Appendix B: Performance Verification (AWG710B)
B-46 AWG710&AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform Generator User Manual
External Clock Input and VCO Out Output Tests
These procedures check the external clock input function and the VCO output
function of the AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform Generator.
Do the following steps to install the test hookup and set the test equipment controls:
1. Use a 50 Ω SMA coaxial cable and an SMA(Fe)–BNC(Fe) adapter to connect
the AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform Generator VCO OUT output connector to
the oscilloscope CH1 input connector.
2. Use a 50 Ω SMA coaxial cable to connect the AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform
Generator EXT CLOCK IN input connector to the signal generator output
connector.
