[0141] In this embodiment, when the user controls or checks the status of the reference processing module, the host computer and the FPGA need to communicate.

[0142] When the host computer sends a command to the FPGA, the command signal enters the FPGA through the connector J30J-9ZKP, the adapter, and the 422 adapter MAX3077E.

[0146] The user sends a command through the host computer. The command reaches the FPGA, where an IO pin is connected to the control interface of the SKY13286-359LF selector switch.

[0147] In this embodiment, the user can check the locking status of the 100MHz signal phase-locked loop. The specific method is as follows, as shown in the attached Figure 3 As shown:

[0148] The user sends instructions through the host computer, and the instructions reach the FPGA. One of the FPGA's IO pins is connected to the lock indication pin LD of the 100MHz signal phase-locked loop. When the lock is successful, the 100MHz signal phase-locked loop outputs a 100MHz signal, and the lock indication pin LD is high. When the lock fails, it is low. The level signal is transmitted to the FPGA through the IO pin, and the FPGA transmits the instruction to the host computer.

[0149] In this embodiment, the user can check the locking status of the 2.4GHz point frequency source component in the same way as checking the locking status of the 100MHz signal phase-locked loop, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 3 shown.

[0150] Principle of the external reference module: In this embodiment, the signal generator outputs a 200MHz, 10dBm signal to enter the AGC component. This AGC component does not change the signal frequency, but only changes the power. It outputs a 200MHz, 0dBm signal to enter the frequency divider AD9513. After frequency division, AD9513 outputs a 10MHz, 0dBm signal, which is attenuated and filtered and enters the selection switch SKY13286-359LF. AD9513 has 6 control pins connected to 6 FPGA IO pins. The user sends instructions to the FPGA through the host computer. The FPGA parses the instructions and changes the IO level to control the frequency division coefficient of the AD9513. When the AGC component changes the power, its STAT interface sends the locking status to the FPGA through the FPGA's IO pin. A high level of STAT indicates that the locking is successful, that is, a 0dBm power signal is output; a low level of STAT indicates that the locking fails, that is, no 0dBm power signal is output, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 3 shown.

[0151] The principle of the 100MHz signal generation module: The signal output by the selection switch SKY13286-359LF enters the 100MHz signal phase-locked loop, which outputs a 100MHz signal, which is then filtered, attenuated, amplified, and then output to the power divider A.

[0152] The principle of the 100MHz clock module is as follows: After entering power splitter A, the 100MHz signal is divided into two 100MHz signals. One signal passes through attenuator C and enters power splitter C to be divided into two 100MHz signals. The two 100MHz signals enter power splitter D and power splitter E respectively. Power splitter D and power splitter E each output two 100MHz signals. The 100MHz signal generation module outputs a total of four 100MHz clock signals that enter the frequency synthesizer module. Power splitter E is a reserved port for compatible design. It can be expanded to output two 100MHz clock signals according to project requirements in the future. Figure 3 shown.

[0153] The principle of the 10MHz clock module: the other signal output by power divider A enters power divider B, the 100MHz signal output by power divider B enters a frequency divider AD9513, the frequency divider AD9513 divides the frequency by 10 and outputs a 10MHz signal, which is filtered, attenuated, and amplified before entering power divider F. Power divider F outputs two 10MHz clock signals which enter the frequency synthesizer module, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 3 shown.

[0154] The principle of the 2.4GHz clock module: The other 100MHz signal output by power divider B enters the 2.4GHz point frequency source component after 7dB attenuation. The 2.4GHz point frequency source component outputs a 2.4GHz signal, which enters the power divider G after 0dB attenuation, amplification, and filtering. Power divider G outputs two 2.4GHz signals, one of which is output as a 2.4GHz clock signal after 3dB attenuation and enters the frequency synthesizer module. The other is attenuated by 0dB and enters the power divider H. The power divider H outputs three 2.4GHz clock signals and enters the frequency synthesizer module, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 3 shown.
