Amplitude
Amplitude is the low-to-high magnitude of the pulse. The
Amplitude
setting can be
set from 2.5 V to 6 V, adjustable in 100 mV coarse increments or in 10 mV fine
increments. Changing the amplitude will change the high level only. Low level is
always set at 0 V. Offset is not affected.
Limit
To protect the device under test, amplitude limits can be set for both the
Positive
Output
and
Negative Output
. Output amplitude can be limited to a user defined
value from 2.5 V to 6 V, Adjustable in 100 mV coarse increments or in 10 mV fine
increments.
Deskew
Set the deskew between
Positive Output
and
Negative Output
to compensate for
different cable delays. Set the
Deskew
between output in the range of –1.00 ns to
1.00 ns. Adjustable in a 20 ps coarse increment or in 1 ps fine increment.
Pulse Performance
The transition response can be modified by the
Pulse Performance
selector:
• Fast
- provides faster transient times (55 ps or less) with near 40% overshot.
• Smooth
- provides slower transient times (60 ps or less) and smoother edges
less then 20%.
Pos Out vs. Neg Out
Positive Output
and
Negative Output
operate as entirely separate outputs. Their
Amplitude
and
Limit
variables can be controlled separately.
• Separate
-
Positive Output
and
Negative Output
operate as entirely separate
outputs. Their
Amplitude
and
Limit
variables can be controlled separately.
• Paired
-
Positive Output
and
Negative Output
operate together. Their
Amplitude
and
Limit
variables are controlled simultaneously.
