The CG635 generates extremely stable square wave clocks
between 1 µHz and 2.05 GHz. The instrument’s high frequency
resolution, low jitter, fast transition times, and flexible output
levels make it ideal for use in the development and testing of
virtually any digital component, system or network.
Clean clocks are critical in systems that use high-speed ADCs
or DACs. Spurious clock modulation and jitter create artifacts
and noise in acquired signals and in reconstructed waveforms.
Clean clocks are also important in communications systems
and networks. Jitter, wander, or frequency offsets can lead to
high bit error rates, or to a total loss of synchronization. The
CG635 can provide the clean, stable clocks required for the
most critical applications.
Output Drivers
The CG635 has several clock outputs. The front-panel Q and
–Q outputs provide complementary square waves at standard
logic levels (ECL, PECL, LVDS or +7 dBm). The square
wave amplitude may also be set from 0.2 V to 1.0 V, with an
offset between –2 V and +5 V. These outputs operate from
DC to 2.05 GHz, have transition times of 80 ps, have a source
impedance of 50 Ω, and are intended to drive 50 Ω loads.
Output levels double when these outputs are unterminated.
The front-panel CMOS output provides square waves at
standard logic levels. The output may also be set to any
