Keysight Technologies M8040A-32G

32 GBaud integrated bit error ratio (BER) test solution for physical layer characterization

Rent or Lease • Buy Used From $154,700

Keysight Technologies - M8040A-32G

The Keysight Technologies M8040A-32G is a highly integrated BERT (Bit Error Rate Tester) for physical layer characterization and compliance testing. With support for PAM-4 and NRZ signals and data rates up to 32 GBaud.

The M8040A BERT offers true error analysis and provides repeatable and accurate results optimizing the performance margins of your 400GbE devices. The M8040A can be used for receiver (input) testing for many popular interconnect standards that use PAM-4 and NRZ data formats, such as: 50/100/200 GbE, OIF CEI-56G and CEI-112G, Infiniband-HDR and proprietary interfaces for chip-to-chip, chip-to-module, backplanes, repeaters and active optical cables. Freely defined test points, e.g. jitter frequencies, without the need for pre-calculating pattern. Integrated sources for periodic jitter, random jitter and bounded uncorrelated jitter stress generation.

M8040A-32G Product Highlights

  • data rates from 2 to 32 Gbaud PAM4 signal
  • built-in de-emphasis, analyzer equalization, and clock recovery
  • integrated and calibrated jitter injection: RJ, PJ1, PJ2, SJ, BUJ, and clk / 2 jitter
  • two pattern generator channels per module to emulate aggressor lane
  • interactive link training and SKP OS filtering for 8 / 16 / 32 GT/s PCI Express®
  • algorithmic PRBS, QPRBS, and memory-based patterns, pattern sequencer
  • for PAM4, gray coding, FEC encoding, and precoder and error distribution analysis
  • all options and modules are upgradeable
  • offers true error analysis and provides repeatable and accurate results, optimizing the performance margins of your devicesseamless operation with BERT/scope and arbitrary waveform generators

What is the Keysight M8040A high-performance BERT designed for?

The Keysight M8040A is a highly integrated bit error rate tester for physical layer characterization and compliance testing of devices operating with symbol rates up to 32 Gbaud and 64 Gbaud. It supports both PAM4 and NRZ signal formats, making it suitable for 400/200 GbE, OIF CEI-56G, OIF CEI-112G, PCI Express 32/16/8 GT/s, Thunderbolt 3, 64G/112G Fibre Channel, and InfiniBand HDR interfaces.

What are the data output specifications of the M8040A pattern generator?

The M8040A pattern generator module M8045A with remote head M8057B delivers symbol rates from 2.025 to 58 Gbaud (with over-programming to 64.8 Gbaud for Option G64). Single-ended amplitude with the M8057B remote head reaches 80 mV to 0.9 Vpp, or 160 mV to 1.8 Vpp differential. Transition times are typically 9 ps (20% to 80%) for symbol rates above 32.4 Gbaud, and 11 ps for rates at or below 32.4 Gbaud.

Does the M8040A support both PAM4 and NRZ signal formats?

Yes, the M8040A supports both PAM4 and NRZ formats, selectable directly from the user interface without reconnecting cables. NRZ operation covers data rates from 2 Gb/s to 64 Gb/s, while PAM4 mode operates at symbol rates from 2.025 to 32 Gbaud (Option 0P3) or up to 64 Gbaud (with additional Option 0P6). At 64 Gbaud PAM4, the effective data rate reaches 128 Gbit/s.

What jitter injection capabilities does the M8040A provide for receiver stress testing?

The M8040A provides built-in and calibrated jitter sources that can be used simultaneously, including random jitter (RJ), two tones of periodic jitter (PJ1 and PJ2), sinusoidal jitter (SJ), bounded uncorrelated jitter (BUJ), clock/2 jitter, and spread-spectrum clocking (SSC). The pattern generator also supports injection of random interference (RI) and sinusoidal interference (SI) through couplers, with M8000 software controlling external sources such as the M8054A interference source or M8195A/M8196A AWGs.

How does the M8040A remote head concept improve test signal quality?

The M8040A uses remote head M8057A/B modules connected by 0.85 m cables to the pattern generator module M8045A. Each remote head contains an adjustable gain amplifier without a re-timer, allowing users to position the output closely to the device under test board. This short connection minimizes signal degradation caused by lossy channels, delivering clean PAM4 and NRZ signals with fast transitions and low intrinsic jitter directly at the test point.

What de-emphasis capabilities does the M8040A pattern generator offer?

With Option 0G4, the M8045A pattern generator provides built-in de-emphasis using a 4-tap (5-coefficient) FIR filter with both positive and negative cursors. The coefficients include two pre-cursors (c0, c1) adjustable from 0.0 to 0.40, a main cursor (c2) up to 1.0, and two post-cursors (c3, c4) up to 0.40, each with 0.01 resolution. The sum of all absolute coefficient values must not exceed 1.0, and settings apply independently to each channel for both NRZ and PAM4 modes.

What error analysis capabilities does the M8040A analyzer module provide for PAM4 signals?

The M8046A analyzer module provides true PAM4 error detection in real-time, analyzing all three thresholds (Vlow, Vmid, Vupp) simultaneously for correct symbol error measurement. It can measure error ratios down to 10^-15 or error-free, even for long PRBS 2^31-1, QPRBS13-CEI, or QPRBS31-CEI patterns. Errored symbols at levels 0, 1, 2, and 3 can be counted separately for debugging purposes. The analyzer also includes built-in equalization to re-open closed eyes and integrated clock recovery.

What Forward Error Correction encoding does the M8040A support?

With Option 0G9, the M8045A pattern generator supports FEC encoding according to IEEE 802.3cd (draft 3.1) 50GBASE-R using Reed-Solomon code RS(544,514). The scrambler uses PRBS 2^58-1, with PAM4 line coding at 26.5625 Gbaud. Users can inject pre-FEC errors (single BIP insertion) and post-FEC errors (randomly distributed FEC symbol errors with selectable amount per frame). A PAM4 pre-coder using 1/(1+D) mod4 can be switched on or off as needed.
