Frequency reference
Accuracy ± [(time since last adjustment x aging rate) + temperature stability + calibration accuracy]
Total aging ± 1 x 10 –7 / year
± 1.5 x 10 –7 / 2 years
Temperature stability
20 to 30 °C
Full temperature range
± 1.5 x 10 –8
± 5 x 10 –8
Achievable initial
calibration accuracy
± 4 x 10 –8
Example frequency reference
accuracy 1 year after last
adjustment
= ± (1 x 1 x 10 –7 + 5 x
10 –8 + 4 x 10 –8 )
= ± 1.9 x 10 –7
Residual FM ≤ (0.25 Hz x N) p-p in 20 ms (nominal)
Frequency readout accuracy (start, stop, center, marker)
± (marker frequency x frequency reference accuracy + 0.25 % x span + 5 % x RBW + 2 Hz + 0.5 x horizontal resolution 1 )
Marker frequency counter
Accuracy ± (marker frequency x frequency reference accuracy + 0.100 Hz)
Delta counter accuracy ± (delta frequency x frequency reference accuracy + 0.141 Hz)
Counter resolution 0.001 Hz
Frequency span (FFT and swept mode)
Range 0 Hz (zero span), 10 Hz to maximum frequency of instrument
Resolution 2 Hz
Accuracy
Stepped / Swept
FFT
± (0.25 % x span + horizontal resolution)
± (0.10 % x span + horizontal resolution)
1. Horizontal resolution is span/(sweep points – 1).
