Tektronix CR175A 17.5 Gb/s Clock Recovery Instrument

The Tektronix CR175A is a high-performance clock recovery instrument, designed to provide accurate and reliable clock recovery for high-speed digital communication systems. Capable of supporting data rates up to 17.5 Gb/s, the CR175A is essential for testing and validating advanced high-speed serial data standards.

Key Features:

• High Data Rate Support: Operates from 150 Mb/s to 17.5 Gb/s, making it ideal for a wide range of high-speed communication applications.
• Advanced Jitter Analysis: Offers comprehensive jitter measurement capabilities, including frequency-gated and duty cycle-dependent jitter analysis, helping isolate jitter sources and measure total jitter accurately.
• Variable Loop Bandwidth: Provides adjustable loop bandwidth from 100 kHz to 12 MHz, with an option to extend up to 24 MHz, allowing for precise control over the clock recovery process.
• High Sensitivity: Capable of recovering clocks from signals with amplitudes as low as 40 mV (single-ended) or 20 mV (differential), ensuring reliable performance even with low-amplitude signals.
• Built-in Equalization: Includes linear equalization to recover clocks under challenging conditions, such as closed-eye signals, making it suitable for environments with significant inter-symbol interference (ISI).

Technical Specifications:

• Input Data Rate Coverage: 150 Mb/s to 17.5 Gb/s
• Input Sensitivity: 100 mV (single-ended), 50 mV (differential)
• Loop Bandwidth: 100 kHz to 12 MHz (extendable to 24 MHz)
• Interfaces: Compatible with various Tektronix sampling modules and external clock recovery instruments
