Connecting the Clock Source and the Device Under Test
As shown in Figure 10- 3 on page 258, there are numerous ways to provide a common frequency
reference to the system components (signal generator, N5102A module, and the device under test).
Figure 10- 8 shows an example setup where the signal generator supplies the common frequency
reference and the N5102A module is providing the clock to the device.
CAUTION The Device Interface connector on the interface module communicates using high speed
digital data. Use ESD precautions to eliminate potential damage when making
connections.
