Overview of the Infiniium DCA-X

The 86100D DCA-X can be viewed as four powerful instruments in one:

Scope Mode Jitter Mode

High-fidelity waveform characterization (Yellow: raw trace, Blue: de-embedded waveform)

Eye/Mask Mode

Precision jitter, amplitude, and frequency analysis capability

TDR/TDT Mode

Fast transmitter characterization using eye diagram analysis and automated mask margin measurements

Accurate time domain reflectometry/transmission and S-Parameter measurements

These modes are further complimented by the following features that provide additional insight and analysis capability:

– De-embedding, embedding, equalizer capability

– Phase Noise/Jitter Spectrum Analysis

– Phase Locked Loop (PLL) Analysis

– And more…

Precision Measurements, More Margin, and

More Insight

The 86100D DCA-X oscilloscope combines high analog bandwidth, low jitter, and low noise performance to accurately characterize optical and electrical designs from

50Mb/s to over 80 Gb/s. The mainframe provides the foundation for powerful insight and measurement capability, such as de-embedding of cables and fixtures, that improve margins and allow engineers to see the true performance of their designs.

Modular

The modular system means that the instrument can grow to meet your needs, when you need it. There’s no need to purchase capability that you don’t need now. The DCA-X supports a wide range of modules for testing optical and electrical designs. Select modules to get the specific bandwidth, filtering, and sensitivity you need. The DCA-X supports all modules in the DCA family and is 100% backwards compatible with the 86100C mainframe.

Software

The DCA-X provides powerful analysis capability that is enabled through licensed software options.

Examples include 86100D-200 for fast and accurate jitter analysis, and 86100D-SIM for de-embedding and/or embedding of fixtures and cables.


Specifications

General and Mainframe

Specifications describe warranted performance over thetemperature range of +10 °C to +40 °C (unless otherwise noted). The specifications are applicable for the temperature after the instrument is turned on for one (1) hour, and while self-calibration is valid. Many performance parameters are enhanced through frequent, simple user calibrations. Characteristics provide useful, non-warranted information about the functions and performance of the instrument. Characteristics are printed in italic typeface. Product specifications and descriptions in this document are subject to change without notice.

1. The freerun trigger mode internally generates an asynchronous trigger that allows viewing the sampled signal amplitude without an external trigger signal but provides no

timing information unless a precision timebase is used in Eye/Mask mode. Freerun is useful in troubleshooting external trigger problems.

2. The sampled input signal timing is recreated by using an externally supplied trigger signal that is synchronous with the sampled signal input.

3. The DC to 100 MHz mode is used to minimize the effect of high frequency signals or noise on a low frequency trigger signal.

4. Measured at 2.5 GHz with the triggering level adjusted for optimum trigger.

5. High Sensitivity Hysteresis Mode improves the high frequency trigger sensitivity but is not recommended when using noisy, low frequency signals that may result in false

triggers without normal hysteresis enabled.

6. Slew rate ≥ 2 V/ns

7 The Module Bay Trigger routes trigger signals from the module’s rear panel to the mainframe. 86100D-ETR is recommended when using a DCA module equipped with a

rear-panel trigger circuit. Examples include 54754A, 83496x, and 86108A/B modules. If operating these modules in an 86100D with Option STR, an external cable (such as

P/N 5062-6690) must be connected from the module’s front panel trigger/clock output to the 86100D’s trigger input.

Specifications precision time base (86108 configurations)

The 86108A/B can be triggered through clock recovery of the observed signal, through an external reference clock into the precision timebase section, or with the precision timebase operating on the clock signal recovered from the observed signal. The following specifications indicate the 86100 system timebase specifications achieved when using the 86108A/B plug-in module. (The 86100 mainframe and the 86108A/B module can also be triggered with a signal into the mainframe. In this configuration, the basic mainframe specifications are achieved.)

Performance characteristics for 86100D Option 202

Test conditions

– Mainframe and module have been turned on for at least one hour and have been calibrated

– TDR calibration has been performed using N1024B

– Internal measurements use 54754A as stimulus and either

54754A or 86112A as receiver

– External measurements use 54754A and Picosecond Pulse

Labs Accelerator as stimulus and 86118A as receiver

– All characteristics apply to single-ended and differential

– Derived from measurements of wide range of devices compared to vector network analyzer measurements

– Averages of 256 except as noted in dynamic range

Phase uncertainty

– Longer equipment warm-up times and careful calibration provide the best phase performance – perform module and TDR calibrations again if temperatures change

– Phase uncertainty is the sum of the uncertainty from the desired graph plus the two additional components which are estimated below

– Sampling points - S-parameters are determined from the sampling points record length 1 over the time interval, which is time per division multiplied by ten divisions. The reference plane is determined to nearest sampling point with uncertainty given by this equation:

Uncertainty in degrees

=

time per division (sec) * 10 divisions * f (Hz) *360

(sampling points) 4096 * 2

Simplified version = time per division (sec) * f(Hz) / 2.28

– Time base drift with temperature - the amount of drift can be observed by placing the calibration short at the reference plane and reading the amount of time difference in picoseconds. The phase uncertainty is given by this equation:

Uncertainty in degrees (temp drift) = time diff (sec) •frequency (Hz) * 360

1. Record length is user-defined from 16 to 16384 However, the minimum record length used for S-parameters is 4096, independent of user settings.

–1.68 dB.

2. Verified with PRBS7 pattern, electrical inputs > 150 mVp-p and optical inputs > 3 dB above specification for minimum input level to acquire lock.

Output jitter verification results of the 83496B can be affected by jitter on the input test signal. The 83496B will track jitter frequencies inside the loop bandwidth, and the jitter will appear on the recovered clock output. Vertical noise (such as laser RIN) on the input signal will be converted to jitter by the limit amplifier stage on the input of the clock recovery. These effects can be reduced by lowering the Loop bandwidth setting.

3. At rates below 1 Gb/s, loop bandwidth is fixed at 30 KHz when Option 300 is not installed.

4. Without Option 200 loop bandwidth is adjustable from 15 KHz to 6 MHz. Available loop bandwidth settings also depend on the data rate of the input signal. For transition density from 0.25 to 1, the Loop Bandwidth vs Rate chart shows available loop bandwidth settings. Higher loop bandwidths can be achieved when average data transition density is maintained at or above 50%.

Option 500 productivity package

Option 500 enables Rapid Eye acquisition. Rapid Eye achieves two significant benefits. First, unlike conventional sampling and data display, when an eye mask test is performed, every acquired sample will be compared to the mask, as the central eye is composed of all acquired samples. Effective throughput is improved at least 60%.

Second, incomplete eye diagram displays that can occur when triggering at subrates are eliminated.

Measurements

Easier calibrations

Calibrating your instrument has been simplified by placing all the performance level indicators and calibration procedures in a single high-level location. This provides greater confidence in the measurements made and saves time in maintaining equipment.

Stimulus response testing using the

Keysight Technologies, Inc. N490X BERTs

Error performance analysis represents an essential part of digital transmission test. The Keysight 86100D and N490X

BERT have similar user interfaces and together create a powerful test solution. If stimulus only is needed, the

81133A and 81134A pattern generators work seamlessly with the 86100D.

Transitioning from the Keysight 83480A and

86100A/B/C to the 86100D

While the 86100D has powerful new functionality that its predecessors don’t have, it has been designed to maintain compatibility with the Keysight 86100A, 86100B, 86100C and Keysight 83480A digital communications analyzers and Keysight 54750A wide-bandwidth oscilloscope. All modules used in the Keysight 86100A/B/C, 83480A and

54750A can also be used in the 86100D. Since the 86100D includes the classic DCA interface, the remote programming command set for the 86100D designed for the 86100A/B/C will work directly. Some code modifications are required when transitioning from the 83480A and 54750A, but the command set is designed to minimize the level of effort required.

IVI-COM capability

Interchangeable Virtual Instruments (IVI) is a group of new instrument device software specifications created by the IVI Foundation to simplify interchangeability, increase application performance, and reduce the cost of test program development and maintenance through design code reuse. The 86100D IVI-COM drivers are available for download from the Keysight website.

This module is not compatible with the 86100A and 86100B DCA mainframes. If you want to upgrade older DCAs, contact Keysight

Technologies to discuss current trade-in deals.

All optical modules have FC/PC connectors installed on each optical port.

Other connector adapters available as options are: Diamond HMS-10, DIN,

ST and SC.

1. Fixed node customer installed or transportable customer installed (86100DU or 86100DT).

Not available as a factory-installed license.

2. This module is not compatible with the 86100A and 86100B DCA mainframes. If you want to upgrade older DCAs, contact Keysight Technologies to discuss current trade-in deals

3. System impulse response correction calibration provides a unique calibration file for the optical channel(s). The FlexDCA user interface uses this calibration file to create ideal reference receiver responses for more accurate and consistent transceiver compliance testing. IRC also allows reference receivers to be defined at any data rate within +/- 50% of the hardware response. This allows optical receivers to significantly extend their operating range.

4. A 15 Gb/s filter is provided with Option 281 and 282 that closely approximates the response required for 16X Fibre Channel compliance testing. Contact Keysight for a special option that verifies compliance of the 86105D-281 and 86115D-282 to the 16X Fibre Channel reference receiver specification.
