Input impedance: 1 MΩ or 50 Ω

Phase setting resolution: (360/232) degrees

Phase noise:

Int. reference: <0.0001° rms at 1 kHz (100 ms, 12 dB/oct)

Ext. reference: (typ)<0.001° rms at 1 kHz (100 ms, 12 dB/oct)

Demodulator:

DC stability: Digital output values have no offset drift

Time constants: 1 µs to 30 ks

Low pass filters: Typical RC-type filters or advanced Gaussian/Phase-Linear filters

Filter slope: 6, 12, 18 or 24 dB/oct rolloff

Internal Oscillator:

Frequency: 1 mHz to 500 kHz

Frequency accuracy: 25 ppm + 30 µHz (with internal timebase)

External timebase: 10 MHz timebase input/output on rear panel

Frequency resolution: 6 digits or 0.1 mHz (whichever is greater)

Sine Output:

Outputs: Differential or single-ended

Output impedance: 50 Ω source

Amplitude resolution: 3 digits or 1 nV, whichever is greater

DC offset: ±5 V, differential or common mode

Offset resolution: 3 digits or 0.1 mV, whichever is greater

Output limit: ±6 V, sum of DC offset and peak amplitude

Data:

Data channels: 4 data channels are displayed and graphed (green, blue, yellow, orange)
