Hi Experts
Since January, I 'm playing with my own 14bit Red Pitaya.
I enjoy all the apps like scope or spectrum analyzer.
Now I'd like to measure my antenna by the VNA from Pavel.
First, I would simply use the bridge with 3x 50 Ohm-resistors and the antenna impedance as the 4th resistor. The signal is picked up via 1:1 transformer.
To get the references for the VNA, I have to short circiut the antenna.
Then the load for OUT1 will be 33 Ohms, (50+50)||(50+0)=33
Having no schematics available, I need to ask here:
Will I destroy the output amplifyer? What is the limit of output current allowed?
Thanks for each helping input.
Dieter

Re: max allowed output load
Take a look at this part of the documentation.

Re: max allowed output load
Amike88,
thanks for your reply.
Unfortunately, I couldn't find the desired info in that part of the docu.
except the value of the Output Voltage of +-1V.
In between, I got info about the output amplifier used in Red Pitaya .
It should be the LT6200CS6.
Looking into the data sheet , you see that it can deliver:
Short-Circuit Current (depneding on cooling)
VS = 5V min ±60 typ ±90mA
VS = 3V min ±50 typ ±80mA
1V output at 33 ohm ~33mA.
So it seems to be not a problem.
