This Event Is for Vmars and Dehs Members Only VMARS Auction Kineton Village Hall, Mill Street, Kineton, Warwickshire CV35 0LB Saturday 26th March 2011 10.30 a.m.- 3.30 p.m. THIS EVENT IS FOR VMARS AND DEHS MEMBERS ONLY AUCTION CATALOGUE This auction is being carried out on behalf of the relatives of the late Peter Skinner. On this occasion additional lots will not be accepted on the day. Unless otherwise stated, all items are as seen, and have not been inspected in detail, so no warranty as to them being authentic, complete, or in working order can be implied. Buyers are advised strongly to check that mains operated items comply with current safety standards before connecting to the mains. Unless otherwise stated, no such checks have been carried out on equipment offered at this auction. Buyers should be aware that equipment may have been stored under damp conditions, with the risk of ‘leaky’ transformers which could trip RCCB protected mains supplies, or fail-to-chassis when powered. Equipment may not be adequately earthed, or earth connections may have corroded. Critical power supply components such as electrolytic smoothing capacitors require ‘re-forming’ if stored for extended periods of time, resulting in spectacular failure if not treated accordingly! Some equipment offered in this auction operates at high voltage. Applying power to equipment which has not been dried out properly, or with accumulated dirt or corrosion, can damage the equipment whilst making it potentially hazardous. Those intending to place bids at this auction will be issued with a bidding card before the start. All accounts must be settled by close on the day of the auction. You are advised that some items will carry a reserve price. Getting to Kineton: Kineton is signposted from junction 12 of the M40. Follow the signposted route via Gaydon. The Village Hall is in the centre of Kineton. For those who are unable to travel by car, the nearest railway station is Warwick, from where a taxi can be taken. The distance from Warwick is approximately 12 miles.

MARSHALL SPACE FLIGHT CENTER NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION HUNTSVILLE, ALABAMA Contract No. NAS 8-24771 GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY SPACE SYSTEMS ORGANIZATION VALLEY FORGE SPACE CENTER P.O. BOX 8555 PHILADELPHIA, PA. 19101 ABSTRACT This report covers the first half of a contract on the "Development of Circuitry for a Multikilowatt Transmitter for Space Communications Satellites". This effort is a continuation of a previous study on definition of space trans­ mitters with emphasis on space TV broadcast satellites; it will culminate in a breadboard of a transmitter type applicable to a UHF AM-TV broadcast satellite. Development of about half of the transmitter was performed during the reporting interval. Of the transmitter circuits, initial development is complete for a 125 watt visual channel driver at 825.25 MHz and nearly complete for a 500 watt FM aural channel amplifier at 829.75 MHz. A crowbar circuit for dc breakdown protection has been bench tested and will be included in the final transmitter assembly. Also, RF waveguide components have been completed for inclusion in the transmitter tests. An initial approach has been selected for the high effi­ ciency Doherty UHF visual channel amplifier, and a controlled carrier circuit has been designed to achieve dc power conservation in the AM TV application.

    Keysight Technologies Fundamentals of RF and Microwave Power Measurements (Part 2) Power Sensors and Instrumentation Application Note For user convenience, the Keysight Technologies, Inc. Fundamentals of RF Fundamentals of RF and Microwave Power and Microwave Power Measurements, Measurements (Part 1) application note 64-1, literature number 5965-6330E, has been updated and Introduction to Power, History, Deinitions, International segmented into four technical subject Standards, and Traceability groupings. The following abstracts explain AN 1449-1, literature number 5988-9213EN how the total field of power measurement fundamentals is now presented. Part 1 introduces the historical basis for power measurements, and provides definitions for average, peak, and complex modulations. This application note overviews various sensor technologies needed for the diversity of test signals. It describes the hierarchy of international power traceability, yielding comparison to national standards at worldwide National Measurement Institutes (NMIs) like the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology. Finally, the theory and practice of power sensor comparison procedures are examined with regard to transferring calibration factors and uncertainties. A glossary is included which serves all four parts. Fundamentals of RF and Microwave Power Measurements (Part 2) Power Sensors and Instrumentation AN 1449-2, literature number 5988-9214EN Part 2 presents all the viable sensor technologies required to exploit the users’ wide range of unknown modulations and signals under test. It explains the sensor technologies, and how they came to be to meet certain measurement needs. Sensor choices range from the venerable thermistor to the innovative thermocouple to more recent improvements in diode sensors. In particular, clever variations of diode combinations are presented, which achieve ultra-wide dynamic range and square-law detection for complex modulations.

  • RF Power Reference for RF Power Meter Calibration
    Simple RF Power Reference For RF power meter calibration Paul Wade W1GHZ ©2006 [email protected] corrected 7/2011 You’ve just finished building a new RF power meter, like the ABPM from Down East Microwave (www.downeastmicrowave.com) – how do you calibrate it? Or perhaps you’ve acquired a surplus unit – how do you check the calibration? You need some known reference point or a friend with a calibrated meter. Some recent commercial power meters, like the HP 435, include a reference output to check and set the calibration of the meter. These fine meters are occasionally found as surplus at very reasonable prices, probably because the RF sensor heads command such exorbitant prices that the meter alone is unattractive. However, the meter is worth a modest amount for the reference output alone, to be used to check other power meters, either homebrew or older surplus. With inexpensive RF power detector chips made for wireless networking, it is easy to homebrew a good microwave power meter like ABPM – so I started thinking about ways to make a reproducible reference source for RF power. The obvious starting point was the HP 435; I looked at the schematic, but it didn’t feel right. One readily available, reproducible, component is a diode. If we use a pair of anti-parallel (back-to- back) diodes as a clipper, we get a pretty predictable voltage. Of course, the clipping action generates lots of harmonics – this is a good way to make a frequency multiplier or harmonic mixer – so a low- pass filter is needed to get a sine wave output.

For more information and/or support, visit www.analog.com/CN0366. AD7091R 12-Bit, 1 MSPS Precision ADC A 40 GHz Microwave Power Meter with a Range from −30 dBm to +15 dBm EVALUATION AND DESIGN SUPPORT CIRCUIT FUNCTION AND BENEFITS Circuit Evaluation Boards The circuit shown in Figure 1 is an accurate 40 GHz, microwave ADL6010 Evaluation Board (ADL6010-EVALZ) power meter with a 45 dB range that requires only two AD7091R Evaluation Board (EVAL-AD7091RSDZ) components. The RF detector has an innovative detector cell System Demonstration Platform (EVAL-SDP-CB1Z) using Schottky diodes followed by an analog linearization circuit. Design and Integration Files A low power, 12-bit, 1 MSPS analog-to-digital converter (ADC) Schematics, Layout Files, Bill of Materials provides a digital output on a serial peripheral interface (SPI) port. A simple calibration routine is run before measurement operation, at the particular RF frequency of interest. The user can then operate the system in measurement mode. When in measurement mode, the CN-0366 Evaluation Software displays the calibrated RF input power that is applied at the input of the detector in units of dBm. The total power dissipation of this circuit is less than 9 mW on a single 5 V supply. 5V VPOS MAXIMUM INPUT RANGE: 5V ADL6010 DETECTOR OUTPUT = 4V 0V TO 2.5V VDD RFCM ANALOG RFIN VOUT VIN AD7091R SPI RF INPUT SIGNAL 12-BIT, POWER PROCESSOR 200Ω 1MSPS ADC RFCM 340Ω GND COMM 12625-001 Figure 1.
