intermodulation ratio is illustrated in Figure 22, which shows product
output levels plotted versus the level of the fundamental output for
two equal strength output signals at different frequencies. The upper
line shows the fundamental output plotted against itself with a 1dB to
1dB slope. The second and third order products lie below the
fundamentals and exhibit a 2:1 and 3:1 slope, respectively.
The intercept point for either product is the intersection of the
extensions of the product curve with the fundamental output.
The intercept point is determined by measuring the intermodulation
ratio at a single output level and projecting along the appropriate
product slope to the point of intersection with the fundamental.
When the intercept point is known, the intermodulation ratio can be
determined by the reverse process. The second order IMR is equal
to the difference between the second order intercept and the
fundamental output level. The third order IMR is equal to twice the
difference between the third order intercept and the fundamental
output level. These are expressed as:

second and third order intermodulation ratios in dB. The
intermodulation intercept is an indicator of intermodulation
performance only in the small signal operating range of the amplifier.
Above some output level which is below the 1dB compression point,
the active device moves into large-signal operation. At this point the
intermodulation products no longer follow the straight line output
slopes, and the intercept description is no longer valid. It is therefore
important to measure IP
compression. One must be careful, however, not to select too low
levels because the test equipment may not be able to recover the
signal from the noise. For the NE/SA5204A we have chosen an
output level of –10.5dBm with fundamental frequencies of 100.000
and 100.01MHz, respectively.
