When you make a 2-port shunt through measurement using a commercial vector network analyzer the measurement includes an undesirable ground loop. Left uncorrected, the ground loop introduces significant errors. This paper shows how to solve this problem.

We analyze the computational procedure specified for Channel Operation Margin (COM) and compare it to traditional statistical eye/BER analysis. There are a number of differences between the two approaches, ranging from how they perform channel characterization, to how they consider Tx and Rx noise and apply termination, to the differences between numerical procedures employed to convert given jitter and crosstalk responses into the vertical distribution characterizing eye diagrams and BER.
Teledyne LeCroy introduced its WaveRunner 9000 Series mixed-signal oscilloscopes. The WaveRunner 9000 Series offers the deepest toolbox and the most complete collection of serial data debug and validation solutions, making it well suited for embedded system, automotive, and EMC/EMI test applications.

In this seminar, we’ll use the Signal to noise and dispersion ratio measurement as a lab to understand not only SNDR, but the important quantities that go into it and many other measurements: pulse response and how it relates to features of interconnects like transfer functions and impulse response as well as ISI (inter-symbol interference); waveform fitting, fit deviations, and signal distortion; and measurement of the steady state voltage and pulse peak. In the process, we’ll see exactly how SNDR compares electrical signal strength to the combination of random noise and harmonic distortion. It's not too late to register, join us!
