The Giga-tronics GT-SRM100A System Reference Module is designed for use with the Giga-tronics two-channel (GT-CHSIS2A) or four-channel (GT-CHSIS4A) chassis. The GT-SRM100A occupies a dedicated chassis slot and utilizes a coherent analog synchronization bus to deliver the precision frequency reference signals required by the Giga-tronics GT-ASGM18A / GT-ASAM18A Advanced Signal Generator / Analyzer. The GT-SRM100A supports up to four Advanced Signal Generators / Analyzers in a single chassis. This arrangement eliminates a host of inter-module front panel cabling and allows the signal generators / analyzers to exhibit superior phase stability and coherence between channels as compared to stacking traditional bench-top sources.
The GT-SRM100A System Reference Module accepts 10 MHz or 100 MHz external frequency references for phase locking the GT-SRM100A to external equipment and it provides 10 MHz and 100 MHz frequency reference outputs for phase locking multiple Giga-tronics chassis in high channel count applications.
