Spectral purity
Specification
Harmonics Typically better than −30 dBc for levels up to +7 dBm,
typically better than −25 dBc for levels 6 dB below the maximum specified output.
Non-harmonics (offsets >
3 kHz) Better than −70 dBc for carrier frequencies up to 1 GHz,
better than −64 dBc for carrier frequencies above 1 GHz,
better than −60 dBc for carrier frequencies above 2 GHz.
Residual FM (FM off) Less than 4.5 Hz RMS in a 300 Hz to 3.4 kHz bandwidth at a carrier frequency of
1 GHz.
SSB phase noise Better than −124 dBc/Hz at 20 kHz offset from a 470 MHz carrier.
Typically −121 dBc/Hz at 20 kHz offset from a 1 GHz carrier.
