5.1 Typical Phase Noise Characteristic

Figure 6-1 shows a typical phase noise performance for 156.25MHz reference clock input from the SMA100B.

LMKDB1204EVM was configured in cascade mode to get these measurements, which were obtained by following these steps:

  1. SMA100B → LMKDB1204EVM input. Then, LMKDB1204EVM to secondary LMKDB1204 EVM. This was done to get a fast slew rate at the input. Other methods like clipping a circuit can be used to get a desired slew rate and square wave form as well outputted from the SMA100B.
  2. Output phase noise is measured through a Balun to the differential waveform from the LMKDB1204 into a single-ended waveform for the phase noise analyzer.
