Skew Calibration
The Skew Calibration compensates for the propagation delay times of output
signals from each channel which are caused by differences in the attributes and the
length of the cables connected to the
DTG5000 Series
and its circuitry. This feature
then provides proper timing at the output cable ends.
Without requiring any external measuring equipments, this feature measures and
calibrates the timing by returning the
DTG5000 Series
output signals to SKEW CAL
IN. The calibration works at the level of ECL into 50
Ω
to
–
2 V.
In addition, it can adjust the timing of the output signals from two or more
DTG5000
Series
by calibration in the Master-Slave configuration.
The Skew Calibration does not cover the Clock Output.
Calibration range
There is no restriction for the cables to be the same length. The range for which the
calibration works is up to approximately 1.5 ns in the circuitry in a DTG5000
Series, or 500 ps (10 cm) in dispersion of cable length. This feature regards more
dispersion as an error.
When to Perform
The
DTG5000 Series
performs calibration for the cables connected to its internal
circuitry and to the output connectors, the cables connected to the CLK and JUMP
used for controlling the slave machines (in Master-Slave operation), all the signal
paths, and the temperature conditions during operation and so on. Thus, you should
perform Skew Calibration in the following cases:
You changed a cable, including a cable used for connection with the master or
a slave machine in Master-Slave operation.
You changed an output module slot position.
The system configuration changed (addition or removal of output module;
Master-Slave operation).
The temperature at which you use the analyzer changed.
NOTE.
For a DTGM30, DTGM31, and DTGM32 output module of differential
output (Complementary), the amount of calibration for the inverted channels is the
same as the normal channels. Thus, the delay time caused by the cables of the
normal channels is reflected on the amount of calibration for the inverted channels.
