Electrical Clock Recovery Modules

80A05/80A07 Modules for DSA8200 Series Oscilloscopes

Features & Benefits

  • Electrical Clock Recovery for:
    • Enumerated Bit Rates between 50 Mb/s and 12.6 Gb/s
    • Continuously Variable Rates from 100 Mb/s to 12.5 Gb/s Enables Support for Current, Emerging, and Future Bit Rate Needs
  • High Jitter Tolerance, Slow Slew Rate Tolerance for Recovering Clocks from Stressed, Degraded, or Spread-spectrum Clocked Signals
  • Excellent Time Base Stability and Ultra-low Residual Jitter (as low as 250 fsRMS) for Best Measurement System Fidelity
  • Unequaled PLL Bandwidth and Roll-off Shape Control (Tunable loop bandwidth of 100 kHz to 12 MHz) Enables Control Required by Many Compliance Standard Tests
  • Clean 50 Ω Path for the Best Signal Acquisition Fidelity

Applications

  • High-speed Serial Data Link and Device Characterization for Computer, Communications, and Consumer Applications
  • Compliance Testing of Electrical Signaling
  • High-speed Optical Communications Testing
  • Jitter, Noise, BER, and Signal Impairment Analysis
  • Testing of Frequency Agile or Multirate Devices

The 80A05 and 80A07 Electrical Clock Recovery Modules enable clock recovery for electrical signals. Additionally, the 80A05 provides internal routing of the recovered clock for triggering of the 8200*1 Series oscilloscopes.

The 80A05 recovers clocks from serial data streams for all of the most common electrical standards in the 50 Mb/s to 3.188 Gb/s range (continuous coverage) plus the (fixed) rate of 4.25 Gb/s. Option 10G adds support for user-selectable rates in the following ranges:

  • 3.267 to 4.250 Gb/s;
  • 4.900 to 6.375 Gb/s; and
  • 9.800 to 12.60 Gb/s range

The 80A05 provides high level of integration and the best sensitivity available, and is the optimal solution for testing of optical transmitter components and electrical components of optical systems. The 80A05 PLL loop bandwidth selection is automatic with no interaction, leading to easy setup and operation.

The 80A07 recovers clocks from serial data streams for all of the most common electrical standards in the continuous 100 Mb/s to 12.5 Gb/s range. Auto-locking capability is selectable from the user interface or programmatic interface, so the design and test engineers can search and lock onto signals of unknown data rates. The 80A07 offers complete configurability and state-of-the-art specifications and is the preferred solution for most serial data standards due to excellent stability, superior Jitter and slew rate tolerance for recovering clocks from stressed or degraded signals, and unequaled PLL bandwidth and roll-off shape control for either Golden PLL compliance testing or custom PLL response. The 80A07 also locks on spread-spectrum signals.

In addition to standard rate support, users can specify custom bit rates on either of the two modules in order to test devices, modules, and systems running at emerging or nonstandard rates. The wide clock recovery ranges support for user-specified bit rates provide complete clock recovery solutions for testing a wide range of computer, communications, and consumer electronics signaling rates and standards.

The 80C12 optical module with either the 80A05 or 80A07 clock recovery modules provides a complete solution for optical rates between 155 Mb/s and 12.6 Gb/s.

*1 Also compatible with CSA/TDS8200, CSA/TDS8000B, and CSA/TDS8000 sampling oscilloscopes.

Both modules accept either single-ended or differential signals at their inputs. With either single-ended or differential signals, the attenuated but otherwise unmodified input signal is available on output connectors on the front panel of the modules. The signal path to these front-panel outputs has been carefully designed to preserve signal fidelity well beyond the frequency corresponding to the maximum bit rate addressed by the clock recovery circuit. The front-panel output signals can therefore be connected to a high-frequency sampling module (such as 80E07) and be acquired for analysis while preserving high-frequency features of the signal.

Tektronix clock recovery solutions combine simplicity of use with excellent flexibility; the full rate recovered clock or its sub-rate is available on the modules’ front panel to clock or trigger other equipment.

Interconnect Cables

015-0560-xx - (450 mm/18 in.; 1 dB loss at 20 GHz) cable is a high-quality cable recommended for work to 20 GHz.

Interconnect Cables (3rd party)

Tektronix recommends using quality high-performance interconnect cables with Tektronix high-bandwidth products in order to minimize measurement degradation and variations. The W.L. Gore & Associates' cable assemblies are compatible with the 2.92 mm, 2.4 mm, and 1.85 mm connector interface. Assemblies can be ordered by contacting Gore by phone at (800) 356-4622, or on the web at www.gore.com/tektronix.

Firmware Support

The 80A07 is a standalone clock recovery module and as such has its own front-panel controls. In addition, it ships with a virtual front-panel control application which can be installed on 8200*1 Series sampling oscilloscopes running version 2.0 or later or on a Windows PC running Windows 2000 or Windows XP. The controlling processor (8200*1 Series oscilloscope or Windows PC) must be connected to the 80A07 by a USB cable in order for this virtual front-panel control application to work.

When running on an 8200*1 Series sampling oscilloscope or Windows PC, the virtual front-panel control application can be started from the Windows desktop or start menu. Additionally, if the 8200*1 Series sampling oscilloscope is running firmware version 2.4 or later, this control application can be invoked using the Apps menu within the sampling oscilloscope application.

Remote control of the 80A07 is available with a software development kit which comes standard with the 80A07.

*1 Also compatible with CSA/TDS8200, CSA/TDS8000B, and CSA/TDS8000 sampling oscilloscopes.
