Product Description
The waveform monitors measure and display 4:2:2 component serial digital
signals. A waveform monitor displays serial digital signals as the familiar
component signals, as an Eye pattern, as digital data or in a variety of standard
measurement modes. Use the EDH (Error Detection and Handling) system and
the suite of automated checks of the serial digital format to verify data integrity.
Refer to Appendix A: Specifications for details of the waveform monitor
performance.
The waveform monitors offers the following features:
H Two 270 Mbit serial component loop-through inputs
