Protocol and Serial Pattern Triggering

To debug serial architectures, use the
serial pattern triggering for NRZ serial
data stream with built-in clock recovery
and correlate events across physical and
link layer. This feature comes standard
on the DSA70000 series and is available
on DPO70000 models as Opt. PTH. The
instrument can recover the clock signal,
identify transitions and allow you to set
the desired encoded words for the serial
pattern trigger to capture. Opt. PTH
and the DSA70000 Series cover serial
standards up to 3.125 Gb/s.

Pattern Lock Triggering adds a new
dimension to NRZ serial pattern triggering
by enabling the oscilloscope to take
synchronized acquisitions of a long serial
test pattern with outstanding time base
accuracy. Pattern lock triggering can be
used to remove random jitter from long
serial data patterns. Effects of specific
bit transitions can be investigated and
averaging can be used with mask testing.
This feature supports up to 6.25 Gb/s
NRZ serial data stream and is standard

iView feature is completely automated.

Unmatched Versatility

Get the Most of Your Oscilloscope
by Fully Controlling its Waveform
Acquisition and Display Parameters

You have the choice of three horizontal
time base modes of operations. If you
are simply doing signal exploration and
want to interact with a lively signal, you
will use the Automatic or interactive
default mode that provides you with the
liveliest display update rate. If you want
a precise measurement and the highest
real-time sample rate that will give you
the most measurement accuracy, then
the Constant Sample Rate mode is for
you. It will maintain the highest sample
rate and provide the best real-time
resolution. The last mode is called the
Manual mode because it ensures direct
and independent control of the sample
rate and record length.
