Linear Equalizer 21Gb/s.
The Tektronix LE160 is a Linear Equalizer and supports signal equalization on data rates from 4 Gb/s to 21 Gb/s.
20 dB automatic or manual gain control
Integrated variable gain amplifier with differential 50 mV sensitivity
Clock-less design transfers incident signal impairments to outputs. No clock to data alignment concerns
9 user adjustable fixed width taps spaced 24 ps apart on the LE160
Fixed tap delay design eliminates external reference clock requirements
USB programmable receiver gain and multi UI equalization allows 20 dB of equalization
USB programmable channel modeling allows electronic channel emulation
USB programmable pre-emphasis and differential outputs amplitude well in excess of 2 V differential
USB programmable output duty cycle symmetry control
Precision output level controls permit signaling from “0” (Return to Zero) well in excess of 2 V differentially
User defined presets and stored configurations tailored for key technologies
