Low Phase Noise Reference Clock Signals & Verigy’s Port Scale Pure Clock Applications requiring a very low phase noise reference clock signal to be applied to the DUT for certain measurements often challenge today’s ATEs. This paper outlines why low phase noise clocks are necessary, the pros and cons of possible solutions that exist on the V93000, and disadvantages of using on-board crystal for lowest phase noise clock generation. It then provides technical details and performance measurement results of the Port Scale Pure Clock along with detailed comparison to other approaches for reference clock generation. |
