Description
The 83496B Clock Recovery Module with Phase Noise Analysis provides increased eye-mask and jitter measurement accuracy with breakthrough performance in clock recovery circuitry. It provides ideal performance for waveform analysis with the 86100C Digital Communications Analyzer and can derive a clock from signals with rates as low as 50 Mb/s-14.2 GB/s*, and any rate in between. At under 300 femtoseconds rms, the residual jitter of the output clock is virtually negligible, allowing accurate measurements of very low levels of signal jitter. Jitter spectrum and phase noise analysis on clock and data signals is available through a downloadable external application
