User Guide
■ PRBS23—Selects pseudo-random 23-bit sequences.
■ PRBS31—Selects pseudo-random 31-bit sequences.
■ HF1—highest frequency divide-by-2 data pattern 10101010.
■ HF2—next highest frequency divide-by-4 data pattern 1100110011001100.
■ HF3—second lowest frequency divide-by-8 data pattern 1111000011110000.
■ LF SMA, SFP, Bull’s Eye—lowest frequency divide-by-40 data pattern.
■ LF—Chip-to-chip divide-by-32 data pattern.
1 Settings HF1, HF2, HF3, LF are for transmit observation only.
Error Control
The Error control control displays data errors detected during analysis and allows
you to insert errors:
■ Detected errors—Displays the number of data errors detected in the hardware.
■ Inserted errors—Displays the number of errors inserted into the transmit data
stream.
■ Insert Error—Inserts a one-word error into the transmit data stream each time you
click the button. Insert Error is only enabled during transaction performance
analysis.
■ Clear—Resets the Detected errors and Inserted errors counters to zeros.
■ Word error rate—Detected word errors/total received words.
Loopback
These controls display current transaction performance analysis information collected
since you last clicked Start:
■ TX and RX performance bars—Show the percentage of maximum theoretical data
rate that the requested transactions are able to achieve.
■ Tx (MBps) and Rx (MBps)—Show the number of bytes of data analyzed per
second.
Start
The Start control initiates transaction performance analysis.
Stop
The Stop control terminates transaction performance analysis.
