IQS200B-10 enables a waveguide scalar characterization of the DUT using a signal generator, power meters, frequency up and down converters and waveguide step attenuators.
Different frequency conversion setups are available, allowing end-user to control of up & down converter. Up & Down converters can be configured in Mixer mode or Multiplier/Divider mode, offering large flexibility regarding LO source configuration.
In a waveguide setup, the power level is controlled by an external waveguide step attenuator to avoid nonlinearities provided by the upconverter. As done in IQS100B-10, it’s also possible to use two or three power sensors to measure Pin, Pout and Prefl and extract additional parameters such as IRL, Pin delivered, Gp …
