Performance Verification
Step
4:
Check Delay Time Differential Accuracy
a. Use the Horizontal
POSITION
control to align the start of the A
Sweep with the
lSt
vertical graticule line.
b. Set the
B
DELAY TIME POSITION
control fully counterclockwise.
c. CHECK
-
lntensified portion of the trace starts within 0.5 division of
the start of the sweep.
d. Rotate the
B
DELAY TlME POSITION
control fully clockwise.
e. CHECK
-
lntensified portion of the trace is past the 1 1
th
vertical
graticule line.
f.
Set the
A
and
B
SECIDIV
switch to 0.5 ps.
g. Repeat parts a through e. When performing step c, check that the
trace starts with 1.1 division instead of 0.5 division.
h. Set:
CH
1
AC-GND-DC DC
B
SECIDIV
0.05 ps
B
DELAY TIME POSITION
Fully counterclockwise
i.
Select 0.5 us time markers from the time-mark generator.
j.
Rotate the
B
DELAY TlME POSITION
control so that the top of the
2nd
time marker on the
B
Sweep is aligned with a selected reference
vertical line. Record the
DLY=
readout for part use with part I.
k. Rotate the
B
DELAY TlME POSITION
control fully clockwise until
the top of the
10th time marker on the
B
Sweep is aligned with the
same selected reference vertical line as in part k. Record the
DLY=
readout for part use with part I.
I. CHECK
-
Delay time readout is within the limits given in Table A-12
(Delay Readout Limits column) by subtracting the delay time reading
in part
j
from part k.
m.
Repeat parts
j
through I for the remaining
B
SECIDIV
and time-mark
generator settings given in Table A-1
2,
check the eight division delay
time accuracy for each
A SECIDIV
switch setting given in column 1
of the table.
