Hi
True, but you can do a fairly simple filter to separate the 250 KHz note you
don't want from the 8 KHz highest frequency that you do want. There are a lot
of ADC's that will do that for you with their built in filtering.

Karen,
I still have maybe another half an hour of work to do.
If I can wake up to be on the call I will. I'd say there might be a 50%
chance I'll make it...

If you want a low noise mixer use a varicap mixer. A varicap has no
ohmic characteristics thus
no Johnson noise.
Secondly, You can create low noise harmonics using a vaicap multiplier
or a nonlinear transmission
line using inductors and nonlinear capacitors (varicaps). NIST has been
Hello Time-nuts,
I have to do a phase noise measurement and I'm wondering if anyone here has any
ideas on that. We have to measure the phase noise of a 125kHz carrier (5Vp-p
signal level). The measurement system should have a noise floor that is
-164dBc/Hz at a distance of 1kHz to 8kHz away
Hi
Just about any of the high speed CMOS parts should work. A 74AC86 is about the
earliest part I would trust. Any of the fast logic families that came after
that should do equally well.

Isn't the FSUP a 110K euros equipment 20Hz-50GHz capable? 125KHz shouldn't

impressive but too limited test time to appreciate fully.

For phase noise the frequency range is 1MHz to 8/26.5/50GHz
The spectrum analyzer works from 20Hz to max.

Yes, I have taken a look and the FSUP is 1MHz min at the signal analyzer.
Timepod? No, 500KHz min... an RS FAM modulation analyzer?

Hi
Digitizing two signals and winding up 170 db down is maybe a bit more
complicated than just going to quadrature and getting rid of the need to do
so…. at least for a one off application.

You might be surprised by the noise floor of an XOR run at 125 KHz. They
are quite good at that low a frequency.

An XOR, unlike a mixer, does not have a null when the
phases are in quadrature. This is the fundamental problem
with using it as a phase detector.
