Jitter Tolerance Test Specifications
The built-in jitter sources are designed to cover DisplayPort,
PCI Express, SATA, USB3, Fibre Channel, QPI, Hypertransport,
FB-DIMM, CEI 6 G/11 G, 10 GbE and XFP/XFI, SFP+ jitter toler-
ance test needs.
Periodic jitter (Option J10)
This injects sinusoidal, rectangular
or triangular jitter over a wide
frequency range.

SSC – spread spectrum clocking (Option J11)
The built-in SSC clock modulation source is available only in combi-
nation with Option J10. It either generates a frequency modulated
clock signal (SSC) or a phase modulated clock signal (residual SSC)
as used in some computer or storage standards such as PCIe, USB
and SATA to spread EMI. If residual SSC is enabled, sinusoidal jitter
is not available, however all other jitter sources can be used. If SSC
is enabled, sinusoidal jitter is available in a limited range, however
all other jitter sources can be used without restrictions. SSC (% of
max) + SJ (% of max) ≤ 100%.
Table 12. Spread spectrum clocking (SSC) characteristics
SSC frequency deviation:
up-spread/down-spread
0 to -0.5% (5,000 ppm),
2% typical accuracy
SSC frequency deviation:
center-spread
0 to 1.0% pp (10,000 ppm),
2 % typical accuracy. Can be
used also for down-spread
SSC, allowing more SJ range
Residual SSC phase modulation 0 to 100 ps
Modulation frequency 100 Hz to 100 kHz
Modulation waveform Triangular or arbitrary.
Arbitrary files can be uploaded
as txt file. Values from -1.0 to
+1.0 for 1.0% center-spread
modulation, maximum of
16384 data points
Signals impacted Can be enabled for either data
and aux data output and/or
clock output and trigger/ref
clock out
