Two Tone Third Order Output Intercept Point Measurements

Two-Tone_F1-F1p.jpeg

This LabVIEW panel shows the results of computer automated Two-Tone Third Order Output Intercept Point measurements for a PCS band RF amplifier. Measurements were performed using two programmable signal generators and a spectrum analyzer. A power meter was used to calibrate the input and output cables and connectors, and the spectrum analyzer amplitude readings. This panel design is tailored toward an "engineering evaluation" environment, instead of a "production test" environment.
