N1010A FlexDCA Firmware Release Notes
A.02.50 Release Notes, October, 2013
(Differences from Release A.02.02)
General Comments
• Edited the 86118A module specification topic for adjusted 86118- H01 the channel
skew specification and for information added concerning 86118- H02 module's
1 mm input connectors.
• Added specifications for the 86105D- 281 module.
• Added specifications for the 86115D- 282 module.
General Defects Fixed
• Fixed a memory leak in the precision timebase synchronization. This leak would
cause the instrument to report insufficient memory error messages after several
days.
• Fixed a bug that prevented use of the knobs on the 86112A- HBW module.
• Improved the precision timebase synchronization to be less sensitive to signal
drift.
New Feature List
• New Jitter Spectrum Analysis (JSA) memory and ability to save JSA data files
(*.jsax). This allows JSA data to be viewed offline.
• When the jitter database is saved to disk, JSA is included if Clock Recovery
Emulation (CRE) is active.
• New tail fit method available in Jitter Mode, which enables the following new
scalar measurements:
• BUI (rms) for ones and zeros
•BUI (δ- δ) for ones and zeros
•BUJ
•BUJ (rms)
• Ability to measure TJ (Total Jitter), DJ (Deterministic Jitter), RJ (Random Jitter),
J2, J5, and J9 on long patterns such as PRBS31. This is accomplished within
FlexDCA with an option 401 license but without the use of the option 401
spreadsheet. A new Advanced Eye tab is enabled in Eye/Mask Mode. This feature
requires the option 401 Advanced Eye Analysis Software license.
