TIMING, TEST & MEASUREMENT Multi-Channel Measurement System (MMS) Flexibility, Reliability and Precision Symmetricom’s Multi-Channel Measurement System (MMS) is a flexible, multi-channel system that is ideal for a full production environment. This advanced instrument offers customers a cost effective way to measure the phase difference between multiple continuous wave RF signals, enabling expansion from a base configuration of four signal inputs to a full 28 in a single chassis. Chassis can be added to increase signal measurement capacity. The MMS samples all inputs once every second and computes the phase difference relative to the 32 MHz internal oscillator. The system can also be configured to measure as many as three different frequencies simultaneously, with a frequency range of one to 20 MHz. Expansion is made easy by the fact that the base system is designed for mounting in a 19-inch rack. Customers can increase the number of additional inputs simply by KEY BENEFITS • Flexibility: Can Measure Up to 28 RF Signal Inputs in a Single Chassis • Multiple Frequency Inputs: Handles Up to Three Different Frequencies, with Eight Inputs Each • High Resolution: Less than 100 Femtoseconds • Low Noise Performance: Less than 5.0 x 10-13 Allan Deviation at 5 MHz (1 Second) • Standard 19-inch Rack Mount Chassis • Easily Expandable by Incorporating More Modules • Reliable: Network-based Fault Reporting and Dual Cooling Fans • Gr • • Network Based Phase Data Output aphical Interface Available via Ethernet Connection to PC adding more standard modules, with four inputs available per module. The modular nature of the Multi-Channel Measurement System makes the product ideal for a range of customer needs, and the ability to add modules as production demands increase streamlines the resulting ramp-up. DATABASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM The powerful relational database management system from Symmetricom augments the Multi-Channel Measurement System’s capabilities by enabling storage of as many as three years of one-second data and—through an ODBC/SQL interface—helps retrieve data rapidly.
