Shielding data lines to RF circuits
Dear all
I want to design a DDS board which has attenuators on the output to provide a low level output (-100dBm) I have a venerable HP8640B which can give a calibrated output to -137dBm To achieve this HP have gone to extraordinary lengths to shield the oscillator attenuator/output amp circuits and any control lines - I note there are at least two stages of bypassing/low pass filtering with an intermediate shielded section My question is: how do I get data and power lines into my DDS chip (in a shielded enclosure) and prevent RF leakage out which will limit the useful minimum level out from the DDS board? I presume I will have to use a buffer of some sort for the data lines and extensive bypassing on the power lines. I want reasoanbly quick update speeds for my DDS, which is a serial port, which will mean data rates in the MHz region. Thanks Richard |
