Tektronix BA1500
The Tektronix BA1500 is a sophisticated Bit Error Rate Tester (BERT) designed to handle high-speed digital communication systems. Supporting data rates up to 1.5 Gb/s, it is part of the BitAlyzer series known for its high performance in signal generation and error detection. This tool is crucial for engineers involved in verifying, characterizing, and debugging sophisticated electronic and satellite communication systems.
Key Features:
- High-Speed Data Rates: Capable of pattern generation and error detection at speeds up to 1.5 Gb/s.
- Integrated Eye Diagram Analysis: Provides BER-correlated eye diagram analysis with pass/fail masks, enhancing visual representation of signal integrity.
- Comprehensive Error Analysis: Offers advanced error analysis capabilities, including Error Mapping analysis (MAP) and Error Correction Coding emulation (ECC).
- Jitter Measurements: Performs detailed jitter analysis, including Random Jitter (RJ), Deterministic Jitter (DJ), and Total Jitter (TJ).
- BER Contour Analysis: Measures and views the eye diagram opening as a function of BER, offering quick insight into signal integrity.
Technical Specifications:
- Data Rate: Up to 1.5 Gb/s
- Pattern Generation: Supports various pseudo-random binary sequence (PRBS) patterns for thorough testing.
- Eye Diagram: Integrated with BER-contoured masks for precise signal integrity analysis.
- Jitter Analysis: Supports ANSI jitter measurements and BER contour with automatic mask creation.
- Connectivity: Interfaces for easy integration into various testing setups.
