Key trends in the electronics market
• Technologies with dramatically increased clock speeds and edge rates have emerged.
• Very fast serial differential buses are being used to save board space, reduce power and provide better noise immunity.
• Densely packed circuit boards, often with stacked daughter boards, increase the need to probe in very hard-to-reach places.
Benefits (continued)
How much bandwidth and sample rate do I need?
Bandwidth required to measure risetime with 3% error Example: 100 ps rise time (20-80%)
Maximum signal frequency content = 0.4/rise time (20-80%) Maximum signal frequency = 4 GHz
Scope bandwidth required = 1.4 x maximum frequency Required scope bandwidth = 5.6 GHz
Minimum scope sample rate required = 2.5 x bandwidth Required scope sample rate = 14 GSa/s
Key benefits of the 54850 and InfiniiMax Series
• Up to 6 GHz bandwidth can track even the fastest signal speeds.
• A sample rate of 20 GSa/s on all four channels can measure high-speed differential buses correlated with other signals.
• The innovative InfiniiMax probing system supports even the most demanding mechanical access requirements without sacrificing performance.

20 GSa/s Sample Rate on All Channels at Once!

• The full real-time bandwidth of up to 6 GHz is supported on every channel by the 20 GSa/s sample rate.
• This industry-leading sample rate produces more accurate and repeatable measurements, avoiding measurement error and signal aliasing due to under sampling, as shown above.
• The combination of 6 GHz bandwidth and 20 GSa/s sample rate on all channels makes the 54850 series ideal for designs that include: PCI-Express, Serial ATA, Rapid IO, HyperTransport, InfiniBand, or Gigabit Ethernet.

InfiniiMax: The Worlds Best High-Speed Probing System

InfiniiMax offers you the highest performance
available for measuring differential and single-ended signals, with flexible connectivity solutions for today’s high-density ICs and circuit boards.
Variable spacing via the tab on the side of the differential browser allows the probe tips to be adjusted for different circuit geometries from
0.25-5.80 mm (10-230 mills).
Z-axis compliance allows both probe tips of the differential browser to spring, supporting various probing angles and target system characteristics.
Differential browser is the best choice for general-purpose trouble-shooting of differential or single-ended signals up to 6 GHz bandwidth.
Solder-in differential probe head provides 7 GHz bandwidth and can be attached to very small geometry circuits for measuring both single-ended and differential signals.
The differential socket probe head can be used to measure either differential or single-ended signals to 7 GHz bandwidth.
Extremely small single-ended, solder-in probe heads support 5.2 GHz measurements of even the
hardest-to-reach single-ended signals.
Single-ended browser is the best choice for general purpose probing of single-ended signals when small size of the probe head is the primary consideration. Bandwidths up to 5.5 GHz can be obtained in this configuration.
The 54006A 7.5 GHz resistive divider probe is available as a low-cost probing alternative for casual inspection of signals.
A flat frequency response over the entire probe bandwidth eliminates the distortion and frequency-dependent loading effects that are present in probes that have an in-band resonance.
Ergonomic sleeves make hand browsing comfortable even over long periods of time.

Controlled impedance transmission lines in every probe head deliver full performance versus the performance limitations produced by traditional wire accessories.
Probe interface software allows you to save the calibration information for up to 10 different probe heads per channel and will automatically retrieve calibration data for a probe amplifier as it is attached to the scope.
Supplied axial lead resistors, when trimmed to the appropriate length, allow user to trade off bandwidth and reach. Values and trimming templates are supplied for measurements from 2.8 GHz to 7 GHz.
The damped-wire accessory provides maximum connection reach and flexibility without introducing an in-band resonance for signals up to 1.2 GHz bandwidth.
