The J7160B is a jitter noise generator in the J7000B series that produces additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) for modeling random jitter in high-speed serial data systems. It operates from 1 GHz to 60 GHz with an output noise power of -8 dBm and a noise spectral density of -110 dBm/Hz, offering ±5 dB flatness. The unit supports differential inputs and outputs, features a 7-inch touch-screen display, and includes up to five optional bandlimiting filters. It has SMA female connectors, operates on 115 VAC at 60 Hz, and has dimensions of 17.22 in. wide x 6.30 in. high x 19.5 in. deep. Noise attenuation is adjustable from 0 to 63 dB in 0.1 dB steps up to 2 GHz, with a crest factor of at least 18 dB. Remote control is available via Ethernet or optional GPIB.
The J7000B jitter noise generator generates additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) with a large crest factor to model “real world” random jitter. This random jitter is commonly referred to as Rj in the industry accepted jitter hierarchy model and managing Rj is critical to the performance and capability of high-speed communication busses and devices. Today’s high-speed digital circuit designers are challenged with narrow jitter tolerances to deliver high data rates with low bit error rate (BER). Designing a system that is not only compliant to industry specifications but also robust enough to handle jitter and maintain an acceptable bit error rate is a never ending challenge and only gets harder as frequency and data rate increase.
