Abstract
The operation of a second-generation optical frequency synthesizer that provides digital random access to every frequency of the 1-THz tuning range of the laser with a resolution of 20 MHz is discussed. The synthesizer´s insensitivity to frequency drifts of the laser and its cold-start operation from an optical frequency reference are described
