DescriptionCharacteristics
Phase correction capabilities and
conditions
A phase reference signal may be applied to a mainframe equipped with the 82A04
Phase Reference module to provide additional phase information for signals being
acquired in Triggered Phase Corrected modes and primary phase information for
signals being acquired in Free Run Phase Corrected modes. For Phase Corrected
Triggered modes, the phase correction functionality overlays the functionality of the
basic trigger operation, although restrictions may be imposed.
Number of phase reference module
inputs
One per 82A04 module. Up to three 82A04 modules may be inserted in the small
compartments of the mainframe and characterized to operate with one or more
vertical sampling module(s); only one phase correction module at a time can be used.

Gated Trigger Input -- Enable-to-Acquire Delay
(Option GT equipped mainframes)
3 trigger cycles, where each cycle is defined as (holdoff time + trigger latency). For example:
With holdoff set to its minimum 5 s setting, and a 2.500 GHz clock signal applied to the
External Direct Trigger input (a period of 400 ps), the Enable-to-Acquire delay is approximated
as 3 x (5 s + 0.0004 s) = 15.0012 s.
The Enable-to-Acquire delay is the amount of time after the Gated
Trigger has been enabled (the level goes from TTL LOW to HIGH) when the first valid sample is
retained by the system as the beginning of the waveform record length. When the Gated Trigger
is enabled and triggers begin to occur, the system will reject the first three samples to avoid
system recovery conditions. Once the first three points have been
discarded, then the next valid trigger cycle will be the first point of the
record section.
Gated Trigger Input -- Maximum
Disable Time
(Option GT equipped mainframes)
The system checks the status of the gated Trigger approximately once per holdoff and rearm
cycle. If the Gated Trigger is disabled immediately after this system check, it will allow nominally
a maximum time of (holdoff + trigger period) to elapsed before the checking for the status of the
Gated Trigger input, recognizing the disable condition, and halting any further sampling of the
signal.

Vertical operating range defines the maximum range over which the offset plus peak input signal can operate. The offset
may be limited as a function of vertical sensitivity and dynamic range, such that no signal exceeding the maximum
operating range can be displayed.

Vertical nondestruct range defines the maximum range over which offset plus peak input signal can operate without
irreversible damage to the instrument. Operation to instrument specification is not guarantied outside of the vertical
operating range.

The published IEEE P802.3ba 100GbE D3.2 standard defines the Optical Reference Receiver
specifications for 100GBase--LR4 and --ER4 variants as follows (per section 88.8.8 in P802.3ba
D3.2, June 2010): a standard 4th--order Bessel--Thompson Scalar Frequency Response with a
reference frequency of 0.75x(data rate), for example 0.75*25.78125 GHz=19.337 GHz.
Tolerances are as specified for STM--64 in ITU--T G.691, scaled to 25.78125 GHz in frequency.
The following table lists the nominal curve for margin testing and tolerances at various
frequencies, based on ±0.85 dBf DC to 0.75x(nominal data rate) and expanding to ±4.0 dB at
1.5x(nominal data rate) with logarithmic interpolation for frequency values in between.

chosen to match the first draft proposal D1.0 of IEEE802.3bg released in June 2010 (Sect.

= 30.94 GHz. Tolerances are as specified for STM--64 in ITU--T G.691. The following table lists

All pattern lengths between minimum and maximum values are
supported.
The PatternSync-module overall division ratio will vary based on the
user requested or autoset pattern length and the user requested or
autoset input clock frequency.
The programmable counter in the PatternSync module is settable from
23
30 to 2
so for pattern lengths shorter than 30, the requested value is
multiplied by the smallest integer necessary to raise the counter value
over 30.
23
(8,388,608)
The overall division ratio is given by the following product::
division ratio = prescaler x integer multiple x programmable
counter
For example, an 8.5 GHz input clock and requested counter value of
127 will give an overall division ratio of 16 * 1 * 127 = 2032. In this case,
the pattern length is longer than 30 so the integer multiple is 1. A
2.5 GHz input clock and requested counter value of 25 will give an
overall division ratio of 4 * 2 * 25 = 200.
