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

Could you please post an image of the situation, showing the spur levels?

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.
