Specifications
Specifications describe the instrument¡¦s warranted performance. Non-warranted
values are described as typical. All specifications apply after a
30-minute warm-up phase with 50 Ω source/load resistance and separate
channels. All specifications are valid from 0¢XC to 55¢XC ambient temperature.

Timing Characteristics
Measured at 50% amplitude at fastest transitions, in continuous mode,
and 50 Ω source impedance.

[1] If the startable oscillator (VCO) is used (PLL not active).
[2] Changing of amplitude may add 0.5 ns.

[3] Width accuracy specification is valid up to 5.5 Vpp amplitude. Above this amplitude, the width will typically increase up to 300ps.

Burst Count: 2 to 65536 (single or double pulses).
Delay: Delay, phase, or % of period.
Double pulse delay: Double pulse and delay are mutually exclusive.
Duty cycle: Set between 0.1% and 95% (subject to width limits; 99.9% with over programming).

Transition times:

These can be entered as leading/trailing edge or % of width. Leading and trailing edges are
independent within one of the following overlapping segments (1:20 ratio):
5 ns - 20 ns, 10 ns - 200 ns, 100 ns - 2 µs, 1µs - 20 µs, 10 µs - 200 µs, 100 µs - 2 ms,
1 ms - 20 ms, 10 ms - 200 ms.

Output timing fidelity: Period, delay, and width are continuously variable without any output glitches or dropouts.
Repeatability: Is typically four times better than accuracy.
