Superior Performance with Extraordinary Versatility

For developing today’s high-speed serial devices, the DSA8200 Digital Serial Analyzer sampling oscilloscope is the most versatile tool for communication, computer and consumer electronics gigabit transmitter and signal path characterization, and compliance verification. With exceptional bandwidth, signal fidelity, and the most extensible modular architecture, the DSA8200 provides the highest performance TDR and interconnect analysis, most accurate analysis of signal impairments, and BER calculations for current and emerging serial data technology.

The DSA8200 provides unmatched measurement system fidelity with ultra-low jitter floor that ensures the most accurate acquisition of high-speed signals. You get advanced analysis benefits from the 200 fs acquisition jitter with the Phase Reference module. And in another step forward for a sampling oscilloscope, with the help of the Phase Reference module the DSA8200 can acquire and measure SSC (Spread Spectrum Clocking) signals.

The multiprocessor architecture, with dedicated per-slot digital signal processors (DSPs), provides fast waveform acquisition rates, reducing the test times necessary for reliable characterization and compliance verification.

The DSA8200’s versatile modular architecture supports a large and growing family of plug-ins enabling you to configure your measurement system with a wide variety of electrical, optical, and accessory modules that best suit your application now and in the future. With 6 module slots, the DSA8200 can simultaneously accommodate a Clock Recovery module, a precision Phase Reference module, and multiple acquisition modules, electrical or optical, so you can match system performance to your evolving needs.

Featuring industry-leading signal fidelity, the family of electrical modules includes bandwidth performance from 12 GHz to 70+ GHz. Two true-differential Time Domain Reflectometer (TDR) modules, with remote samplers, offer up to 50 GHz bandwidth and 15 ps reflected rise time and 12 ps incident rise time. The family of low-noise variable-bandwidth electrical modules provides the industry's best noise performance with remote samplers, featuring 450 μV_RMS noise at 60 GHz, and 300 μV_RMS at 30 GHz.

DSA8200 optical modules provide complete optical test solutions with superior system fidelity from 125 Mb/s to 43 Gb/s and beyond. The modules cover a range of wavelengths for both single- and multi-mode fibres. Each module can be optionally configured with a number of selectable optical reference receiver (ORR) filters and/or a full bandwidth path. The 80C07B, 80C08C, and 80C11 can be configured with a number of available flexible integrated clock recovery options. The 80C12 and 80C14 Multirate module clock recovery support is achieved with an electrical output for use with the 80A05 module, or CR175A/CR125A instruments.

The DSA8200’s popular FrameScan™ acquisition mode can be used with patterns from DUTs, BERTs, and other sources, to isolate pattern-dependent effects in transmitters or show the bit sequence preceding a mask violation. FrameScan automatically sequences the time base so that each bit of the data stream is acquired in time order. When used in combination with mask-testing conditional acquisition features of the DSA8200, such as stop after mask hits, FrameScan can automatically identify at which bit a pattern-dependent failure occurred.

In addition, specialized modules supporting features such as single-ended and differential electrical clock recovery, electrostatic protection for the TDR, and connectivity to the popular TekConnect probing system brings you the performance of Tektronix state-of-the-art probes for high-impedance and differential probing. Low-impedance probes for 50 Ω probing and for TDR probing are also available.

Jitter, Noise, BER, and Serial Data Link Analysis

High-speed serial data link measurements and analysis are supported with three software solutions: 80SJARB, 80SJNB Essentials, and 80SJNB Advanced.

80SJARB is a basic jitter measurement tool capable of measuring jitter on any waveform – random or repetitive. The simplicity of acquisition limits the amount of analysis possible so only the simplest decomposition can be used; repeatability is pattern dependent.

80SJNB Essentials offers complete analysis of jitter, noise, and BER, with decomposition of components for clear understanding of a signal’s problems and margins. The acquisition methodology requires a repetitive pattern. Both accuracy and repeatability are improved relative to 80SJARB since the tool has access to the complete signal pattern.

80SJNB Advanced adds features to 80SJNB Essentials for Serial Data Link Analysis – de-embedding of fixture, channel emulation, FFE/DFE equalization, pre-emphasis/de-emphasis.

TDR (Time Domain Reflectometry)

The DSA8200 is the industry’s highest performance fully integrated Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) measurement system. Offering true-differential TDR measurements up to 50 GHz bandwidth with 15 ps reflected rise time and 12 ps incident rise time, you are able to keep pace with today’s most demanding Serial Data Network Analysis (SDNA) requirements.

The 80E10 and 80E08 TDR modules feature a fully integrated independent dual-channel 2-meter remote sampler system to minimize fixturing and assure optimal system fidelity. Independent sampler deskew ensures fast and easy fixture and probe de-embedding. The user can characterize differential crosstalk by using TDR steps from a differential module to drive one line pair while monitoring a second line pair with a second differential module.

Small form factor remote sampler enables placement near DUT assuring optimal signal fidelity.

The DSA8200 is the industry’s most versatile TDR measurement system, accommodating up to 4 dual-channel true-differential TDR modules for fast, accurate multilane impedance and S-parameter characterization.

The P80318 True-differential TDR probe and P8018 Single-ended Passive Handheld TDR probe provide high-performance probing solutions for circuit board impedance and electrical signal characterization. The P80318, an 18 GHz 100 Ω input impedance differential TDR hand probe, enables high-fidelity impedance measurements of differential transmission lines. The adjustable probe pitch enables a wide variety of differential line spacing and impedances. The P8018 is a 20 GHz Single-ended Passive Handheld TDR probe. Both the P80318 and P8018 can be used as stand-alone probes but are especially designed to work with the 80A02 for the control of EOS/ESD protection.

Gigabit Signal Path Characterization and Analysis – Serial Data Network Analysis (SDNA)

As clock speeds and rise times of digital circuits increase, interconnect signal integrity dramatically affects digital system performance. Accurate and efficient Serial Data Network Analysis (SDNA) of the signal path and interconnects in time and frequency domains is critical to predict signal losses, jitter, crosstalk, terminations and ringing, digital bit errors, and eye diagram degradation, ensuring reliable system operation.

Tektronix offers several true-differential TDR modules, which in combination with IConnect^® software, allow S-parameters measurements with up to –70 dB of dynamic range. This performance assures accurate repeatable measurement in serial data analysis, digital design, signal integrity, and electrical compliance testing applications.

The table below summarizes the S-parameter measurement bandwidth performance when IConnect and the true-differential TDR modules are used in combination.

TDR Module	S-parameter Measurement Bandwidth Performance
80E10	50 GHz
80E08	30 GHz
80E04	20 GHz

With the long record length acquisitions, IConnect^® provides great flexibility for obtaining the desired frequency range and frequency step when performing S-parameter measurements. Up to 1,000,000 points can be acquired*².

When you employ IConnect^® Signal Integrity TDR and S-parameter software with the DSA8200 you have an efficient, easy-to-use, and cost-effective solution for measurement-based performance evaluation of multi-gigabit interconnect links and devices, including signal integrity analysis, impedance, S-parameter, and eye-diagram tests, and fault isolation. IConnect can help you complete interconnect analysis tasks in minutes instead of days, resulting in faster system design time and lower design costs. IConnect also enables impedance, S-parameters, and eye-diagram compliance testing as required by many serial data standards, as well as full channel analysis, Touchstone (SnP) file output, and SPICE modeling for gigabit interconnects.

DSA8200 Electrical Modules

TDR Modules: 80E10, 80E08, and 80E04

The 80E10, 80E08, and 80E04 are dual-channel Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) sampling modules, providing typical 12 ps incident and 15 ps reflected TDR step rise time. Each channel of these modules is capable of generating a fast step for use in TDR mode and the acquisition portion of the sampling module monitors the incident step and any reflected energy. The polarity of each channel’s step can be selected independently. This allows for true-differential or common-mode TDR or S-parameters testing of two coupled lines, in addition to the independent testing of isolated lines. The independent step generation for each channel allows true-differential measurements, which ensures measurement accuracy of nonlinear differential devices.

80E10 and 80E08 feature a small form factor, fully integrated independent 2-meter remote sampler system, enabling the location of the sampler and TDR step generator near the DUT for the best system fidelity. The modules characterize crosstalk by using TDR steps to drive one line (or line pair for differential crosstalk) while monitoring a second line (or line pair) with the other channel (or another module for differential crosstalk). The "rise time filter" function on the DSA8200 mainframe can be used with TDR or crosstalk measurements to characterize expected system performance with slower edge speeds. An optional 2-meter extender cable for the 80E04 is available, which enables placement of the module near the DUT for the best system fidelity.

All modules have independent incident step and receiver deskew to remove the effect of fixtures and probes, enabling faster and easier deskew. The 80E10 Sampling module provides an acquisition rise time of 7 ps, with up to 50 GHz user-selectable equivalent bandwidth (with 50 GHz, 40 GHz, and 30 GHz settings). 80E08 sampling bandwidth is 30 GHz (user-selectable with 30 GHz and 20 GHz settings) and 80E04 sampling bandwidth is 20 GHz. The 20 GHz P8018 single-ended and the 18 GHz P80318 differential variable pitch TDR handheld probes provide excellent performance, ensuring easy and accurate backplane and package measurements.

Electrical Modules: 80E09, 80E07, 80E06, 80E03, and 80E01

The 80E09 and 80E07 are dual-channel modules with remote samplers, capable of noise as low as 450 μV_RMS at 60 GHz bandwidth and 300 μV_RMS noise at 30 GHz bandwidth. Each small form factor remote sampler is attached to a 2-meter cable to minimize the effects of cables, probes, and fixtures to ensure the best system fidelity. User-selectable bandwidth settings (60/40/30 on 80E09 and 30/20 on 80E07) offer optimal noise/bandwidth trade-off.

80E06 and 80E01 are single-channel 70+ and 50 GHz bandwidth sampling modules respectively. 80E06 provides the widest bandwidth and fastest rise time with world-class system fidelity. Both 80E06 and 80E01 provide a superior maximum operating range of ±1.6 V. Both modules can be used with the optional 2-meter extender cable, ensuring superior system fidelity and measurement flexibility.

The 80E03 is a dual-channel 20 GHz sampling module. This module provides an acquisition rise time of 17.5 ps or less. An optional 2-meter extender cable is available.

When used with Tektronix 80SJNB Jitter, Noise, and BER Analysis software, these modules enable separation of both jitter and noise into their constituent components, for insight into the underlying causes of eye closure and obtain highly accurate calculation of BER and 3-D eye contour. When used with the 82A04 Phase Reference module, time-base accuracy can be improved down to 200 fs_RMS jitter which, together with the 300 μV_RMS noise floor and 14 bits of resolution, ensures the highest signal fidelity for your measurements.

DSA8200 Accessory Modules

82A04 Phase Reference Module

The 82A04 Phase Reference module enhances the DSA8200 sampling oscilloscope from the industry's standard time-base jitter performance of 800 fs_RMS, to the extremely low time-base jitter of <200 fs_RMS. Typical application for the Phase Reference module is the acquisition and analysis of very high-speed optical and electrical signals in communication devices and systems. The 82A04 supports both the Triggered mode of operation, which is similar to usual acquisition, and the untriggered Free Run mode where all timing information comes from the customer-supplied clock alone (no trigger signal necessary). When the external clock is not available the module can accept the clock signal from the clock recovery output of the 80Cxx modules, as well as from the 80A05 module or CR125A, CR175A, or CR286A instruments. Additionally 82A04 supports SSC (Spread Spectrum Clocking) operation.

80A05 Electrical Clock Recovery Module

The 80A05 Electrical Clock Recovery module enables clock recovery for electrical signals, as well as internal triggering on the recovered clock. The module recovers clocks from serial data streams for all of the most common electrical standards in the 50 Mb/s to 4.25 Gb/s, around 5 to 6 Gb/s, and from 9.953 Gb/s to 12.5 Gb/s ranges. The module accepts either single-ended or differential signals as its input, providing clock recovery for both. The signal(s) is/are then passed on to the output connectors (at about 50% of the input level) and can be connected to sampling module(s) for differential or single-ended sampling. Option 10G is required for support of standard rates from 9.953 Gb/s to 12.6 Gb/s. Clock recovery for the 80C12 Optical Sampling module is provided through the 80A05 module or CR125A, CR175A, or CR286A instruments.

80A06 PatternSync Module

The 80A06 PatternSync Trigger module, when used in combination with 80SJNB software, enables characterizing jitter, noise, and BER performance of high-speed serial designs from 1 Gb/s to 60 Gb/s data rates. It extends the capability of the DSA8200 sampling oscilloscope by creating a pattern trigger from any data-related clock – a recovered clock, user-supplied clock, sub-clock, or super-clock. The PatternSync Trigger module is programmable to pattern lengths of up to 2²³ bits and accepts a user-supplied clock signal from 150 MHz to 12.5 GHz. The 80A06 module is required with the DSA8200 when using 80SJNB Advanced Jitter, Noise, and BER Analysis software package. This module can be used in combination with the 82A04 Phase Reference module for the best time-base accuracy or for acquisition of signals under SSC (Spread Spectrum Clocking).

CR125A, CR175A, and CR286A Clock Recovery Instruments

CR125A, CR175A and CR286A Clock Recovery instruments recover clocks from serial data streams for all of the most common electrical standards in the continuous 150 Mb/s to 12.5 Gb/s, 150 Mb/s to 17.5 Gb/s, or 150 Mb/s to 28.6 Gb/s range respectively. Auto-locking capability is selectable from the user interface or programmatic interface, so the design and test engineers can search and lock onto signals of undefined or unknown data rate. The module accepts either single-ended or differential signals as its input, providing clock recovery for both. The signal(s) is/are then passed on to the output connectors and can be connected to sampling module(s) for differential or single-ended sampling. Tektronix clock recovery instruments offer complete configurability and state-of-the-art specifications and are the preferred solution for most serial data standards due to excellent stability, superior jitter and slew rate tolerance for recovering clocks from stressed or degraded signals, and unequaled PLL bandwidth and roll-off shape control for either Golden PLL compliance testing or custom PLL response. The clock recovery instruments also lock on spread-spectrum signals. The CR125A, CR175A, or CR286A can also serve as the Clock Recovery instrument for the 80C10B*¹⁴, 80C12, 80C14, or 80C25GBE. For more information on Tektronix Clock Recovery instruments see the BERTScope^® CR Series data sheet at www.tektronix.com.

*¹⁴ Up to data rates of 28.6 Gb/s.

P80318 Differential Handheld TDR Probe

The P80318 is an 18 GHz 100 Ω input impedance differential TDR hand probe. This probe enables high-fidelity impedance measurements of differential transmission lines. The adjustable probe pitch from 0.5 mm to 4.2 mm enables a wide variety of differential line spacing and impedances. The P80318 probe also includes two precision SMA cables with parallel control lines that provides the 80A02 module the control for EOS/ESD protection.

P8018 Single-ended Handheld TDR Probe

The P8018 Handheld TDR Probe is a 20 GHz, 50 Ω input impedance, single-ended passive probe that provides a high-performance solution for electrical sampling, TDR circuit board impedance characterization, and high-speed electrical signal analysis applications. The P8018 probe also includes a precision SMA cable and parallel control line that provides the 80A02 module the control for EOS/ESD protection.

80A02 EOS/ESD Protection Module

The 80A02 EOS/ESD Protection module protects the sampling bridge of Tektronix electrical sampling module inputs from damage by electrostatic charge. The 80A02 is intended for use in applications such as electrical TDR circuit board testing and cable testing where large static charges can be stored in the DUT.

When used with the matching P8018 20 GHz single-ended handheld probe or the P80318 differential handheld probe (both with probe tip pressure actuating feature) the 80A02 provides a superior technique and performance capability for electrical module EOS/ESD protection of acquired electrical signals and TDR measurements (two 80A02 modules required for differential applications).

80A03 TekConnect Probe Interface Module

The 80A03 provides probe power and control for up to two Tektronix P7000 Series probes. The 80A03 is powered through the oscilloscope and requires no user adjustments or external power cords. An Electrical Sampling module can be plugged directly into the slot on the 80A03 to provide the optimum system fidelity and a short electrical path. Using the 80A03, designers can benefit from industry-leading Tektronix active and differential probes to measure signals on SMD pins and other challenging circuit features.

SlotSaver Small Module Extender Cable

This cable can be used to power and operate one 80A02 or 80A06 accessory module, eliminating the need to consume a small form factor mainframe slot. The SlotSaver extender cable plugs into the ‘Trigger Power’ connector on the mainframe or (for 80A02) into the ‘Probe Power’ connector on most Electrical Sampling modules.

DSA8200 Application Software

Jitter, Noise, BER, and Serial Data Link Analysis (SDLA) Software

80SJNB speeds the identification of the underlying causes of both horizontal and vertical eye closure through separation of jitter and noise. With its unique insight into the constituent components of both jitter and noise, 80SJNB provides a highly accurate and complete BER calculation and eye contour analysis.

Additionally available in the software package is the first-ever set of features addressing the design issues of modern Serial Data Links: equalization with either FFE or DFE, channel emulation, support for fixture de-embedding, as well as full support for SSC – Spread Spectrum Clocking. When you combine jitter, noise, and BER analysis with the DSA8200 modular flexibility, uncompromised performance, and unmatched signal fidelity you get the ideal solution for next-generation high-speed serial data design validation and compliance testing. 80SJNB requires the 80A06 PatternSync module, which creates a trigger pulse on each complete pattern. 80SJNB may be used with the 82A04 Phase Reference module for enhanced accuracy or for SSC signals, or without it depending on your requirements. SSC max. amplitude 5000 ppm (6000 ppm) at 30 ±3 kHz. Version V2.1 and later of 80SJNB supports save and recall of the complete signal description. Also added is a new measurement DDPWS (Data Dependent Pulse Width Shrinkage) and a corresponding graph.

IConnect^® Signal Integrity TDR and S-parameter Software

Operating on the DSA8200 TDR platform, IConnect^® S-parameters is the most cost-effective and highest throughput approach for S-parameter measurements in digital design, signal integrity analysis, and interconnect compliance testing, providing as much as 50% cost savings compared to similar bandwidth VNAs, and dramatically speeding up measurements. You can also take advantage of the IConnect^® S-parameters command line interface, which automates the S-parameter measurements, to the overall suite of manufacturing tests you perform using your TDR instrument, significantly reducing test time while increasing measurement repeatability.

The simplicity of S-parameter calibration using a reference (open, short, or through), and an optional 50 Ω load makes the measurement, fixture de-embedding, and moving the reference plane a snap. Touchstone file format output enables easy S-parameter file sharing for further data analysis and simulations.

Tektronix offers several true-differential TDR modules, which in combination with IConnect^® offers S-parameter measurements to 50 GHz with up to 70 dB of dynamic range. This performance exceeds requirements for serial data analysis, digital design, and signal integrity applications, resolving down to 1% (–40 dB) accuracy of crosstalk, whereas electrical compliance testing masks typically call for the measurements in the –10 to –30 dB range.

IConnect^® software allows you to quickly and easily generate SPICE and IBIS models for your PCBs, flex boards, connectors, cables, packages, sockets, and I/O buffer inputs directly from TDR/T or VNA S-parameter measurements. IConnect^® allows you to display eye diagram degradation, jitter, loss, crosstalk, reflections, and ringing in your digital system. IConnect^® Linear Simulator allows the designer to link several interconnect channels together to evaluate the total time, frequency domain performance, and eye diagram of the overall channel. IConnect^® substantially simplifies the signal integrity analysis of the interconnect link, equalization and emphasis component design, and analysis of the interconnect link with transmitter and receiver.

S-parameter Performance Characteristics (80E10)

Measurement Conditions

All measurements were performed after proper warm up as specified in the DSA8200 manual
Standard S-parameter dynamic range measurement practices were used to determine the dynamic range of the module
Uncertainty results were derived from a wide range of devices, with 250 averages
Better dynamic range can be achieved by selecting lower bandwidth settings on the 80E10 module due to lower RMS noise floor
Results apply to single-ended or differential measurements
