Measurement on High-Speed Multiplexer

MS2760A Ultraportable Spectrum Analyzer
The design and component characterization of a 4: 1 multiplexer is presented in 0.13 μm SiGe bipolar technology. Due to the high data transfer rates, the control of the on-chip clock distribution is more or less as important as it is critical.

With the increasing overloading of the available frequency bands by communication signals, spectral measurements become more meaningful. As a result, the need for measuring and testing technology rises above the 6 GHz mark. These tools should provide information on blind spots in the spectrum and on interference in order to ensure the coexistence of different mobile radio signals. Anritsu has developed a new spectrum analyzer in miniature design. MS2760A, which is pocket size (Fig. 4) and has a weight of 280 gr integrate sensitive and accurate measurement functions in the range of 9 kHz * to 110 GHz.

Combined with a modern tablet or PC, differentiated spectrum measurements can be made in the laboratory, in production-related environments, or in field work - any applications that involve drone-based spectrum deactivation or measurement of frequency coverage allocation in buildings.

The measuring system integrates heterodyne receiver architecture for frequencies up to 6 GHz or sampling technology for up to 110 GHz, the controller uses Anritsu's patented NLTL technology (Non Linear Transmission Line). 

The measurement is made as close as possible to the test object (DUT), an error-prone and dissipative connection through conventional coaxial cable must be avoided. The frequency resolution of the analyzer is 1 Hz. The analyzer provides the ability to set any value for resolution bandwidth (RBW) and video bandwidth (VBW). The amplitude accuracy is typically ± 1 dB across all frequencies. 

With USB3.0 connectivity to any i7 (Windows-based) architectures, all the basic features of a spectrum analyzer, including the spectrogram function and time-domain zero-span operation down to a 10 μs period, are enabled. Remote access is also possible. 

For the transformation of the measurement results into the time domain, fixed samples of a local oscillator are used, popular spectrum analyzers usually employ a swept local oscillator. Once the memory points have been detected and compared in an advanced mirror suppression algorithm, the analysis software calculates a fast Fourier transform (FFT) and generates the power / frequency spectrum.
