Data Sheet
1-Slot, C-size, register based Two output channels · 16 Kbit patterns per channel · Fast transition times: 2 ns to 200 ms variable (E8311A), 0.8 ns or 1.6 ns selectable (E8312A) · Functionally compatible with the 81110A · Broad range of trigger and synchronization capabilities

Description
The Agilent Technologies E8311A and E8312A Pulse/Pattern Generators are C-size, 1-slot, register-based VXI modules. Both generators offer highly accurate digital signals up to 165 MHz/330 MHz respectively and feature two output channels. They are both shipped with VXIplug&play software drivers. The generators can be used for a wide variety of applications, ranging from: ·Functional verification of high-speed digital or mixedsignal devices, ·Clock generation for synchronization of an automated test system, ·Radar testing, ·Serial bus testing, ·Flash memory testing. The E8311A and E8312A Pulse/Pattern Generators can be easily integrated into all phases of test system development. They are functionally compatible (programming and features) with the 81110A. This compatibility facilitates the transition of test routines used in laboratories (handling R&D and quality test applications running on the 81100 family of box instruments) to the production site. Refer to the Agilent Technologies Website for instrument driver availability and downloading instructions, as well as for recent product updates, if applicable.

Pattern Mode
·Pattern length: 16 Kbit/channel and strobe output ·Output format: RZ (return to zero), NRZ (non-return to zero), DNRZ (delayed non-return to zero). ·Random pattern: PRBS 2n-1, n = 7,8,...,14.

Glitch-free Timing Changes
Now you can sweep your timing values without the danger of spurious pulses or dropouts that could cause measurement errors. (Applies to continuous modes, values <100 ms, consecutive values between 0.5 and twice the previous value.)

Trigger Modes
· Continuous: Continuous pulses, double pulses, bursts (single or double pulses) or patterns. · External* triggered: Each active input transition (rising, falling or both) generates a single or double pulse, burst or pattern. · External* gated: The active input level (high or low) enables pulses, double pulses, bursts or patterns. The last single/double pulse, burst or pattern is always completed. · External* width: The pulse shape can be recovered. Period and width of an external input signal is maintained. Delay, levels and transitions can be set. · Manual: Simulates an external input signal. · Internal triggered: Internal PLL or up-command replaces an external trigger source. Pulses, double pulses, bursts or patterns can be set. · *External: Choice of sources as described under the "Inputs/Outputs" section.

Test Logic Technologies
The E8311A and E8312A Pulse/Pattern Generators generate all the standard pulses and digital patterns needed to test current logic technologies (CMOS, TTL, LVDS, ECL, etc.). Multi-level and multi-timing signals up to 60 MHz can be obtained using the internal channel addition feature. Burst count: 2 to 65536 (single or double pulses). Delay: Delay, phase or % of period. Double pulse and delay: Mutually exclusive. Duty cycle: Set between 0.1% and 95% (subject to width limits. 99.9% with overprogramming). Transition times: Leading/trailing edge or % of width. Leading and trailing edges are independent (E8311A only) within one of the following overlapping segments (1:20 ratio): ·2 ns (3 ns) ­ 20 ns ·10 ns ­ 200 ns ·100 ns ­ 2 ms ·1 µs ­ 20 µs ·10 µs ­ 200 µs ·100 µs ­ 2 ms ·1 ms ­ 20 ms ·10 ms ­ 200 ms Output timing fidelity: Period, delay and width are continuously variable without any output glitches or dropouts. Repeatability: Typically four times better than accuracy. Level parameters: Voltage or current, high or low level, offset or amplitude. Load compensation: The individual load value can be entered (for loads 50 ) to output the actual values (only E8311A). On/off: Relays connect/disconnect output (HiZ). Normal/complement: Selectable. Limit: Programmable high and low levels can be limited to protect the device-under-test.

Clock Generation

Synchronization of an automated test system can be realized by clock distribution with the new Agilent VXI pulse/pattern generators. Two channels combined with the 16-Kbit pattern capability supports even dual clock frequencies within the one module. Variable delay ranges combined with a fixed trigger-in to signal-out delay allow synchronization even at precise points in time.

Reliable Measurements
Both models with their self-calibration provide clean, accurate pulses with excellent repeatability and reliability, thereby contributing to measurement integrity.
