Lowest intrinsic jitter
The patented 86107A precision
timebase reference module represents
one of the most significant
improvements in wide-bandwidth
sampling oscilloscopes in over a
decade. Jitter performance has
been reduced by almost an order
of magnitude to 200 fs RMS.
Oscilloscope jitter is virtually
eliminated! The reduced jitter of the
86107A precision timebase module
allows you to measure the true jitter
of your signal. When using the
86107A, the minimum timebase
resolution for oscilloscope and
eye/mask displays is 500 fs/division,
rather than 2 ps/div with the
standard timebase.

and now with 86107A precision
timebase module (bottom).
The standard timebase of the
86100C has very low intrinsic
jitter compared to other advanced
waveform analysis solutions.
However, for users who need the
absolute best sensitivity for their
jitter measurements, the 86107A
provides the ultimate timebase
performance. Using the 86107A
with Jitter Mode requires the
Option 101 Advanced Waveform
Analysis software package. Jitter
measurements with the 86107A are
targeted at users who are trying to
accurately measure very low levels
of jitter and need to minimize the
jitter contribution of the scope.
The 86107A requires an electrical
reference clock that is synchronous
with the signal under test. For
specific requirements of the clock
signal, see the 86107A specifications
on page 11.
Accurate views of your
40 Gb/s waveforms
When developing 40 Gb/s devices,
even a small amount of inherent
scope jitter can become significant
since 40 Gb/s waveforms only have
a bit period of 25 ps. Scope jitter
of 1ps RMS can result in 6 to 9 ps
of peak-to-peak jitter, causing
eye closure even if your signal is
jitter-free. The Agilent 86107A
reduces the intrinsic jitter of 86100
family mainframes to the levels
necessary to make quality waveform
measurements on 40 Gb/s signals.
Meeting your growing need
for more bandwidth
Today’s communication signals have
significant frequency content well
beyond an oscilloscope’s 3-dB
bandwidth. A high-bandwidth scope
does not alone guarantee an accurate
representation of your waveform.
Careful design of the scope’s
frequency response (both amplitude
and phase) minimizes distortion
such as overshoot and ringing.
The Agilent 86116A, 86116B and
86109B are plug-in modules that
include an integrated optical
receiver designed to provide the
optimum in bandwidth, sensitivity,
and waveform fidelity. The 86116B
extends the bandwidth of the
86100C infiniium DCA-J to 80 GHz
electrical, 65 GHz optical in the
1550 nm wavelength band. The
86116A covers the 1300 nm and
1550 nm wavelength bands with
63 GHz of electrical bandwidth and
53 GHz of optical bandwidth. The
86109B is an economical solution
with 50 GHz electrical and 40 GHz
optical bandwidth. You can build
the premier solution for 40 Gb/s
waveform analysis around the 86100
mainframe that you already own.
