Agilent 86108B Precision Waveform Analyzer Module (Pre-Owned)

Key Features At A Glance

  • Bandwidth options to 35 GHz (LBW) or 50 GHz (HBW) for high-speed electrical signal characterization
  • Ultra-low timebase residual jitter below 50 fs rms (typical) for accurate jitter analysis
  • Integrated hardware clock recovery with continuous data rate coverage from 50 Mb/s to 32 Gb/s (Option 232) or 16 Gb/s (Option 216)
  • Adjustable clock recovery loop bandwidth (15 kHz to 20 MHz) and peaking for compliant measurements
  • Auxiliary Clock Recovery Input enables analysis of closed eye diagrams and very low-level signals
  • Integrated calibrated pickoff tees and phase-matched cables for single-ended or differential signal connections
  • Plug-in module compatible with 86100C/D Infiniium DCA mainframes (FW Rev A.10.70 or later)
  • On-board phase detector enables jitter spectrum and PLL bandwidth/peaking characterization

Datasheets

The Agilent 86108B Precision Waveform Analyzer is a plug-in module designed for use with the 86100C/D Infiniium DCA family of oscilloscope mainframes. It is engineered for accurate characterization of high-speed electrical designs operating from 50 Mb/s to 32 Gb/s, providing a reference-grade measurement solution that combines wide-bandwidth sampling, integrated hardware clock recovery, and a precision timebase in a single module.

The 86108B is applied to jitter analysis, eye diagram measurement, and waveform characterization on high-speed electrical communication systems and components. Specific applications include reference clock and phase-locked loop (PLL) characterization — including loop bandwidth and jitter transfer measurements — and analysis of closed eye diagrams downstream of lossy backplanes through use of the Auxiliary Clock Recovery Input. The module supports PLL bandwidth and peaking measurements for designs including PCI Express (Gen 1/2/3) when used with a compatible jitter source.

Brand Heritage

Agilent Technologies was spun off from Hewlett-Packard in 1999, taking with it HP's test and measurement business. In 2014, Agilent further separated its electronic measurement division as Keysight Technologies, which now supports current production and service of instruments originally branded Agilent — including the 86108B module and the 86100C/D DCA mainframes with which it operates.

Important: Requires an Agilent 86100C or 86100D Infiniium DCA mainframe running firmware revision A.10.70 or later for operation.Important: The 86108B is a plug-in module and requires an Agilent 86100C/D Infiniium DCA mainframe (firmware revision A.10.70 or later) for operation; the mainframe is not included.Important: Bandwidth options are upgradable hardware options requiring return to an Agilent Service Center. Choose either Option LBW (35 GHz) or Option HBW (50 GHz).Important: Clock Recovery options are upgradable hardware options requiring return to an Agilent Service Center. Choose either Option 216 (to 16 Gb/s) or Option 232 (to 32 Gb/s).Important: PLL bandwidth/jitter transfer measurements require an external jitter source such as the Agilent N4903 JBERT, 81150, 81160, N5182A MXA, or a pattern generator/source with delay line or phase modulation inputs modulated with a 33250A function generator (not included).Recommended pairing: use the 86108B with the 86100C or 86100D Infiniium DCA mainframe per the datasheet's stated compatibility. For PLL bandwidth and jitter transfer measurements, the datasheet identifies the Agilent N4903 JBERT, 81150, 81160, or N5182A MXA as compatible jitter sources.
