http://www.national.com 4 SMA Connectors The output clock SMA connector provides a signal thatcan be used to phase lock a signal source. Thefrequency is that of the input clock signal divided by 2.For example, with an attached CLC5958 ADC evaluationboard at 52MSPS the clock output signal will be a 2...
