* The oscilloscope’s memory upgrade option is recommended (Option 001 when ordered with the oscilloscope, or after
purchase: E2680A for the 5485xA Series oscilloscopes, or N5404A for the 80000 and 90000A Series oscilloscopes). This
gives the automated test software more flexibility in making corner case measurements (and improves test performance).
The enhanced bandwidth software option is recommended for the Agilent 54855A oscilloscope (Option 008), and the noise
reduction software option is recommended for the 80000 and 90000A Series oscilloscopes (Option 005 when ordered with
the oscilloscope or N5403A after purchase). This reduces the bandwidth of the oscilloscope to just what is required by the
USB-IF (2 GHz for USB 2.0), which can greatly reduce system measurement noise, allowing the maximum measurement
margin.
For low/full speed testing, the Agilent 54831B/D or 54832B/D Infiniium oscilloscope with 1165A passive probes and 1147A
current probe can be used instead.
**The header adapter is not needed with hi-speed test fixtures (E2649-66401 through E2649-66405).
