What channels does the Keysight N1092C DCA-M include?

The N1092C is a hybrid sampling oscilloscope featuring one optical channel and two electrical channels. This configuration allows engineers to simultaneously analyze optical and electrical signals in the same measurement system, making it ideal for comprehensive transmitter and receiver characterization in high-speed digital communication systems.

What electrical bandwidth settings are available on the N1092C?

The N1092C provides four user-selectable electrical bandwidth settings: 20 GHz, 33 GHz, 40 GHz, and 50 GHz. These bandwidths are tuned to be within 3 dB at the stated frequencies using NIST traceable swept-sine test systems, offering flexibility for different signal integrity and compliance testing requirements.

What is the RMS noise of the electrical channels on the N1092C?

The electrical channel RMS noise varies by bandwidth setting: 275 uV at 20 GHz, 420 uV at 33 GHz, 450 uV at 40 GHz, and 500 uV at 50 GHz (all characteristic values). The maximum RMS noise across all bandwidths is specified at 700 uV, ensuring low-noise measurements for accurate signal analysis.

Can the N1092C measure both NRZ and PAM4 optical signals?

Yes, the N1092C can measure both NRZ and PAM4 optical signals. With Options LOJ, PLK, and IRC installed, it supports PAM4 measurements at 26 GBaud and 53 GBaud, in addition to standard NRZ measurements from 20.625 Gb/s through 32G Fibre Channel at 28.05 Gb/s.

What is the electrical channel input dynamic range of the N1092C?

The electrical channels on the N1092C offer an input dynamic range of plus or minus 400 mV relative to the channel offset, with a DC offset range of plus or minus 500 mV referenced to the center of the screen. The maximum input signal specification is plus or minus 2V (+16 dBm), providing adequate headroom for typical high-speed digital signal measurements.

What connector types are used on the N1092C?

The N1092C uses an FC connector for the optical channel input with 50/125 micrometer multimode fiber compatibility. The two electrical channels feature 2.4 mm (male) bulkhead connectors with 50 ohm nominal impedance, suitable for high-frequency measurements up to 50 GHz.

What is the calculated rise time of the N1092C electrical channels at 50 GHz?

At the 50 GHz bandwidth setting, the electrical channels have a calculated transition time (10% to 90% rise time) of 7.0 ps, derived from the formula TR = 0.35/BW. This fast rise time enables accurate characterization of very high-speed digital signals with sub-nanosecond edge transitions.

How does the N1092C handle timebase calibration?

Unlike legacy systems requiring service center calibration, the N1092C allows users to perform timebase calibration themselves, reducing cost of ownership and instrument downtime. The timebase offers a scale factor range from 100 fs/div to 100 us/div across ten divisions, with time interval resolution of (screen diameter)/(record length) or 50 fs, whichever is larger.
