240 GHz band
Array: Same as runs4,5,6. NICA 8e, 20nm Al IRAM. LO 1.955GHz, power per tone -50dBm (at cryostat input).
Pixels: pitch 1600 x 1600 micron. 224 pixels on design (16x16 array minus the corners). About 190 useful pixels.
Cold electronics: SiGe Caltech amplifier "Florence" (gain 40dB, 1dB compression point 0dBm integrated power, Noise T around 6K).
Warm electronics: NIKEL01. RF source 192.168.1.196 (IFR 2024 Leasametric). 0dB attenuation at cryo IN. DAC 2, niv 3. VLF2500 low-pass filter at cryostat input.
Optics and spectrum: Same optical configuration as run 4 and 5. One filter (LPE 9cm-1) less compared to run 6. Peaking at 240 GHz.
