Explanation
The VB8300 generates waveforms by synchronizing to the internal or external clock
signal. Of the two clock signals, you can set the frequency of the internal clock signal.
Selectable range: 300.000 kHz to 300.000000 MHz (in 1 Hz steps)
Default value: 1.000000 MHz
• You can select the internal or external reference signal for the 10-MHz reference
signal on which the internal clock signal based. For the procedure of selecting the 10-
MHz reference signal, see section 5.1.
• When the external clock signal is selected, the clock frequency specified on the
VB8300 is invalid. For the procedure of selecting the clock signal, see section 5.2.
Note
If you changed the clock frequency while waveform generation was in progress, start
waveform generation from the start of the sequence list.
