Clock Analysis Tool
This tool combines a few different measurement tools in the SIA-3000. By doing this, a large number of
useful results can be displayed quickly. The Measure Option button allows you to toggle on or off certain
measurements. The measurement settings provide the best configuration to a variety of users. This ease
of use means that there is less control over individual settings. There may be instances where there is
the need to have more control over a specific measurement. An example would be changing the trigger
delay on the oscilloscope, or measuring a histogram over two periods rather than single period jitter.
Another example would be to find very low frequency jitter below the (clock/1667) low cutoff frequency
of this tool.
In any of these cases, you can press Current View Diagnostic Tool from the view you are in to open that
specific tool, make the measurement and have control over a larger number of settings. If viewing the
Oscilloscope view, Pressing "Current View Diagnostic Tool" will open the Oscilloscope tool. You now have
access to many more configuration settings. If viewing the Histogram view, Pressing "Current View
Diagnostic Tool" will open the Histogram tool and allow different settings.
This tool has a variety of views. The displayed results are determined by the selections in the Measure
Options menu. The default is to perform all measurements.
