HP 70871A Scalar Personality

The signal-mode portion of the personality includes spur-search and harmonic-distortion routines. Spur search lists the frequency and amplitude of any spurious signal meeting specified criteria. The harmonic-distortion routine measures the fundamental and its second and third harmonics, as well as the harmonic-distortion percentage-all with a single keystroke.

The scalar-mode operation of the personality provides a dedicated scalar-analyzer interface and high-level routines to simplify stimulus-response measurements. Gain or loss, device bandwidth, rejection, and return-loss can be displayed vs. frequency. Sequences for transmission through calibration and a reflection open/short calibration are included. To simplify filter characterization, high leveltest routines measure 3 dB bandwid th, Q, and shape factor with a single keystroke. Limit lines provide a simple PASS or FAIL test.
