====== Network Analyzer - Test Case ======

===== Initial Setup =====

In order to proceed through the test case, first of all delete the Scopy *.ini file (saves previous settings made in Scopy tool) from the following path on Windows: C:\Users\your_username\AppData\Roaming\ADI .

Open the Network Analyzer instrument. The interface should look like the picture below:

{{ :university:tools:m2k:scopy:test-cases:scopy_1v3_network-analyzer.png |}}

Press multiple times on the "Run" button to check if the instrument works.

| **Notch Filter: fN = 16.9kHz** | 2.1 Create a band stop notch filter with the following components: R1 = 100 Ohms, 2xC1 = 0.047uF, 2xR2 = 200 Ohms, C2 = 0.094uF. For C2, since it is not a standard value, you might use a capacitor box or connect two 0.047uF capacitors in parallel to achieve the value of the capacitance. This will have a notch frequency of approximately 16.9kHz. At this frequency, it will be highly attenuated. | {{:university:tools:m2k:scopy:test-cases:NA-D2.1.png?100|}} | The set up must look like the image in the Steps Resources picture on the left. |
