Specifications and Characteristics

This chapter contains specifications and characteristics for the 71501C and

70874C Jitter and Eye Diagram Analyzer.

Definitions of

Terms

The distinction between specifications, characteristics, typical performance,

and nominal values is described as follows:

• Specifications describe warranted performance over the temperature range

0°C to +55°C (unless otherwise noted). All specifications apply after the in-

strument’s temperature has been stabilized after 1 hour continuous opera-

tion and self-calibration routines have been run. Unless otherwise noted,

corrected limits are given when specifications are subject to minimization

with error-correction routines.

• Characteristics provide useful, but nonwarranted information about the

functions and performance of the instrument. Characteristics are printed

in italics.

• Typical Performance, where listed, is not warranted, but indicates performance

which most units will exhibit.

• Nominal Value indicates the expected, but not warranted, value of the param-

eter.
