Hi all, Marcus,

I continue trying to generate the square signal as a clock but now by means of a FPGA.

The square signal, that I generated, has *a period of 100 ns and a Vpp of 0.65 V (in attached). *These values are correct in order to feed a USRP?

Thanks in advance. Best regards,
Alejandro
That signal looks good to me.

    Hi Marcus,

    Thanks a lot! What GPSDO do you recommend? We need to buy one.

    Best regards,
    Alejandro
    Most Ettus customers with more than a single USRP tend to use the
    Octoclock-G:

        Hi all, Marcus,

        Thanks for the answer, it was really useful. Now, I am
        trying to generate the 10Mhz signal using a vector signal
        generator, but the signal is nor really pure because the
        signal generator bandwidth is only 60MHz. Also, the Vpp of
        the signal is 1.4 V, is it correct?

        If someone can see the signal (in attached) and tell me if I
        can use it as an external clock, it will be really helpful.

        Best regards,
        Alejandro
        What is the stability of your vector signal generator?  I
        suspect that it's much worse than the on-board clocks.

        You'd do better to use an external GPSDO to feed to your two
        X310.

                Dear community,

                I would like to add an external clock to two USRP in
                order to have the same clock discarding possible
                synchronization issues. The desirable frequency of
                the clock would be 184 MHz (compatible with LTE).

                And I was wondering about what will be the possible
                solutions:

                --> It is possible to use a sine signal with a
                desirable frequency as an external clock? In this
                case what will the amplitude of the signal be?
                Unfortunately, I do not have a PWM generator in
                order to use it as a clock.

                --> It is possible to use another USRP as an
                external clock using a transmit basic daughterboard ?

                Thanks you so much in advance.

                Best regards,
                Alejandro

            X310 supports an external clock already, via the 10MHz
            front-panel input.   The master clock (which can be
            184.32Mhz, to support LTE) is then derived
              from that.   Just feed a 10Mhz clock to all your X310s.
