Aeroflex IFR 3060

PXI RF Combiners

The 3060 Series RF combiners are PXI modules designed specifically for RF component and radio terminal system test. They are high-performance RF conditioning modules supplied in a compact single-slot 3U PXI package. The Series is comprised of three different modules each addressing a particular application, these are the 3060, 3061 and 3065.

• Integrated RF switch and power combiners
• Frequency range up to 2.7 GHz or 6 GHz
• Fast response RF switching
• Internally stored calibration data
• 2 year calibration cycle
• Single slot 3U high

The modules are ideally suited for use in RF test systems in conjunction with Aeroflex's 3020 Series RF signal generators and 3030 Series RF digitizer modules. Together these modules enable the development of compact, high-performance, low-cost, modular RF test systems. The 3060 Series RF combiners avoid the need for extraneous RF signal conditioning development in the test fixture, thereby simplifying test system design.

In addition to providing summing of signals the 3060 Series modules support various input and output switched path configurations to enable testing of single port and multi port RF devices and to enable test system internal calibration without the need to disconnect the test subject.

The 3060 Series combiner modules are supplied fully calibrated with frequency response data stored internally. This data can be read by the test system and used to offset stimulus input level in the signal generator and correct measurement results from the digitizer. In this way, calibration to the plane of the DUT connection point is maintained. The module also provides direct switch connection between input ports to enable test system end-to-end calibration.
