The PLL
Reference Clock
provides the
reference
frequency for the
phase-locked
loop.

Frequency
Accuracy

When using the PLL, the Frequency Accuracy of the
NI 5422 is solely dependent on the Frequency Accuracy
of the PLL Reference Clock Source.

Lock Time

≤200 ms

Frequency
Range

5 MHz to 20 MHz in increments of 1 MHz.
Default of 10 MHz.

The PLL Reference Clock Frequency has to be accurate
to ±50 ppm.

Duty Cycle
Range

40% to 60%
