Question
There are two DC input connectors on the rear of the network analyzer.
- How is the pin-out of these connectors?
- What type of connector is necessary for plug-in?
What is the correct pin layout of the DC inputs on the network analyzer's rear panel?
Answer
The DC inputs make it possible to measure and display DC voltages or the power added efficiency (PAE)* of an
active two-port DUT. One connector can handle voltages from –1 V to +1 V, and the other from –10 V to +10 V. Pin number Name Direction Function
3 GNDA Ground Analog ground
5 GNDA Ground Analog ground
6 DCMEAS1VPOS
DCMEAS10VPOS Input Positive 1 V or 10 V DC input (see data sheet)
8 DCMEAS1VNEG
DCMEAS10VNEG Input Negative 1 V or 10 V DC input
(see data sheet)
Please see the picture below for the exact pin layout.
The necessary connector type is a "4-pin mini DIN, male" connector.
