Horizontal (Timebase) Specifications
Item Description
Scale Factor Full scale is ten divisions.
Minimum 100 fs/div
Maximum 1 s/div (250 ns/div with pattern lock)
Delay Time offset relative to the front panel trigger input on the instrument mainframe.
Minimum 24 ns
40.1 ns default, 24 ns minimum (with Pattern Lock)
Maximum 1000 screen diameters or 10s, whichever is smaller
1000 screen diameters or 2.5401 μs, whichever is smaller (with Pattern Lock)
Time Interval Accuracy
Dual marker measurement performed at a temperature within ±5° C of horizontal calibration temperature.
1 ps + 1.0% of Δ time interval or 8 ps, whichever is smaller. The maximum delay settings is = 100 ns and delta time does not span across (28 + N x 4) ns ±100 ps delay setting, where N = 0, 1, 2, … 18. If delta time measurement span exceeds this criteria, time interval accuracy is 8 ps + 0.1% of Δ time reading.
Jitter Mode Operation Time interval accuracy – jitter mode operation 1 ps. Characteristic. Test configuration: PRBS of length 27–1 bits, Data and Clock 10 Gb/s.
Time Interval Resolution. The time interval resolution is the smallest time you can characterize between two points. ≤ (screen diameter)/(record length) or 62.5 fs, whichever is larger
Display Units Bits or Time
Record length 16 to 65,536 samples. Increments of 1
