(reference input)
Characteristics Description
Connector type SMA on rear panel.
Input impeda

50 Ω (AC coupled).
Input ampli
tude
–5 dBm to +5 d
Bm.
Fixed frequ
ency range
10 MHz, ±40 Hz.
Variable f
requency range
35 MHz to 240 MHz.
Acceptabl
e frequency drift while the instrument is operating is ± 0.1%.
Table 23: Clock Out
Characteristics Description
The external clock output is a copy of an internal clock generator that is used to create the
DAC sample clock. This clock always operates in the octave range specified below. It is
multiplied and divided to create the effective DAC sampling rate.
Connector type SMA on rear panel.
Output impedance 50 Ω AC coupled.
Output amplitude
+3 dBm to +10 dBm.
Frequency range
2.5GHzto5GHz.
For sample rates lower than 2.5 GS/s the output frequency is: Fout = SR * 2n ; where n is an
integer that gives Fout between 2.5 GHz and 5 GHz.
Frequency resolution
