Re: Agilent/Keysigh ESG series CLIP
Interesting topic!
I already answered here before, and got my version of the CLIP, but I just realizing that there is multiple CLIP version If I understand correctly.
Would be amazing to have better

Re: hp8970a recallibration attenuator help
That is correct. You need either ~15dB ENR or an amplifier with at least 10dB gain between the 6 dB ENR noise source and the 8970 input. I use an 8447D when I don’t have a 15 dB ENR noise source

Hi all
The threads you are looking for are M3.5, this is a little used thread except in the UK where it is used by electricians to hold switch face plates in place, it is actually very close to 4BA

Re: hp8970a recallibration attenuator help
Hello Roberto,
Special Function 33 is for calibrating the IF attenuators. Just connect a 15 dB ENR noise source and execute SF 33. Temperature entering not necessary.
