The BERTScope CR is a fully flexible clock recovery instrument designed to make compliance testing of today's communication designs easy and accurate. With jitter being such a complex and contentious parameter, each clock recovery instrument is intended to make compliance testing simple, repeatable, and accurate. The BERTScope CR smoothly integrates with the BERTScope family, or can be used stand-alone to bring compliance to your existing investments in BER and sampling scope equipment.

Features:

• Instrumentation quality clock recovery
• 150 Mb/s–12.5 Gb/s continuous data rate coverage
• Accurate variable loop bandwidth from 100 kHz to 12 MHz
• Auto lock capability with LED display
• Programmable peaking adjustment with first and second order rolloff capability
• Self-measured and displayed PLL frequency response
• USB control connection to BERTScope or stand alone operation via front panel
• Single-ended or differential 50 O inputs/outputs
• DC coupled data through path data
• Full and divided clock outputs with selectable divide ratios
• Measurement of clock phase deviation as a function of frequency and time
• Data measurement capability
• Edge Density Measurement —determine the mark density of the signal under test
• Ideal for spread spectrum clock (SSC) applications with large frequency excursions
