Power Requirements
Connections of the N4916B
The N4916B is controlled by the J-BERT
via
USB. The respective port is at the rear side of the
instrument.
The N4916B is a 4-tap De-emphasis signal converter
with optional clock multiplier which converts the
signal produced by the Pattern Generator (PG).
For De-emphasis, its
DATA IN
has to be connected to
the
DATA OUT
of the PG and the
CLK IN
has to be
connected to the
AUX CLK OUT
of the PG using the
matched cable pair with the part number N4915A-010.
For Clock Multiplier, its Clock Input has to be
connected to the Clock Out of the PG. Its Clock Output
has to be connected to the Clock In of ED.
The N4916B is also supported for
Aux Data Out
channel of the PG as well in the second
channel mode.
N4903B
Its Data Output has to be connected to the device
under test.
If the N4916B is used with other instruments like
ParBERT 81250 or N4903A, see the readme contained
in the
N4916B.x.x.x.x.zip
file located on the installation
media.
All data and clock input and output connectors
of the PG that are not used in your test setup
must be terminated with 50 Ohm.
The instrument can operate from any single-phase
AC power source supplying 100 – 240 V in the
The maximum power consumption is 80 VA.
The power supply automatically adapts to the
applied AC power (Auto Selection) and monitors
the AC power range.
The mains plug can only be inserted in a socket
outlet that provides protective earth contact. Any
interruption of the protective earth contact inside or
outside the instrument makes any operation of the
instrument dangerous. Intentional interruption is
prohibited.
frequency range from 50 – 60 Hz.
The maximum allowed voltage fluctuation is 10%.
Ventilation Requirements
Do not cover the ventilation holes.
Make sure that there is adequate clearance of 50 mm (2 in) at the rear and right side
of the instrument to ensure adequate air flow. If the air flow is restricted, the internal
operating temperature will be higher, reducing the instrument's reliability.
