Re: 8753ES YTO freq vs. Main Coil mA
I checked the FM coil drive and it is right about at zero so that seems like it's not the issue. Nobody seems to know how the firmware works so we are left to guess and try things.? There is some

Re: 8753ES YTO freq vs. Main Coil mA
I don't know if this will help, but here goes. First, don't worry about the apparent offset in coil tuning current. YTOs are only specified to operate over a certain range, like an octave or two, but

Re: 8753ES YIG oscillator circuit WCA
Did you do the cavity oscillator correction, test 54, using the low pass filter? I know we talked about it, but I want to make sure this setting is correct. This is normally a firmware correction, you

16900A cleanup and modernization experience including installation notes!
I purchased a fully loaded 16900A for quite a bargain recently. It has (1) 16950B, 16M, 667MHZ state mode, and 4ghz timing zoom module. It also has (5) 16910A's, 16M option, 500MHZ state mode option.

Re: 8753ES YTO freq vs. Main Coil mA
I found that the 34401A had excessive internal resistance while in the loop so redid the YTO measurements using instead a 0.102 ohm shunt resistor.? I had redone the chart but flipped it so the trend

Re: 8753ES YTO freq vs. Main Coil mA
Hi Peter, Your plot shows? y = 0.0444x + 0.0656. So, there is a 65.6 MHz offset at 0 mA main coil current. This could in part be caused by a FM coil current which does not show up across the 40 Ohm
