IMD Measurement
Test Signal Compatibility
SMPTE & MOD Any combination of 40 Hz–1 kHz (LF)
and 240 Hz–60 kHz (HF), mixed in
any ratio from 1:1 to 10:1 (LF:HF)
LF tone must be 1/6 • HF tone.
DFD & CCIF Any two-tone combination with mean
frequency of 250 kHz–60 kHz and a
difference frequency of 80 Hz–2.0 kHz
F
mean
= (F1 + F2)/2.
F
diff
= |F2 - F1|
F
mean
must be ≥6 • F
diff
IMD Measured
SMPTE Amplitude modulation of HF tone. Measurement BW is typ. 40–750 Hz.
MOD d2, d3, d2+d3, or d2+d3+d4+d5 Use “d2+d3” for measurements per
IEC 60268
DFD d2, d3, d2+d3, or d2+d3+d4+d5 Use “d2+d3” for measurements per
IEC 60268
CCIF d2 only “CCIF” is an archaic form of DFD that
measures only the d2 product. CCIF
uses a different 0 dB reference giving
readings 2x higher than DFD.
Measurement Range 0 to 20%
Accuracy ±0.5 dB
Residual IMD
1,2,3
SMPTE & MOD ≤-92 dB [0.0025%], 4:1 mix ratio
DFD ≤-100 dB [0.0010%]
Frequency Measurement
Range 5 Hz to 90 kHz
Accuracy ±0.0003% [3 ppm] V
in
must be 5 mV.
Resolution 6 digits
Phase Measurement
Ranges –90 to +270, ±180, or 0 to 360 deg
Accuracy ±0.2 deg, 5 Hz to 5 kHz;
±0.8 deg, 5 kHz to 20 kHz;
±2.0 deg, 20 kHz to 50 kHz
V
in
must be 5 mV with dc coupling,
both channels. Accuracy degrades
below 50 Hz with ac coupling.
Resolution 0.001 deg
