1. To within 0.1 ppm of final frequency above 250 MHz or within 100 Hz below 250 MHz.
2. With high performance pulse modulation (Option 1E6) installed, all maximum power specifications drop by 4 dB.
Specifications describe the instrument’s warranted performance and apply after a 45 minute warm-up. All specifications are valid over the signal generator’s entire
operating/environmental range while in phase noise mode 2, unless otherwise noted. Supplemental characteristics, denoted typical or nominal, provide additional
(nonwarranted) information useful in applying the instrument.
