RF Signal Path
Introduction
The RF signal path extends from the output of the frequency synthesizer to
the LPF. This section of circuitry will require investigation either following
certain checks in
“Biasing of PA Driver and PAs”
reveal no fault. The procedure is divided
into ten tasks grouped as follows:
■
: initial RF signal path
■
: directional coupler
■
: PIN switch
■
The initial signal path includes the exciter and PA driver. The directional
coupler, PIN switch, and LPF make up the final signal path.
The measurement points for diagnosing faults in the signal path are
summarized in
