APPENDIX A
Receiver Sensitivity Test Waveform Setup
This section describes the characteristics of the required waveforms used for device or hub receiver sensitivity
testing. Either a two channel pattern generator, such as the Agilent 81130A, or a two channel arbitrary waveform
generator (AWG) can be used. Two Tabor WW1281A one channel AWG can also be used with a specific
synchronization cable. The specific steps used to create the waveforms will vary depending on the model of
generator being used. Please consult the documentation for details.
MIN_ADD1
Description: IN Token of nominal bitrate and amplitude with the shortest allowable sync field (12 bits).
Bitrate: 480 Mb/s
High Level (both channels): 400 mV
Low Level (both channels): 0 mV
Pattern length: 44 bits
Repetition Rate: 2 us (both channels should be at 0 mV for 916 bits following the pattern)
