Resistive Pwer Divider? An equivalent circuit f the resistive divider is shwn belw. A simple analysis f this circuit will demnstrate that any ne f the three prts has a 50 hm input impedance when the ther tw are terminated in 50 hms, and that the insertin lss between any tw prts is 6 db. A micrwave netwrk f this type cnsists f a symmetrical resistive film depsited n a ceramic substrate having three cnducting cntacts, each cnnected t the center cnductr f a caxial cnnectr. Resistive dividers prvide well-matched signals f essentially equal magnitude and phase ver a very brad band as ppsed t the reactive and hybrid types which emply frequency limitive techniques. The resistive divider is intended fr applicatins where the utput signals are used independently, such as the simultaneus mnitring f pwer and frequency. 197 web: sales@aerflex-weinschel.cm Revisin Date: 12/15/04

Nn-rtatinal Interface - Since the PLANAR INTERFACE has interlcking teeth, it eliminates unthreading f the cnnectin when the Crwn is subjected t a rtatinal trque. This feature is especially useful n caxial cables where ne end unthreads s easily when the cable is subjected t twisting r flexing. Trque Independent Cnnectin - A trque wrench is nt required when mating the Crwn t the bulkhead. A reasnable hand tightening f the cupling nut results in an excellent RF cnnectin. This is achieved by having spring biased inner and uter cntacts in the Crwn cnnectrs. Spring biasing ensures an intimate electrical cntact at the PLANAR INTERFACE. A pilt diameter n the bulkhead guarantees excellent cncentricity. Axial Islatin f the Center Cntact - Any excessive axial frce n the Crwn center cntact is absrbed by the spring biasing at the Planar interface end. Standardized Munting Hles - All instrument panels can be fabricated with a standard 3/8" Dia. D-hle independent f the frnt panel cnnectr type/sex. This eliminates changes in sheet metal design when different cnnectr ptins are requested. Descriptin The PLANAR CROWN Universal Cnnectr System is cmprised f tw cnnectr halves/subassemblies which have a cmmn mating interface referred t as the PLANAR INTERFACE. The first cnnectr half is called the PLANAR BULKHEAD which readily munts int instrument frnt panels, cmpnents and cables. One end f this bulkhead has a 2.92mm (SMK) male/female primary cnnectr. The ther end has a cmbinatin f grves, external threads and a caxial PLANAR INTERFACE with a 2.92mm (SMK) airline gemetry. The bulkhead perates mde free beynd 40 GHz. The secnd cnnectr half, called the PLANAR CROWN, has a similar 2.92mm PLANAR INTERFACE n ne end, with spring biased inner and uter cntacts. It has crrespnding prjectins which interlck with slts n the bulkhead and a cupling nut which secures the tw cnnectr halves, resulting in a nn-rtatinal, trque independent electrical cnnectin. The spring biased inner and uter cntacts eliminate the need fr specifying prf trque and n tls are required t make r break the cnnectin. The primary end f the PLANAR CROWN is ffered in a variety f primary caxial cnnectr cnfiguratins such as SMA, Type N, GPC-7, TNC, 3.5mm, 2.92mm (SMK) and 2.4mm (under develpment), thus prviding an extremely versatile cnnectr system wherein a cnnectr can be replaced in a matter f secnds.

227 Caxial Adapters Frequently Asked Questins abut Adapters Precisin Cnnectr Systems... What types f adapters and/r cnnectrs des Aerflex / Weinschel ffer? Aerflex / Weinschel ffers a wide variety f precisin SMA, 2.92mm, Type N, 3.5mm, 2.4mm and male, female, and sexless cmbinatins f adapters frm which t chse. Als, Aerflex / Weinschel manufactures a wide range f Blind-mate Cnnectrs and ur wn PLANAR CROWN Cnnectr System. All Aerflex / Weinschel cmpnents are designed and manufactured t btain lw SWR and excellent repeatability ver the lngest pssible peratinal life. Other features f Aerflex / Weinschel Adapters and Cnnectrs include: 1. High Repeatability. 2. Quality Cnnectrs - SMA, Type N, 3.5mm, 2.92mm, and 2.4mm. 3. Bulkhead Munting Available 4. Brad Frequency Range - dc t 40 GHz. What are Blind-mate Cnnectrs and where wuld I use them? Aerflex / Weinschel Blind-mate cnnectr series prvides threadless cnnectr mating which is useful when mating an array f cnnectrs n ne RF mdule t anther array within secnds. Each cnnectr pair will tlerate a radial and axial ffset f 0.02 inch and still meet all f its electrical specificatins. These cnnectrs simplify RF cnnectins in the mst inaccessible regins and high package density systems where cnventinal threaded cnnectr mating is extremely difficult. What is difference between Aerflex / Weinschel precisin SMA/ 2.92mm cnnectrs and ther SMA cnnectrs? Typical cmmercial SMA cnnectrs may have a useful SWR t 18 r 26 GHz; hwever, mst absrb energy between 22 and 25 GHz due t TEM mde cnversin. A mated pair culd have between 0.5 db t 2.0 db insertin lss. A mated pair f Aerflex / Weinschel Precisin Miniature cnnectrs (2.92mm), which mate with SMA type cnnectrs, have a VSWR f less than 1.25 and an insertin lss f less than 0.5 db t 26 GHz. The new 2.92mm expands this range t 40 GHz. What is the advantages f using Aerflex / Weinschel PLANAR CROWN cnnectrs?. The Aerflex / Weinschel PLANAR CROWN Universal Cnnectr System incrprates design and applicatin features that eliminate the mechanical, electrical and ecnmical drawbacks f standard bulkhead cnnectrs, cnnectr savers, cable cnnectrs and adapters. In ne standard design, it has reslved cnnectr related prblems faced by users and manufacturers f instruments, cables and cmpnents, hw t quickly and inexpensive t change cnnectr series r replace damaged frnt panel cnnectrs n instruments. This system features an perating frequency range f dc t 40 GHz; ability t maintain calibratin integrity when changing cnnectr types; and cmpatibility with all Type N, TNC, GPC-7, SMA, 2.92mm, and 2.4mm cnnectrs used thrughut the micrwave industry. What is a Ruggedized SMA Cnnectr? All Aerflex / Weinschel SMA cnnectrs labeled as ruggedized have a dielectric insulatr at the interface f the cnnectr t prvide additinal supprt fr the center cnductr during cnnects and discnnects and t keep ut freign material. This prvides an imprtant benefit-- imprved axial alignment f the center cntact. This substantially reduces finger breakage f the female cntact. Lngevity f the Aerflex / Weinschel SMA cnnectr is enhanced because f the increased shulder-wall thickness f the male cnnectr shell. Typically, a standard SMA male cnnectr shell has a inch wide shulder. Cmpare that t inch fr the Aerflex / Weinschel SMA series. The shulder f mst SMA male cnnectrs gradually cllapses frm use. This causes the center cntact t exceed the maximum height tlerance and eventually destrys the mating female cntact. This will nt happen with a Aerflex / Weinschel SMA cnnectr. web: sales@aerflex-weinschel.cm Revisin Date: 12/15/04 225
