DAC OFFSETTo minimize LO leakage and increase RF quality, DAC I/Q offset value should be adjusted by DAC OFFSET menu in TVB590S or TVB593 or TVB597 V2.x.An optimized value of the DAC I/Q offset is selected based on the quality of RF frequency. The DAC OFFSET menu is enabled when TVB593 or TVB597 V2.x boards are detected. Refer the example instruction.

<Tuning DAC I/Q OFFSET value at RF freq 450MHz with Spectrum Analyzer>step1. Connect RF OUT port of TVB59x board to a spectrum analyzer by a BNC cable.

step2. Set the RF Frequency as 450MHz

step3. Select DAC OFFSET menu.

Step5. Adjust the DAC I/Q offset value to minimize the LO leakage signal on watching the spectrum analyzer. The proper DAC I/Q OFFSET value can be minimize the LO leakage signal. At first, increase or decrease the I OFFSET value to be the lowest LO leakage signal. And then increase or decrease the Q OFFSET value to be the lowest LO leakage signal. But it is not important the order of I/Q adjustment.

<Indirect tuning DAC I/Q OFFSET value without Spectrum Analyzer>

If user want to adjust DAC I/Q OFFSET value without spectrum analyzer, it needs to prepare the receiver that can be displayed the RF quality (SNR or C/N value).

It is possible to adjust DAC I/Q OFFSET value indirectly on watching SNR or C/N value of the receiver.

At first, increase or decrease the DAC I OFFSET value to be higher SNR or C/N value, and then increase or decrease the DAC Q OFFSET value to be higher SNR or C/N value. Note that the MODULATION MODE should be NONE, and the order of I/Q adjustment is not important.

FIG. MODULATION MODE : NONE

Pause is supported in case of playing file.
