Safety Earth

Ground This is a Safety Class I product (provided with a protective earthing

terminal). An uninterruptible safety earth ground must be provided from the

main power source to the product input wiring terminals, power cord, or

supplied power cord set. Whenever it is likely that the protection has been

VHF Attenuators Operating and Service Manual 1

General Information

This manual contains operating instructions for 355C, 355D, 355E, and

355F VHF Attenuators. Included in the manual is the information required

to install and test these attenuators.

Description The Agilent Technologies Model 355C, 355D, 355E, and 355F attenuators

are 50-ohm, coaxial step attenuators usable from dc to 1 GHz. Models 355C

and 355E provide 0 to 12 dB of attenuation in 1 dB steps.

Models 355D and 355F provide 0 to 120 dB of attenuation in 10 dB steps.

The 355C and 355D are manual attenuators. The 355E and 355F are

programmable. The schematic for the Model 355C/D is shown in Figure 1,

and that of the Model 355E/F in Figure 2.

The attenuator sections consist of resistor pi networks which are switched in

or bypassed by microswitches. In the 355C and 355D, the microswitches

are actuated by cams (see Figure 1). In the 355E and 355F, the

microswitches are actuated by solenoids (see Figure 2). The standard RF

connectors are BNC type.

In the 355E and 355F, power must be continuously applied to the solenoid to

actuate the microswitch (i.e., to insert an attenuator section). Each solenoid

draws approximately 0.lA at 15 Vdc.

Dimensions for the individual instruments are provided in Table 1,

“Dimensions,” on page 2.
