Output signal

The following notes apply to the output signal characteristics:

  • The output characteristics apply to the Ch1 and Ch2 outputs.
  • Ch1 and Ch2 are independent.
  • True and complement outputs share the same settings. Differential values (true minus complement) are double those stated.
  • The output is designed to drive into a 50 Ohm load terminated to a user-provided voltage. The termination voltage must be in the range specified. For the generator to display accurate levels, the user must enter the actual termination voltage.
  • Each channel has independent delay and duration settings.

  • Spread spectrum clocking and internal clock modulation sinusoidal jitter cannot be used at the same time.

Jitter insertion

The following notes apply to the Jitter insertion specifications:

  • The pulse generators are capable of generating jitter from two different mechanisms, modulation of the internal clock source or output channel delay modulation.
  • Delay modulation sources can be either internal or external. External delay modulation is applied via an analog signal on the delay inputs (separate for each channel).
  • Modulation of the internal clock is applied to both channels of a two-channel instrument.
  • Delay modulation jitter may be applied to each channel independently with the ability to apply different jitter functions to each channel.
  • Internal clock and delay modulation jitter can be applied in any combination. The combined peak-to-peak amplitude of delay modulation jitter (deterministic waveforms, random, and external) is limited to 0.5 UI.
  • The trigger output is also subject to the internal clock modulation jitter but not delay modulation jitter.
  • The bandwidth of the delay modulation jitter depends on the clock frequency. Below 300 MHz clock frequency, the delay modulation jitter insertion bandwidth will be reduced. Jitter insertion signal frequencies approaching ½ of the clock frequency or higher are not recommended and can result in unexpected behavior (due to in-band mix products / undersampling).
  • Spread spectrum clocking and internal clock modulation sinusoidal jitter cannot be used at the same time.
  • The following figure shows a plot of the limit points (linearly interpolated on a log-log scale between stated frequency points) for internal clock modulation sinusoidal jitter:

Trigger types
When in Pulse mode
Continuous
One pulse per period of the internal clock or Clk In
Ext In, Edge
One pulse per valid edge on the Ext In input. The latency between the Ext In signal and the output signal is repeatable (deterministic) and is adjustable with the delay control. The Ext In signal can vary from single shot to 800 MHz. Clk In is not used.
Ext In, Level
The active Ext In level enables continuous pulses. The Pulse period is set by internal clock or Clk In. The clock frequency is limited to 800 MHz. The latency between trigger source and signal output is not fixed or deterministic.
Remote/Manual
A trigger command from the remote interface or front panel generates a single pulse. Clk In is not used.
When in Burst or Pattern mode
Continuous
Trigger circuitry is always armed. Clock can be internal or Clk In. Bursts or Patterns are continuously generated.
Ext In, Edge
The active transition on Ext In generates one burst or pattern. The Burst or Pattern pulse period is set by internal clock or Clk In. There is no fixed latency between trigger source and signal output.
Ext In, Level
The active Ext In level enables continuous bursts or patterns. On an inactive input level, a burst or pattern in progress will finish before halting. The Burst or Pattern pulse period is set by internal clock or Clk In. The latency between trigger source and signal output is not fixed or determinant.
Remote/Manual
A trigger command from the remote interface or front panel generates a single burst or pattern. The Burst or Pattern pulse period is set by internal clock or Clk In.
When in External width mode
No triggering
Outputs follow the Ext In signal. The trigger output is not active.

Output modes
Pulse mode
Pulse mode delivers a single pulse per trigger event. The pulse timing is programmable in repetition rate, duration, and delay.
Pattern mode
Pattern mode delivers a defined pattern per trigger event. The pattern may be presented in either NRZ, RZ, or R1 formats. In NRZ mode the crossing point is programmable. In RZ and R1 mode the duration of the pattern pulse is programmable.
Burst mode
Burst mode delivers a ‘burst’ of n pulses per trigger event.
External width mode
External width mode delivers pulse levels that follow the edges of the “Ext In” input. A rising edge causes the output to go high, while a falling edge causes the output to go low.
