of the new PMM 9010 is almost complete.PMM 9010: the new fully digital receiver thatoutperforms competition is here.Continuing the tradition of offeringinnovative technical solutions for easy andpractical measurements applications, thePMM 9010 - a fully digital receiver in the 10Hz to 30 MHz range - is the first cornerstoneof a system which grows together with theusers’ needs: all EMC conductedmeasurements will be possible by simply

upgrading the PMM 9010 with specificoptions, e.g. Click Meter, MIL-STD filters, andaccessories - LISNs and probes - providing afull compliance with almost all internationalstandard or proprietary specifications.Moreover, the modular construction, basedon pre-calibrated subassemblies, offers thefastest and most convenient recalibrationand service ever!

Practically maintenance-free and exceptionally stable, thePMM 9010 EMI Receiver is the ideal solution for reliablemeasurements day after day, month after month, year after

year.Moreover, theoutstanding featurethat service can beeasily done by simplyreplacing plug-inp r e - c a l i b r a t e ds u b a s s e m b l i e s ,represents a highlyvalued advantage incase, for example, ofdamage to the RFfront-end.Indeed, even when an

excess of energy or a too high signal would burn the inputstage, the Customer can be back in operation and continuehis work in the shortest possible time, being sure that hisreceiver is still perfectly calibrated.The Narda STS Sales Network is highly qualified and will beyour consultant for every measurement problem: ask theexperts and make your job easier with PMM 9010, theguiding star in the EMC market.

Until now, technology has not allowed a fullydigital receiver up to the GHz range, NardaSTS has conceived the best possible solutiondesigning these extensions for PMM 9010,enabling the whole test system to go up to 3or 6 GHz taking all the benefits from thedigital approach.The PMM 9030 and PMM 9060 are thereforethe ultra-fast 30 MHz - 3 GHz or 6 GHzreceivers extending the measurementfrequency range of the PMM 9010 up to thefield of Radiated Emissions, thanks to adedicated RF module. A fast and safeconnection with PMM 9010 is guaranteed bya High Speed Digital Optical Link, providingthe most immune way to transfer data: onlythe real measurement data received at theantenna reaches the detectors!This dedicated digital Front End perfectlymatches with the PMM 9010, to create acompact-size, up-to-date digital receiver upto 3 or 6 GHz.PMM 9030 and PMM 9060 are basically ahighly sophisticated auxiliary equipment,which converts the RF input into a digitalsignal sent to PMM 9010 through a FiberOptic Cable. The transfer rate is higher than2.5 GB/s and a huge amount of informationis handled by the proprietary protocol.Very limited dimensions and lightweightconstruction allow the PMM 9030 and PMM9060 to be connected directly to theantenna, making the dream of many testengineers come true. Benefits are reallymany, as RF coaxial cables for antenna toreceiver connection may significantly affectmeasurements due to intrinsic cable lossand impedance mismatch.

Moreover, cables may pick up unwanted RFsignals along the path from the antenna tothe receiver. The PMM 9030 and PMM 9060overcome all those error sources throughthe optical link, thus providing moreaccurate and reliable measurements.In order to allow complete galvanicseparation, PMM 9030 and PMM 9060 arebattery powered by the same Li-Ion plug-inrechargeable battery used for the 9010 unit,thus providing interchangeability and noise-free performances for up to four hours ofcontinuous operation. Replacing the plug-inbattery is just a matter of seconds.The PMM software can drive the coupled9010-9030 or 9010-9060 to easily performany measurement foreseen by thecommercial and military standards, evenstand-alone or, whenever required, with thenecessary auxiliary equipment.The APD (Amplitude ProbabilityDistribution) function is another example ofhow well the new PMM receivers canrespond to the evolving requests ofupcoming standards.The APD is a statistical characterization ofsignals recently introduced for testing above1 GHz, that requires scanning of selectedspans and measurements on severalfrequencies using Peak detector and MaxHold function, then sorting frequencies thatshow highest disturbance levels andcomparing them with the limits for a given“Probability”.

High performance digital architecture

after the A/D converter which is inserted inthe circuit just when the signal comes out ofthe input attenuator and the preselector, totake the maximum benefit from the digitalapproach. All the internal references arederived from the system clock: the receiveris free from any phase noise, jitter, drift, etc.

No calibrations, no adjustments

for highest precision and simultaneity. Adedicated Receiver Signal Processor handlesall the numeric signals within the digital IF,while the Digital Signal Processor providesall of the calculations and signals treatment,like simultaneous detections, demodula-tions and graphical representation in realtime.

High-speed RSP and DSP

of all digital RBW filters. It’s simply amazingthe perfection of these filtersmathematically created and shaped to meetexactly the CISPR requirements.If needed by changes in the stardards, newmarkets opportunities, custom requests etc.Narda can model new filters to upgrade thereceivers and implement the new features.This consists just in firmware upgrade doneby the user and is a matter of seconds.

Absolute and stable compliance to CISPR

allows the use of the FIR (Finite ImpulseResponse) technique to create digital RBWfilters: the result is an impressive lifetimestability of such filters and a shapecontrolled to the perfection, due to itsmathematical modelling. The competitivereceivers featuring analogue filters aredefinitely several steps behind.The Numeric Local Oscillator generates puremathematical signals for the Digital IF Filters,divided into Real and Imaginary parts. Themain advantage of the mathematic

The powerful RSP (Receiver Signal Processor)

feature absolute stability and lifetimecalibration-free operation. The response ofsuch RF receiver is no longer dependingfrom the input signals and the detectorsalways work exactly as intended. Thesedetectors are mathematical functions forunsurpassed performance and precision:they are simply the best and simultaneousby definition. It shall be noted that all thesedetectors and functions are needed in areceiver full compliant to the latest CISPR 16-1-1.Then the Product Committee can decidewhich of these features are the mostappropriate; for instance, the latestRMS+Avg detector and the APD functions –as well as the Average detector - will be usedwith the new digital equipment and/orabove 1 GHz. No problem for other productsstill requiring the more traditional Quasi-Peak and Average detectors: they’re all onboard.

The Pure Mathematical QP, PK, AVG,RMS, RMS + AVG Detectors and theAPD function

source is emitting for very short periods oftime - or when the source operating cycle isextremely short, there is a much higherprobability to capture and measure thedisturbance.

another step ahead from analoguebehaviour! At each frequency step, given bythe selected filter bandwidth, the PMM 9010really stops for the preset time, so taking aperfect picture of the signal under analysis,while analogue receivers may show a certain“drift” depending from the sweep time.With setting equal to 0, the Hold Time is theminimum time of permanence required bythe selected IF filter for the fastest possiblemeasurement speed.

Hold Timeare stored in a non-volatile memory andimmediately available for tests done in“Sweep Mode”: easy, fast and error free!

The Pre-Loaded CISPR Limits

in PMM 9010 is a very flexible RF generatortracking with the span or settable at anyfrequency in the range of 10 Hz ÷ 50 MHz:another powerful tool for the designers thatmakes the PMM 9010 an easy-to-use scalarnetwork analyzer for characterizingcomponents, filters etc.This generator provides also the self-calibration of the equipment, as it representsthe main frequency reference for all thereceiver operation.To keep it calibrated, it‘s enough to sendback to Narda just the generator moduleitself: a terrific advantage in terms of costsand speed.

The Internal RF Generator

The Click Meter Option

allows the user to perform continuousdisturbance tests in a straightforward andeasy way.The receiver takes care of everything:evaluation of the Click Rate N; applicableexceptions; Click measurement using UpperQuartile Method; Full Report with allmandatory data.PMM 9010 fully supports the new standarddealing with all the allowed four exceptions,showing in real time all the events includingclick details and reporting all mandatory andoptional data to make a detailed report. Itshall be noted that the handling of E-3 is themost demanding in terms of hardware andsoftware, however it is also the exceptionthat is more beneficial for the customer, as itallows to skip unnecessary tests. In general,the first investigation is terminated as perone of the required events listed in thestandard: after 40 clicks; after the standard120 minutes; after a specific time span;manually; paused and resumed to allowrestarting recursive EUT programs.Moreover, PMM 9010 has the unique feature

designed to make correct measurements ofall input signals, including pulses.The qualityof the preselector - one of the very fewanalogue sections in the receiver - isessential to guarantee the bestperformances and represents the mostimportant difference between a true EMIReceiver, capable of the more reliable results,and a generic Spectrum Analyzer adapted toperform EMC measurements.

Built-in Preselector

provides maximum dynamic range withoutdistortion. It is controlled by an FPGA (FieldProgrammable Gate Array) directly driven bythe internal DSP (Digital Signal Processor)and provides optimum performances inevery testing condition, while protecting theRF input (e.g.: zero dB attenuation is notallowed in auto-attenuation mode).

The Auto Attenuator

of PMM 9010 cannot be saturated thus itprovides correct response to continuousand pulsed signals, while in most receiversthe preamplifier is directly connected to theRF input. Saturation might be there withoutnotice!

The Built-in Preamplifier

is built-in in the PMM 9010, providing anextra protection, if required.

Input and Output

Instruments typically compromise physicaldimensions with display size and type.Despite its small size, the PMM 9010 featuresa sophisticated graphic process that allowsthe bright, clear, 16-levels grey backlighteddisplay to catch and show even thenarrowest peak in the spectrum.

Graphic Display

the receiver can be operated as stand-aloneby the front knob and soft keys throughuser-friendly menus, or remotely by a PCconnected via USB or RS232 Serial interface(Bluetooth optionally).

Controls

for enhanced portability and for field tests,also offering the major advantage of beingcompletely disconnected from the mains incritical analysis, for measurements notinfluenced at all in hostile or noisyenvironments.

Rechargeable/ReplaceableInternal batteries

as the high frequency receiver can bemounted directly on top of the EM Clampusing a suitable Clamp Adapter and a veryshort cable connection from the receiver tothe EM Clamp.This means that the long, movableconnection (usually going to a reel on theceiling of the lab and from there to thereceiver) is made with a fibre optic, not witha coaxial cable which is heavier, thicker, lessflexible, more subject to damage - especiallynear to the connectors. Again, mechanicaland electrical advantages for the testEngineers.

Easier Radiated Power set-up

or any tests where the connection to thesupply network may introduce additionalnoise, e.g. due to ground loops - are nolonger a problem with the PMM 9010 / 9030/ 9060 receivers: they are battery operatedand all share the same model ofrechargeable battery. Easy, clean, fast, simple.

In-situ Tests

“Smart Measure” that can dramaticallyspeed up the Click test: another productivityfeature by Narda STS.

After the A/D conversion the behaviourof a regular receiver is mathematicallysimulated in order to perfectly matchinternational standards specifica-tions.Even for a digital architecture,preselector filters and input attenuatorsare mandatory for limiting the signalenergy into well defined RF bands, toimprove the dynamic range and toincrease the signal to noise ratio, thusensuring accurate measurements of allwideband complex signals typical ofEMC measurements.The input attenuator provides themaximum dynamic range with nodistortion. This is particularly importantin conducted tests where overloadingsignals may be present outside thefrequency band under test.To prevent this from happening, thePMM 9010’s input attenuator is directlycontrolled by the DSP in widebandmode to maintain the responselinearity in any conditions and also toprotect the RF input from out-of-bandsignals that are too high.No calibrations and no adjustments arerequired after the A/D converter: CISPRIF filters and detectors are allmathematically calculated and are thusnot subject to any degradation for thelife of the instrument. This highperformance digital architecture

features an ultra-fast A/D converterwith the DSP controlling 3 moreprocessors for different functions: RSP,FPGA, CPLD.The ADC is followed by the ReceiverSignal Processor - RSP - that performsmost of the analogue-like functions ofthe receiver and handles all thenumeric signals within the digital IF,with the main advantage of thissolution directly deriving from theperfection of the mathematicapproach: the computing function isequivalent to conventional analoguemixers, but simply cannot generatespurious components which aretherefore absent.The sampled signals are processed bythe RSP in a purely mathematical“mixer-like mode”, and then applied toFIR (Finite Impulse Response) digitalRBW filters: the result is an unbelievablystable filter, a shape controlled toperfection as it is mathematicallymodelled. Adjustments needed byanalogue filters are simply not required.One of the fastest available DSP notonly controls the RSP, but also performsall of the calculations and signalprocessing, like simultaneousdetections and graphicalrepresentation, in real time; it controlsother functions like the frequency

sweep, etc.The DSP simultaneously applies themathematical algorithms correspon-ding to the detectors Peak, CISPR Quasi-Peak, RMS, Average, RMS+AVE whoseresponse is no longer depends on theinput signals, as the detectors alwayswork exactly as intended in perfecttime coherent measurements.Thanks to the high number ofoperations performed by the DSP -equivalent to those of an ideal 10 GHzPentium 4™ - the DSP also manages thedifferent operating modes: SweepMode, like a traditional receiver withCISPR Limits stored in non-volatilememory, Spectrum and Manual Mode.The Spectrum Mode allows the receiverto perform spectrum analyzerfunctions, and thanks to the very highscan speed (<100 ms for full-span 9kHz-30 MHz @ IF resolution 300 kHz) itis very useful for any kind of debugging.In Manual Mode the filter in CISPRbands is selected automaticallyaccording to the frequency and thedata are displayed with a dynamicrange up to 120 dB, and the hold time isexactly the integration timetheoretically required by the applieddetectors.Moreover, hold time means that thereceiver really stops for the preset time,

Operating Principles of the PMM 9010-PMM 9030-PMM 9060

Perfect, life-long stable and calibration-free RBW filters(picture: 200 Hz RBW CISPR filter)

thus taking a perfect picture of thesignal under analysis, with no driftdepending from on the sweep time.Other RBW filter standards which maybe required in future can be easilyadded: Narda designers will modelthem mathematically, verify theirperformances and add them touserfriendly firmware upgrades.The huge internal memory combinedwith the capability of making a FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) analysis of thesignals allows for an ultra-fast completescan of the whole A-band (9 to 150 kHz)performed in only 1 second even withthe 200 Hz filter.Even in those cases when the source ison for very short periods of time – orwhen the source has an extremely shortcycle - it is possible to see and measurethe emissions.A clever function - the Smart Detector -dramatically reduces test time andimproves productivity: the receiverstarts scanning with the fast peakdetector then, when the reading is closeto a selected limit it immediately turnsto quasi-peak detector (or any otherselected one), moves some frequencystep back and measures with the newdetector until the signal returns low;then the receiver turns back in peakmode and continues the scan at the

highest possible speed, repeating thisprocess any time there’s an over limitpeak .This “performance booster” was firstintroduced in PMM’s receivers in 1990.To maintain calibration a signalreference is essential: a high stabilityinternal RF Signal Generator (60 to 90dBμV in 0,1 dB steps) has been added tothe PMM 9010.This RF generator can work in trackingmode with the span or set at anyfrequency in the range of 10 Hz to 50MHz: in addition to being the mainreference for the receiver, it also makesthe receiver an easy-to-use scalarnetwork analyzer for characterizingcomponents, antennas, filters etc.To always keep your receiver perfectlycalibrated, just send the generatormodule back to your Narda Dealer: aterrific advantage in terms of costs andspeed.After recalibration, this single module iseasily reinstalled into the receiver torestart operations immediately after.The PMM 9030 and PMM 9060 areinnovative and different from thisstand point: although they need anexternal frequency reference source forcalibration check, the complete RFfront-end only - a single, solid blockmodule - can be sent to Factory the

same way.Utilizing a digital receiverimplementation, it’s easy for such areceiver to integrate a single channelClick Receiver with no additionalhardware required: an external optionis required only to have a full 4 channelsclick evaluation.Moreover, the huge memory of thereceiver (required for storing eachdisturbance duration and interval andfor post-process) is essential to be ableto fulfill the recently modified clickspecifications approved by CISPR.
