All PCB boards can be
fitted in my selected enclosure.
Update on test on slim_plo1 .
Update on slim_plo2_test and a rough test with all modules
connected.

About sch sheets: All the sch-sheets are the same with that of scotty’s. If
there has any difference, it means that I have made a mistake.
All
the errors will be pointed out in this webpage.
Compared
with the ‘slims’, only the size of the boards have been changed which can be
fitted into my selected enclosures.
So,
please refer to scotty’s website for detailed sch descriptions.
About enclosures: The width of the boards is just the same as the internal
width of the enclosures (
So,
the boards need some trims (about

The
output of J2 of slim_DDS107 is about -8dBm.
Slim_mix2
module is under test. The isolation of RF and LO can be identified in this
test. 64MHz and 10.7MHz signals are used in this test.
The
slim_plo1 has been completed. I only have ROS-2150V-1 available at hand the
output of which is only -2dBm.
So,
-14dB pad is not used. I installed 3 100R Resistors which provide about -9dB
attenuation.
The
slim_plo2 is also completed and under test. I only have V583ME01 at hand.
A
minor modification is needed for the loop filter section. And I drill a hole at the pad of R2.
The
MSA modules are under test.
