Tektronix CR175A Options:
- 17GJ - Jitter spectrum analysis
- PCIE - PCIe PLL analysis at 2.5 G and 5 G (requires jitter spectrum option)
- PCIE8G - PCIe PLL analysis at 2.5 G, 5 G and 8 G (requires jitter spectrum option)
- XLBW - Extended loop bandwidth (to 24 MHz)
The CR175A is the 17.5 Gb/s version of the BERTScope clock recovery instrument, covering 150 Mb/s to 17.5 Gb/s. It measures and displays the PLL frequency response and gives full control of loop bandwidth, peaking and roll-off, and can view and measure spread spectrum clocking.
Shares the CR125A feature set, with options for jitter spectrum analysis, PCIe PLL analysis and extended 24 MHz loop bandwidth; used for high-speed I/O design verification and serial standards compliance testing alongside a BERTScope or oscilloscope.
