Sync Function
In inter-symbol interference analysis mode, inter-symbol interference analysis can be
performed beginning with the symbol pattern specified by the symbol search function
(see page 2-20).
For example, this function allows the analysis to start from where the measured patterns
of pulse width A and pulse width B match if the data pattern sequence is offset between
pulse width A and pulse width B in the pulse width A
→
pulse width B measurement.
Measurement without using the Sync function
The data of pulse A and pulse B may not match.
Measurement using the Sync function
The pattern of pulse width A and pulse width B
can be matches starting with the “14T-4T-3T” pattern
“14T-4T-3T” pattern
When the function is set to pulse width or pulse width A
→
A-to-B time interval, inter-
symbol interference analysis is performed beginning with the specified symbol pattern.
Missed Sampling Fill Function
Continuous measurement is a must in inter-symbol interference analysis mode.
Therefore, dropouts in the measured values are filled (with asterisks) according to the
following conditions in the sampling of the dual measurement function. Measured data
and analysis results are displayed only if the following conditions are met.
Maximum number of dropout samples that can be filled: 256
Conditions for filling the samples: When the dropout sampling interval is 100 ns or more
If a dropout of the measured value occurs, the dropout can be verified on the list display
as shown below. This also prevents erroneous extraction due to the offset or dropout in
the data sequence.

measurement, the continuous measure condition that states “the time from the measurement
edge of CH B to the measurement edge of CH A is 13 ns or more” (see section 2.5) is
sometimes difficult to be met. In such case, the continuous measurement condition is
sometimes met by changing the polarity/slope to A
