10G-KR - 10BASE-KR/KR4 Compliance, Debug, and Decode Solution Measurement details 72.7.1.11 Output Waveform Coefficient Update and Status - 10GBASE-KR requires the user to measure specific regions of the waveform such as overshoot and de-emphasis levels to determine the transmitter output equalization levels. Details of the IEEE 802.3ap specification measurements covered in 10G-KR Figure 72-12—Transmitter output waveform Transmitter output waveform requirements There are six taps and the state of the transmitter equalizer, and as a result the transmitter output waveform, is manipulated...

72.6.5 Differential Peak-Peak Output Voltage (Max) with Tx Disabled – Measured when Tx is disabled. The differential output voltage is constrained according to the transmitter output waveform requirements specified in 72.7.1.10 of IEEE 802.3ap. For a 1010 pattern, the peak-peak differential output voltage shall be less than 1200 mV, regardless of equalization setting. The transmitter output voltage shall be less than 30 mV peak-peak when disabled. The differential output voltage test pattern shall consist of no fewer than eight symbols of alternating polarity. Transmit jitter test...

SMA cables, probe, and Keithley RF switch Design engineers who may want to solder the probe to the backplane copper lanes can do so because 10G-KR provides support for P7516, P7520, and P7520A TriMode probes. Engineers who want to make use of cost-effective SMA cables can directly connect SMA cables to their devices and monitor the signals on the Tektronix oscilloscopes. Engineers working on four lanes of KR can make use of Keithley RF switches to automate their complete setup.

10G-KR -- 10BASE-KR/KR4 Compliance, Debug, and Decode Solution 10GBASE-KR custom decode feature Comprehensive search capability 10G-KR Custom Decode provides protocol decoding to disassemble the 10GBASE-KR Ethernet 64b/66b traffic, including time-correlated views of physical and Protocol layers. Decode results are displayed as a waveform and an event-table, along with red flags on CRC/ECC errors in the decoded data. You can view protocol decode along with time stamps on the decoded data in event-tables. The 10G-KR packet content search function is very useful for isolating an event of...
