Keysight N1076A/N1077A DCA-M Clock Recovery
The N1076A electrical clock recovery and N1077A electrical/optical clock
recovery provide necessary clock signals to trigger an 86100D,
N109x-series DCA-M oscilloscopes, or the error detector in a M8070A.
You can use an N1076/7A when:
• Access to appropriate clock signals from the Device Under Test (DUT) is
not possible. The clock is recovered from the data stream.
• The existing clock has excessive intrinsic jitter that prevents accurate
measurements. The N1076/7A can act as clean-up PLL for the clock.
• Input data is between 50 MBd and 16 GBd (32 GBd with option 232).
