Siglent SDS1000(X) / SDS2000(X) or LeCroy WaveAce (Blackfin) hacks?

That's sounds about right for a 2304X -3dB point.
A screenshot I've posted before on the forum plus an additional few for reference.
HP 500 MHz sig gen used for all these screenshots.
Factory SDS2304X, 100mV signal:
200 and 300 MHz shots below = 1V p-p signal
It can be seen in the 500 MHz screenshot (100mV p-p) is past the stability frequency of the internal counter.

@tautech
could you please provide a sweep picture, if your sig gen is
capable of this feature to see the flatness of the BW mod
when the caps are removed.
Thanks
Markus

Sorry I can't as I don't have an AWG that can sweep to high frequencies.
ATM 30 MHz is the best I have.
You have SSA don't you ? Maybe that will do.
markus_jlrb:
The caps are mounted between the pos and neg output
(OPHI/OPLO) of the AD8370 var gain amp.
Both lines are have round 50 ohm impedance according
to DS (100Ohm diff).
Have made a LT-Spice simulation to check the influence
of the cap in parallel to the output (Pin 8/9)
markus_jlrb:
The LT-Spice file is attached too.
To play arround, remove the .txt suffix.
The 0.95(V(n002)-V(n004) 5% recuction
is due to avoide overlapping of the red
curve.
bouth sig gens have 1V amplitude so that the
difference is 2V and the corresponding voltage
at load (ADC) should be 1V without attenuation
and influence of the cap.
As I do not know the ADC input impadance, I took
the same as the gain amp has in the hope the disign
is matching the impedances 1:1.
The C value is sweeped from 1pF to 10pF to visualize
the cap influence - BW reduction.
Markus
PS.: The simulation was made for 200MHz as I would
like to compare with my DSO.
