Applications for AWG70000A Series and SourceXpress® Spread Spectrum Clocking Datasheet synthesize large waveforms and leaving the AWG70000A instruments free for continued testing. The easy to use graphical user interface integrates seamlessly with the Tektronix AWG70000A series user interface and the SourceXpress PC application. Precisely controlled modulation Spread Spectrum Clocking (SSC) allows for modulation to be added with precisely controlled profile, spread, deviation, and df/dt. It supports Triangular, Sinusoidal, user defined frequency spreading schemes that can be added to the base pattern. Requirements The Tektronix Spread Spectrum Clocking (SSC) license unlocks the SSC feature provided in the High Speed Serial application plug-in (available for the AWG70000A Series Arbitrary Waveform Generators or the SourceXpress® application software) adding the ability to add SSC modulation. Plug-in installed with SourceXpress on PC: SourceXpress software version 5.2 or greater PC operating systems: Windows 7 (64 bit), Windows 8 (64 bit), Windows 10 (64 bit) Plug-in installed on AWG70000A Series instrument: AWG70000A firmware version 5.2 or greater Full support for common modulation profiles: The Spread Spectrum Clocking feature supports Triangular, Sinusodial, Up-/Down-/Centerfrequency spreading schemes. Offline Mode: Plug-ins are designed to also run on an external PC via the SourceXpress PC application, thereby reducing the time taken to
