Communication Signal Analyzers

CSA7000 Series

Trigger Modes

Edge – Positive or negative slope on any channel or
front panel auxiliary input. Coupling includes DC, AC,
noise reject, HF reject and LF reject.

Comm – Support for AMI, HDB3, BnZS, CMI, MLT3
and NRZ encoded communications signals.
AMI encoding: Standards include DS1, DS1A, DS1C,
DS3, E1, E2, E3, STS-1 or a custom bit rate. Select
between positive or negative isolated one, zero pulse
form or eye patterns.
HDB3 encoding: Standards include E1, E2, E3, DS1A
or custom bit rate. Select between positive or nega-
tive isolated one pulse or eye pattern.
BnZS encoding: Standards include DS1, DS1C, DS2,
DS3, STS-1 or custom bit rate. Select between

positive or negative isolated one pulse or eye pattern.
CMI encoding: Standards include STS-3, STM1E,
DS4NA, E4 or a custom bit rate. Select between
positive or negative one pulse, zero pulse or
eye pattern.
MLT3 encoding: Standards include 100 Base-TX.
NRZ encoding: Standards include OC1/STM0,
OC3/STM1, OC12/STM4, OC48/STM16, GB
Ethernet, FC133, FC266, FC531, FC1063, FC2125,
Infiniband 2.5, G1 ATA, FS USB, HS USB, IEEE
1394b S400b, S800b, S1600b, OC-48 FEC, 1000
BASE CX, Rapid I/O, SFI-5, SPI-5, VSR, PCJ-Express,
TFI-5; eye patterns only. CSA7154 limited to standards

1.25 Gbps.

Serial Pattern – 32-Bit serial word recognizer,
bits specified in binary (high, low, don’t care) or
hex format. Trigger on NRZ-encoded data up to
1.25 Gbaud.

Glitch – Trigger on or reject glitches of positive,
negative, or either polarity. Minimum glitch width is
1.0 ns with 200 ps resolution.

Width – Trigger on width of positive or negative
pulse either within or out of selectable time limits
(1 ns to 1 s).

Runt – Trigger on a pulse that crosses one thresh-
old but fails to cross a second threshold before
crossing the first again. Optional time qualification.
