Measure OIP2 of Device Under Test

R2026b
Open Script

Use the OIP2 Testbench block to verify the output second-order intercept (OIP2) of a device under test (DUT).

Connect the blocks as shown in the model.

Set the parameters for DUT and the testbench.

Amplifier block:

  • Available power gain — 10 dB

  • Intercept points convention — Input

Mixer block:

  • Available power gain — 5 dB

  • Local oscillator frequency — 2.0 GHz

  • Add Image Reject filter — on

  • Intercept points convention — Output

  • IP2 — 32 dBm

  • Filter type — Highpass

  • Implementation — Constant per carrier

  • Passband edge frequency — 2.05 GHz

OIP2 Testbench block:

  • Input frequency (Hz) — 2.1e9

  • Output frequency (Hz) — 0.1e9

  • Simulate noise (both stimulus and DUT internal) — off

Run the model. You will see that the display shows an OIP2 value of 32 dBm since the OIP2 was specified only in the Mixer block.
