Main characteristics and technical indicators
Operating speeds from 9.90 to 11.35 Gb/s when using the internal clock synthesizer
Operating speeds from 0.5 to 12.5 Gb/s when using an external clock
Multiple clock and pattern triggers
Differential or single-ended inputs and outputs
Programmable output amplitude control
Highly integrated (low part count + low heat = high reliability)
Optional PRBS pattern length, cursor space density
Local button and GPIB remote interface
description
The Keysight N4962A is a cost-effective 10G BERT consisting of an internal clock system, a PRBS generator and a bit error detector. It is primarily used for testing, manufacturing and characterization on automated production lines. The N4962A features a highly integrated custom ASIC that reduces part count and operating temperature for greater reliability. The N4962A also features a compact form factor and a simple user interface, making it ideal for use on production test benches.
