When looking at protocol information on a bus, an oscilloscope may not be the first instrument to come to mind�until now. As most engineers know, digital oscilloscopes are an indispensable ...
Serial data streams continue to increase in speed while error specifications tighten, which makes testing for jitter tolerance and bit-error rate (BER) ever more ...
Serial transmission of data representing video and audio signals has become standard practice across the broadcast industry. There are many advantages, including high data rate capability, ...
Compliance requirements and measurements are an area of particular concern for serial system designers. Not long ago, first-generation serial protocols like Serial ATA and PCI Express supplanted their ...
Even 1 MB is a short memory if your signal�s too long to fit. The solutions to real application problems require more than basic oscilloscope functionality. What�s needed is the right combination ...
Almost all high-speed SERDES designs require reference clocks that you must properly select to ensure that your links meet jitter requirements of high-speed serial-data communication standards.
As the CPU speed reaches 3GHz and beyond, the I/O performance of a PC has increasingly become the bottleneck of the overall system performance. Traditionally, the I/O- subsystems are connected to the ...
