Infiniium 90000A Series: Highlights

Superior signal integrity, deep application analysis, better insight

The Agilent Infiniium 90000A oscilloscope helps us capture large amounts of data and
process that data record in a much shorter time. This improves our development time
and shortens our time to market.

Bill Simms, Mixed Signal Design Validation manager, NVIDIA Corp

The last time you purchased a
high-performance real-time scope,
what trade-offs did you make? To

analyze and debug next-generation,
high-speed digital and RF designs,
you wanted the lowest noise floor, the
longest capture time, and the deepest
analysis capabilities. But you couldn't
find that all in one instrument – so you
compromised.

This time, you won't have to make
trade-offs. The all-new Infiniium

DSA/DSO90000A Series scopes
deliver superior signal integrity,
barrier-breaking memory depth,
and unmatched signal analysis and
debugging. So you enjoy better insight
than ever into high-speed digital and
RF designs.

Each scope in the Infiniium 90000A
Series scopes gives you all the
industry-leading capabilities you're
looking for. You want the industry's

lowest noise floor? Superior signal
integrity is a must to make highly
accurate, repeatable measurements
you feel confident in. The 90000A
Series scopes deliver: The 12 GHz
model, for example, provides an
industry-leading low noise floor of
435 µVrms at 5 mV per division. The
longest capture time? These are the
first high-performance scopes that
can acquire one billion samples
(1 Gpts). That means you can capture
a long 25 ms record of your signal
at 40 GSa/s.

You want the deepest analysis
capabilities? Debug and

characterization speeds along with
the new InfiniiScan Plus event
identification system, based on a
world-class hardware trigger system
that can detect glitches as low as
125 ps. And if you work on high-speed
video interfaces, such as HDMI
(high-definition multimedia interface)
and DisplayPort, you'll appreciate the
standard analog HDTV triggers.

Do you just need to capture a signal
of interest? Take advantage of the

industry's only three-stage sequence
trigger system. Combining A-B
hardware triggers with InfiniiScan
software to enable triggering flexible
enough to handle almost any debug
situation.

You also get other features that make
your job quicker and easier. Trigger

with the TIE (time interval error) jitter
value lets you investigate complex

jitter phenomena with a simultaneous
analysis and debugging tool that
displays eye pattern analysis, protocol
decoding information, jitter trend,
and histogram analysis all on one
screen, for a time-correlated view. And
high-speed offload via gigabit Ethernet
and a USB 2.0 device port transfers
data at industry-leading rates for rapid
offline analysis.

Welcome to the world of
ultra-performance. With the new

Infiniium DSA/DSO90000A Series
scopes, you finally get the tool you've
always wanted for next-generation
high-speed digital and RF designs.

Infiniium 90000A Series: Design Concept

Superior signal integrity, deep application analysis, better insight

The design concept

Evaluate signal integrity. Validate
compliance. Debug and analyze designs.

When we developed the Infiniium 90000A
Series, we took a close look at the key
tasks that engineers of high-speed digital
and RF designs perform. Then we created a
series of scopes that could help you manage
each of these tasks quickly and easily.
We tapped the expertise we've acquired
during 50+ years spent advancing scope
technology. So you can finally work with an
ultra-performance scope that keeps up with
you and your leading-edge designs.

Infiniium multi-chip module isolates EMI.

To enable our scopes to operate at high
frequencies with minimal electromagnetic
interference (EMI), we relied on our expertise
in radio frequency (RF) technology. Instead
of implementing each component of a
digital circuit in a separate circuit block,
we created a multi-chip module that uses a
“Faraday Cage” to isolate EMI. The result?
High-bandwidth scopes with the lowest noise
floor in the industry.

the new world of three stage

Deep Application Analysis

Advanced integrated analysis solution

This example shows troubleshooting
the eye pattern failure of PCI EXPRESS
compliance pattern. A serial data
analyzer will quickly analyze the eye
pattern, and if there is a violation, it
will unfold it for you to see. Once you
correlate the TIE jitter to a particular
eye pattern failure, the next step of the
debug/analysis is to set up the trigger
condition in order for the Infiniium
scope to trigger on a particular TIE
value.

Triggers on a specified slope (rising, falling or alternating between rising and falling) and voltage
level on any channel or auxiliary trigger.

Trigger on rising or falling edges that cross two voltage levels in > or < the amount of time specified.
Edge transition setting from 250 ps.

The trigger is qualified by an edge. After a specified time delay between 10 ns to 10 s, a rising or
falling edge on any one selected input will generate the trigger.

The trigger is qualified by an edge. After a specified delay between 1 to 16,000,000 rising or falling
edges, another rising or falling edge on any one selected input will generate the trigger.

Triggers on glitches narrower than the other pulses in your waveform by specifying a width less than
your narrowest pulse and a polarity. Triggers on glitches as narrow as 125 ps. Glitch range settings:
< 250 ps to < 10 s.

Triggers on the line voltage powering the oscilloscope.
Trigger on a pulse that is wider or narrower than the other pulses in your waveform by specifying a

pulse width and a polarity. Triggers on pulse widths as narrow as 125 ps. Pulse width range settings:
250 ps to 10 s. Trigger point can be “end of pulse” or “time out”.

Triggers on a pulse that crosses one threshold but fails to cross a second threshold before crossing
the first again. Can be time qualified with minimum setting of 250 ps.

Trigger when a channel stays high, low, or unchanged for too long. Timeout setting: from 250 ps to
10 s.

Triggers when a specified logical combination of the channels is entered, exited, present for a
specified period of time or is within a specified time range or times out. Each channel can have a
value of High (H), Low (L) or Don’t care (X).

Pattern trigger clocked by the rising, falling or alternating between rising and falling edge of one
channel.

Triggers on setup, hold, or setup and hold violations in your circuit. Requires a clock and data signal
on any two inputs (except aux or line) channels as trigger sources. Setup and/or hold time must
then be specified.

explicit 1st-order PLL, explicit 2nd-order PLL, Fibre Channel, FlexRay receiver, FlexRay transmitter
(requires E2688A except for the constant frequency clock data recovery mode).

Software triggers on the results of the measurement values. For example, when the “pulse width”
measurement is turned on, InfiniiScan measurement software trigger triggers on a glitch as narrow
as 75 ps. When the “time interval error (TIE)” is measured, InfiniiScan can trigger on a specific TIE
value.

Software triggers on the non-monotonic edge. The non-monotonic edge is specified by setting a
hysteresis value.

Software triggers on a pulse that crosses one threshold but fails to cross a second threshold before
crossing the first again. Unlike hardware runt trigger, InfiniiScan runt trigger can be further qualified
via a hysteresis value.

Software triggers on the user defined zones on screen. Zones can be specified as either “must
intersect” or “must not intersect.” Up to four zones can be defined.
