ADC Clock
Fixed 103.68 MHz
Sample Rate Control
IF: 103.68 MHz
IQ: Variable 6328.125 S/s to 85 MS/s or 51.84 MS/s with LVDS out-
put enabled
Sample Rate Resolution
0.1 Hz when the sample rate is enterred as a real number
Sample rate can be entered as a fraction made up of integers
Sample Rate Accuracy
As per 10 MHz ref(1)
(1) add ±2 µHz when using generic resampling mode
Amplitude Flatness (correction on)
Flatness correction on: 0.25 dB to 33 MHz, 0.1 dB across center
5 MHz
Phase Flatness (typical with correction on)
0.03 radians pk-pk to 33 MHz
Data Output
A sample data block (equal to the data capture length) can be stored
to the memory internal to the 3030 and then transferred to the con-
troller via the PCI bus. Sample data can be continuously streamed out
of the LVDS connector.
IF data samples have 16 bit resolution. IQ data samples can be 16 or
32 bit resolution.
Data Transfer Rate
Typically 10 Mwords/s (a word is 32 bits long)
IQ and IF block data transfer when using 2.2 GHz embedded CPU run-
ning windows XP
Sample Memory
128 M x 16 bit samples
