Digital channel addition
Trigger modes
Channel 1 can be logically combined with
channel 2 (XOR) as shown in Figure 2. The
source impedance remains 50 Ω. Output 2
is still available in this case.

Continuous: Continuous pulses, bursts or
patterns.
External started: Each active input transi-
tion (rising, falling edge) generates pulses,
bursts or patterns.
External gated: The active input level
(high or low) enables pulses, bursts or
patterns. On an external gate signal the
output is immediately stopped, that means
the last cycle will not be completed.
Manual: Simulates an external input
signal with push of a front panel button.

Clock input/PLL reference and
external input
Connectors: SMA (f) 3.5 mm
Input impedance: 50 Ω
Termination voltage: -2.10 V to 3.30 V
Input sensitivity: < 400 mV typ.
Max. input voltage: -3 V to + 6 V
Input transitions: < 20 ns
Only valid for clock input/PLL reference
One input is used for clock input or for the
PLL reference alternatively.
Reference: The internal PLL is locked to
the 1,2,5 or 10 MHz. The output frequency
of the instrument must be larger than the
clock input/PLL reference frequency.

1. Range depends on segment length resolution, see previous table.
External clock: The output period is
determined by the signal at clock input.
Clock input frequency: 170 kHz to 660 MHz
(at 50% ±10% duty cycle).
Delay from input trigger output: 21 ns.
Delay from input to output: 53 ns.
Threshold: ac coupled. Only valid for external
input.
External input: Used for external started or
gated.
Input frequency: DC to 330MHz.
Delay from external input to trigger output:
22ns + 0 to 1 period.
Delay from external input to output:
54 ns + 0 to 1 period.
Threshold: -1.4 V to +3.7 V.
Trigger output
Trigger format: One pulse per period with
50% duty cycle typical. In pattern mode the
trigger pulse can be set to mark the start of
any segment.
Output impedance: 50 Ω typical.
Level: TTL/ETTL (for frequency < 180 MHz),
1 V to GND, ECL 50 Ω to GND/-2 V, PECL
50 Ω to + 3 V.
Max. external voltage: -2 V/+3 V.
Transition times: 1.0 ns typical for TTL,
600 ps typical for ECL.
Delay from external input to trigger output:
32 ns typical.
