Other module and instrument placements can be used, but this configuration
optimizes speed and makes cabling simpler for phase coherent configuration.
The M9300A PXIe Frequency Reference must be installed in slot 10 for proper
time synchronization between instruments. For more information, see
the M9300A Frequency Reference
Cabling is different for time-synchronization-only (independent LO) configuration
and phase-coherent (shared LO) configuration. See the following sections for
cabling information.
Time-Synchronized Only, Multi-Channel PXIe VSA (Independent LO)
When phase coherence is not required, cable the instrument as follows for time
synchronized multi-channel operation for independently tunable channels.
8-Channel Independent LO Cable Connections:
– Primary 100 MHz connection (8121-2175, long SMB-SMB); chassis
sync; 10 MHz distribution
– Secondary 100 MHz and IF connections (8120-5091, short SMB-SMB)
– LO distribution connections (W1312-20237)
– PCIe cable (Y1202A); trigger cables
