1.3 Key Specifications and Benefits
The SIGNAL RECOVERY Model 7230 represents a further significant advance in
the application of DSP technology in the design of a lock-in amplifier.
Key specifications include:
 Frequency range:
Standard unit 0.001 Hz to 120.000 kHz
With 7230/99 option 0.001 Hz to 250.000 kHz
 Voltage sensitivity: 10 nV to 1 V full-scale
 Current input mode sensitivities: 10 fA to 1 µA full-scale
10 fA to 10 nA full-scale
 Line frequency rejection filter
 Dual phase demodulator with X-Y and R- outputs
 Very low phase noise of < 0.0001
°
rms
 Output time constant: 10 µs to 100 ks
 5-digit output readings
 Dual reference mode - allows simultaneous measurement of two signals at
different reference frequencies
 Single and dual harmonic mode - allows simultaneous measurement of up to two
different harmonics of a signal
 Tandem demodulation capability - suitable for double demodulation experiments
that would otherwise require two lock-in amplifiers
 Virtual reference mode - allows reference free measurements
 Direct Digital Synthesizer (DDS) oscillator with variable amplitude and
frequency
 Oscillator frequency and amplitude sweep generator
 Voltage controlled oscillator frequency or amplitude
 8-bit programmable digital I/O port for external system control
 Four configurable DAC outputs which can be used as analog signal outputs
and/or as auxiliary DAC outputs
 Four auxiliary ADC inputs
 Full range of auto functions
 Standard USB, Ethernet, and RS232 interfaces
 100,000 point internal curve storage buffer
