Differential I/Q output (R&S
®
SMU-B16 option)
One R&S
®
SMU-B16 option can be installed; the I/Q output signals are available either for path A or B.
This option is not compatible with rear-panel outputs (R&S
®
SMU-B81 and R&S
®
SMU-B82 options).

Digital baseband output (R&S
®
SMU-B18 option)
The R&S
®
SMU-B18 option makes digital I/Q signals available on the rear panel of the instrument. The digital I/Q output can be used
for the lossless connection of the R&S
®
SMU200A to the digital I/Q input of other Rohde & Schwarz instruments (e.g. R&S
®
AMU200A
baseband signal generator and fading simulator). One R&S
®
SMU-B18 can be installed.

With source ‘user-defined’, the sample rate must be entered via the parameter ‘sample
rate’, no I/Q data clock being necessary. With source ‘digital I/Q out’ or ‘digital I/Q in’,
the sample rate will be estimated on the basis of the applied I/Q data clock.
