Product Overview

RENT TEKTRONIX CR286A Clock Recovery Module (Call for Availability)

The BERTScope Clock Recovery CR286A advanced architecture measures and displays the PLL frequency response from 100 kHz to 12 MHz; the highest loop bandwidth available for jitter testing jitter testing on the market today. The first clock recovery instruments to allow full control of parameters including loop bandwidth, peaking/damping, and roll off. When the loop bandwidth setting is wide, jitter is transferred to the recovered clock, emulating a clock signal similar to the CDR of the receiver under test. 

The BERTScope CR286A is designed to support emerging high-speed standards such as 100 Gb Ethernet (100 GbE), which operates at a line rate of 25.78125 Gb/s. The CR286A goes a step further with a maximum data rate of 28.6 Gb/s to support OIF-CEI 28G. The CR286A with Option HS includes the same features as the CR models, but with higher input sensitivity for applications involving small signals down to 40 mV (single ended) or 20 mV (differential). This is achieved by removing the power tap-offs from the instrument, allowing the user to access the full sensitivity range. The HS option is ideal for optical applications, where small amplitude signals are common, or for electrical test setups where the extra sensitivity is critical.
