Operation Introduction Introduction This section provides information on how to make effective use of the 11970 mixers. Operating Precautions Refer to the sections below for specific parameters to follow prior to mixer operation. WARNING Do not exceed the maximum ratings listed below or permanent damage to the mixer will result. RF Input Power Use the following parameters: CW: No greater than 20 dBm Pulse: No greater than 24 dBm at < 1 mSec Average: No greater than 20 dBm LO Input Power Make su

Operation Operation Getting Started Getting Started The 11970 series of millimeter wave mixers have no bias or back-short adjustments. 11970 Mixers require an LO power of 14 to 18 dBm at the LO input. If the spectrum analyzer used with the 11970 does not have sufficient LO power, an 11975A Amplifier or an equivalent is required to increase this power. CAUTION Before connecting the 11975A Amplifier, set its rear panel ALC switch to ON. Failure to do this can damage the mixer. Mixer Connection

Operation Getting Started If you are using an 11970Q, 11970U, 11970V or 11970W Mixer, and the shoulder of its waveguide flange is not properly aligned with the flange of the device under test, amplitude measurement errors can result. To ensure proper alignment, tighten each of the four flange screws in turn by small amounts, moving clockwise around the flange. NOTE 11970K and 11970A Mixers require flange screws that are different from those used with the 11970Q, 11970U, 11970V and 11970W; 11
