NPM–9 Troubleshooting Instructions PAMS Technical Documentation RF Troubleshooting Introduction Measurements should be done using spectrum analyzer with high–frequency high–impedance passive probe (LO–/reference frequencies and RF power levels) and oscilloscope with a 10:1 probe (DC–voltages and low frequency signals). The RF–section is build around one RF–ASIC (HAGAR N600). Before changing HAGAR, please check following things: Supply voltages are OK and serial communication coming from baseband to HAGAR.
