Jitter Performance Test
24 Record the value of the standard deviation as Jitter RMS.
Jitter RMS = _____________ ps
25 Calculate the test limit:
For 86100A instrument serial prefix numbers below US4051 (without option K10):
Test Limit = <2.5 ps + (Horizontal Delay from Step 15 multiplied by 5*10
5
)
Test Limit =
_____________ps
For 86100A instrument serial prefix numbers below US4051 with
option K10:
Test Limit = <1.5 ps + (Horizontal Delay from Step 15 multiplied by 5*10
5
)
Test Limit =
_____________ps
For all 86100B serial numbers, and 86100A instrument serial prefix numbers US4051 and
above:
Test Limit = <1.5 ps + (Horizontal Delay from Step 15 multiplied by 5*10
5
)
Test Limit = _____________ps
Example for a Delay Setting of 31.67 ns and test limit of <2.5 ps:
Test Limit =2.5*10
–12
+ (31.67*10
–9
x 5*10
–5
)
2.5*10
–12
+ 1.58*10
–12
4.08 ps
26 Compare the results of Jitter RMS to the Test Limit. Record both values in the Performance Test
Record.
