Live indicator shows when the scope is running a long operation. See your signal more clearly with a large 15.4-inch XGA (1024 x 768) highresolution color touch-screen display. Identify anomalies easily with a 256-level intensity-graded or colorgraded persistence display. Use variable persistence for even more display options.
A new 100-MHz reference clock ties up to ten 90000 Q-Series scopes together with sub 200 fs precision. A 10-MHz clock allows tying multiple instruments together with the 90000 Q-Series. Multipurpose knob and button allow you to customize the oscilloscope’s front panel to perform the operations you use the most. Measure section, including a toggling marker button and a dedicated marker knob, provides quick access to your marker control.
Achieve your real edge Realize your best design Low noise and jitter The 90000 Q-Series features the lowest noise floor and jitter measurements, allowing you to truly see your signal and get your device to market faster. PrecisionProbe By characterizing and compensating for loss in cables, you can gain significant margin. Agilent’s PrecisionProbe software was used to gain 10% margins in this PCI Express gen3 design.
Compliance software Agilent’s compliance software packages are certified by experts and provide assurance when you pass in-house you will pass at your customer site as well. Protocol analysis Infiniium protocol tools simplify debugging your design. Infiniium scopes offer full protocol analysis for PCI Express gen 1, 2, and 3. The 128b/130b decoding features a lister that makes alignment between the lister and analog channels simple.
Analysis tools: PrecisionProbe basic and advanced (options 001 and 827) Turn your 90000 Q-Series oscilloscope into a time-domain transmissometry (TDT) and quickly characterize and compensate any input into your scope. PrecisionProbe technology turns your oscilloscope into the ultimate characterization tool.
Analysis tools: EZJIT, EZJIT + and SDA (standard on DSA models) Gain insight into the causes of signal jitter to ensure high reliability of your design With faster edge speeds and shrinking data-valid windows in today’s highspeed digital designs, insight into the causes of jitter has become critical for success. Using EZJIT and EZJIT + jitter analysis software the Q-Series oscilloscopes help you identify and quantify jitter components that affect the reliability of your design.
Analysis tools: EZJIT Complete (standard on DSA models) Discover signal anomalies to the noise of the waveform More than your standard jitter package In order to efficiently determine root cause for any type of signal degradation in the amplitude domain, you must first determine whether the problem is caused by random or deterministic sources.
Analysis tools: InfiniiSim (options 014 and 015) The most advanced waveform transformation software helps you render waveforms anywhere in a digital serial data link InfiniiSim waveform transformation toolset provides the most flexible and accurate means to render waveforms anywhere in a digital serial data link.
Analysis tools: serial data equalization (option 012) Significantly reduce receiver errors by opening even tightly shut eyes through equalization emulation Serial data equalization for the 90000 Q-Series provides fast and accurate equalization using decision feedback equalization (DFE), feed-forward equalization (FFE), and continuoustime linear equalization (CTLE) modeling in real time.
