Frequency modulation

Maximum deviation

N x 8 MHz

Resolution

0.1% of deviation or 1 Hz, whichever is greater

Deviation accuracy

< ± 3.5% of FM deviation + 20 Hz
(1 kHz rate, deviations < N x 800 kHz)

Modulation frequency response

Path

Rates (at 100 kHz deviation)
1 dB Bandwidth

3 dB Bandwidth, typical

FM 1

dc/20 Hz to 100 kHz

dc/5 Hz to 10 MHz

FM 2

dc/20 Hz to 100 kHz

dc/5 Hz to 1 MHz

dc FM

12

carrier offset

±0.1% of set deviation + (N x 8 Hz)

Distortion

< 1% (1 kHz rate, deviations < N x 800 kHz)

Sensitivity

±1 Vpeak for indicated deviation

Paths

FM1 and FM2 are summed internally for composite
modulation. Either path may be switched to any
one of the modulation sources: Ext1, Ext2,
internal1, internal2. The FM2 path is limited to a
maximum rate of 1 MHz. The FM2 path must be set
to a deviation less than FM1.

Phase modulation

Maximum deviation

N x 80 radians
(N x 8 radians in high-bandwidth mode)

Resolution

0.1% of set deviation

Deviation accuracy

< ±5% of deviation + 0.01 radians
(1 kHz rate, normal BW mode)

Modulation frequency response

Mode

Maximum Deviation

Rates (3 dB BW)

Normal BW

N x 80 rad

dc – 100 kHz

High BW

N x 8 rad

dc – 1 MHz (typ)

Distortion

< 1 % (1 kHz rate, THD, dev < N x 80 rad,
normal BW mode)

Sensitivity

±1 Vpeak for indicated deviation

Path

FM1 and FM2 are summed internally for
composite modulation. Either path may be switched
to any one of the modulation sources: Ext1, Ext2,
internal1, internal2. The FM2 path must be
set to a deviation less than FM1.
