1-1 Front-End Module and Time
Interval Analyzer (TIA)
The Time Interval Analyzer implementation of the Agilent 93000
SOC Series comprises the actual TIA instrument in the analog
support rack and a front-end module in the testhead.
This arrangement and the basic functions of the front-end module
and the TIA have already been explained in the lesson “Time
Interval Analyzer” on page 94 of the Unit “Analog Hardware”.
Here is a short repetition of the main functions:
Front-End Module
• signal conditioning of the incoming signals to provide the TIA
instruments with two-level signals that allow a clean edge
detection
• input termination
• loop-back routing and routing for dc measurements
• routing of input lines (up to 4 of 7) to the connected TIA
instrument(s)
Time Interval Analyzer
Performs time measurements for the input signals on Input
Channel 1 (also called Start channel) and/or Channel 2 (also
called Stop channel), stores the results and performs calculations
on the stored values.
The TIA can perform four kinds of time interval measurements:
