Keysight 70310A Precision Frequency Reference

Overview

The Keysight 70310A is a precision frequency reference module designed as a 1-slot plug-in for the 70001A mainframe. It provides precision 10 MHz and 100 MHz reference signals for use with Keysight 70000 systems and other instruments. The internal ovenized oscillator ensures phase-locked reference signals with excellent stability over both time and temperature, enhancing overall system frequency accuracy.

Key Features

• Precision 10 MHz and 100 MHz reference signals
• Phase-locked to internal ovenized oscillator for superior stability
• Improved frequency accuracy and reduced aging rate
• 1-slot wide module for 70001A mainframe
• Option 002: Low-cost version without ovenized oscillator but retains external reference input

Applications

• High-precision frequency reference for modular spectrum analyzer systems
• Enhanced signal detection through narrow-span tuning
• External reference input for house standard synchronization (with Option 002)
