Determining the Extent of
Signal Degradation with
Acquisition Probes
Before you start designing the setup for a particular acquisition probing solution that you plan to use
with U4421A module, you should simulate the signal integrity with that probing solution. This helps
you assess the extent of signal degradation in a specific target system on attaching the probes to
signals in that target system.
Some extent of signal degradation is always present. To determine if this signal degradation is
significant in a specific target system, you should run a simulation with the probe loads for the
probing method(s) to be used.
The amount of signal degradation that a target system can tolerate can vary widely depending on
signal rise times, design margins and system noise.
The following table provides some guidelines for the acquisition probing method used for U4421A
module vs. bit rate assuming a "typical" target system (Note that this includes the effect of two
probes per signal):
\\
Probe
Attachment
Maximum Bit Rate
E5405A Soft Touch
Connectorless
>1.5 Gbps
E5381A Flying Leads
Coaxial Tip Resistors (82 Ohms)
>1.5 Gbps
E5381A Flying Leads
3-Pin Headers
1.0 Gbps
E5381A Flying Leads
Socket Adapters
1.0 Gbps
E5381A Flying Leads
Damped Wires (160 Ohms)
0.8 Gbps
NOTE
When the E5381A or E5405A probe is used with the U4421A module, each
signal is probed twice. Therefore, when simulating the electrical impact of these
probes, you must attach two probe loads to each signal.
