40 M8100 Series Arbitrary Waveform Generators Getting Started Guide
2 Basic Setup for M8100A
Step 5 - Connecting the M8100 series AWG modules
Performing connections to the M8198A AWG
Connecting M8008A Clock Generator to M8198A AWG Module
Following are the possible ways to connect a M8008A clock source to the
M8198A AWG module(s):
Case 1 Connecting M8008A clock module to a single channel of the M8198A
AWG module
In this case, an M8008A clock module, one M8198A AWG modules an
M9505A AXIe chassis and the following cables are required:
• 3.5 mm, 50 cm M8199A-811 customer orderable sync cable
(M8199-61620)
• 1.85 mm, 45 cm M8199A-810 replacement channel clock cable
(M8199-61624)
Make the connections as described below:
1 Connect the M8008A Clock Generator Sync Out port with the M8198A
AWG Sync In port using the sync cable (blue cable).
2 Connect the M8008A Clock Generator Sample Clock Out port with the
M8198A AWG Clock In port for a Channel using clock cable (red
cable).
Figure 16 shows how to connect M8008A clock generator module to a
single channel of the M8198A AWG modules:
The unused output should be disabled on the M8070B software or
terminated with 50 ohms on the module hardware.
