2.3.2.2.1 Clock Reference

There are two options for the clock reference input:

  • The first and preferred option is an external clock reference. The external clock reference allows connection to the desired target clock of the final design and also minimizes the potential effect of the clock reference during characterization of the clock signal path performance. For the tests in this document, an oscillator (100 MHz) from Wenzel is used as a very low phase noise clock source.
  • The second option is to use an onboard clock reference from an industrial grade oscillator. This design uses the programmable clock generator LMK61E2. This device helps with evaluating the sub-system without need of extensive test equipment. LMK61E2 is intended for testing purposes only and has no defined radiation performance.
