External high frequency band input
Configuration
Wide band low deviation external modulation input. External input is summed with SJ1, SJ2, and RJ. High
frequency band stress is not available when either low frequency PJ or external is selected.
DC to at least 350 MHz, determined by high frequency modulator. –3 dB BW » 320 MHz
peak sum of all SJ, RJ and external input applied to high frequency modulation input is limited. Refer to SJ
modulation range specification or Figures 25 and 26.
