Compliance Testing in Manufacturing
User-installed,
Oscilloscope-resident Communication Physical Layer Compliance Measurement
Package
Compliance to industry standards is key to the success
of telecommunications manufacturers. Telecommunications pulse mask
testing of electrical signals has been done with oscilloscopes for
years because of features such as variable time delay, voltage scales,
and communications triggers. TDSCPM2 software on a a DPO7000, DPO70000,
or DSA70000 Series oscilloscope, with AMT75 or AFTDS electrical interface
adapters provide the third-generation Digital Interface Test System
(DITS) needed for full electrical compliance testing.
Mask
testing (standard on DSA70000 Series and optional on DPO7000 and DPO70000
Series instruments) provides waveform masks, autoset and auto-fit
to mask, as well as built-in mask margin and editing capability. The
AFTDS electrical adapter provides the bantam adapter input for signals
less than 8 Mb/s, and the AMT75 provides a precision 75 Ω termination
for electrical signals greater than 8 Mb/s up to 1 GHz. TDSCPM2 software
completes the solution with compliance measurements and Pass/Fail
Indication on Pulse Amplitude, Spectral Power, Pulse Imbalance, Pulse
Symmetry, and Zero Level. This combination of mask and compliance
measurement testing ensures compliance with ANSI T1.102 and ITU-T
G.703 industry standards.
TDSCPM2 software is easily installed
from a CD. After installation, the application is accessible from
the oscilloscope's touch screen or by using a mouse.
