IC marking ?

2001-12-07 Thread brent . dewitt
I'm trying to track down the data on a SO-8 protection diode array and I don't recognise the package marking. It's a circle made up of four stars at 90 degree angles to each other. I _think_ it might be the now obsolete General Semiconductor symbol. Can anybody point me to a reference?

I totally agree. Note that my response is bandwidth independent. If the measurement bandwidth is an X dB bandwidth, then a signal exactly half a measurement bandwidth from a tuned frequency will be measured to be X dB down from the value returned if it were precisely tuned in. And this bounds

Ken: Did you do your test by first setting the receiver to the 2950 MHz signal, and then setting up a symmetrical scan from that reference? For example, if I used a spectrum analyzer to look at 2950 MHz, by setting the CENTER FREQUENCY, and then selected a FREQUENCY SPAN of 4000 MHz with a

Ken, A spectrum analyzer sweeps through a range of frequencies. The resolution of the display merely impacts the accuracy of the frequency determination for a signal when digitized and sent to a computer over the bus. Each point on the display simply shows the highest level obtained in the

Hello all, We typically measure in 500 MHz spans, our spectrum analyzer has 400 bits so 1.25 MHz/bit. Concerned that we could miss an emission I perfromed the below experiment, try it: Injected a 2950 MHz signal into EMI Receiver, set for 1MHz RBW, and measured it using diffrent Spans 3 000
