DPP125B De-Emphasis Signal Converter

The Tektronix DPP125B BERTScope is a nonlinear signal processor capable of adding regulated amounts of pre-emphasis to a signal. Receiving single-ended inputs of data and clock, the Tektronix DPP125B conditions the signal by adding calibrated amounts of pre-emphasis for use with Bit Error Rate Testers. This signal conditioner can function as a stand-alone instrument operated by a PC. It can be completely automated and owing to its compact size, the Tektronix DPP125B is designed to fit into a manufacturing setup.
Use the Tektronix DPP125B for the design characterization for high-speed, sophisticated designs, accreditation testing of serial data streams for industry standards and design/verification of high-speed I/O components and systems.
