Hi Marcus 
well I am connecting external ref of 10MHz on Ref Input SMA connector and once 
I connect this and set my clock source for external source then we are getting 
spurios, these spurs are low but for AM,FM audio demodulation even Hz suprs can 
create probelem and that is what we are facing. Right now what we using a VCXO 
of 50ppb satbility and what we noticed that with the internal clock there was a 
shift in frequency of about 5KHz at 3GHz input while with external Ref shift 
was around 300Hz. Is it possible to switch off supply manually for internal 
oscillator and board still works?
Regards,Arun Verma

     Hi  
  We are using B205i-mini and we found that when I am sleclecting external Ref 
using set_clock_source("ëxternal"); I am getting  intermodulation components in 
Hz. I think supply for the internal oscillator is still on and it is not 
compeletly shutting down. Is there any options to switch off the suppy of 
ineternal oscillator through some API.

 There is only one clock on the B205 -- a 40MHz VCXO.   When you switch to 
"external", the FPGA implements a clock-steering
   "servo" that phase-locks that 40MHz clock to the external reference.
 
 You're probably seeing very low-level clock spurs that appear as a result of 
the servo algorithm.
