Can 33500B do PM (and BPSK) modulation with an ARB as the carrier signal?

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)SummaryExplain why 33500B can do PM (and BPSK) modulation with an ARB.QuestionCan 33500B do PM (and BPSK) modulation with an ARB as the carrier signal?AnswerIn PM (and BPSK) modulation with an ARB as the carrier signal, the modulation applies to the sample clock, not the arb waveform. In other words, the entire arb is not phase modulated, but rather each individual sample. Thus, phase modulation will look like jitter on the samples. This is also mentioned in the front panel help by pressing and holding the 'Modulate' key.
