Hello,

Also I expect that the range would be somewhat limited by the unit software, since the control word is 32-bit, same as the DDS program word with, and I don't think that the little thing would enable to program the DDS from zero to 32-bit. In any case, my idea was first to only monitor the DDS word (at serial port) and serial port offset message limits, and also to test in that way the lock range of the 5680A - this can be a bit tedious since when I programmed a 10Hz offset, the unit unlocked ant took several seconds to lock again.

Regards,

Javier

Hi

If you try to do full scale, check the range of your VCXO first. The digital 
test is much easier if you already know where your VCXO stops tuning.

I'm now gathering the unit self-updating of DDS data, that will take somewhat 
long... so I will try later or tomorrow. Since we have seen that the DDS values 
are reported back in a response to a command, it is easy to do without the need 
to have anything hooked to the SPI bus :)

Regards,

For example, the following data has been gathered:

Serial offset 00 00 00 00
DDS A word: 44 02 62 F6 = 1141007094 = 5 313 228.32219 Hz
DDS B word: 43 FD CC 8E = 1140706446 = 5 311 828.32085 Hz

Can you do a test at +/- fullscale offset as well?

This is a very exciting discovery.  Nice work!
