Applications

Automated Pass/Fail Testing

Validating signal quality is an important part of any embedded system design. One way to determine how well your signals conform to expected signal quality is to use mask testing. A mask defines a portion, or portions, of the oscilloscope display that a signal must not enter.

The Limit Test Application Software (Option LT) makes it easier to validate how your signals are performing compared to a known good condition.

The Mask Test Application Software (Options MTH and MTM) enables testing against a well-defined telecommunication or computer standard providing automated statistical analysis of signal quality.

Option LT – Limit Test Application Software

A common method for understanding your signal quality is to compare against a known good or “golden” waveform. You can apply horizontal and vertical tolerances to the golden waveform to create a template that can be used for quick, accurate Pass/Fail testing. This method is also a great way to perform go/no-go testing on a manufacturing line by enabling repeatable, fast decisions on the quality of a component or system. The Limit Test Application Software allows you to save your limit test template for use later across multiple oscilloscopes in a lab or on a production line.

The Limit Test Application Software will highlight any waveform samples that fall outside of the limit test template, providing you with quick visual evidence of a failure.

OptionLTMTHMTMLimitandMaskTestApplicationSoftware-2-N

Limit test finds infrequent glitches and runt signals using a mask created by adding vertical and horizontal tolerances around a golden waveform. Test your signals against a golden waveform and quickly gain insight into anomalous behavior.

When a test failure is detected, the oscilloscope can perform a number of actions in parallel. These actions include stopping the acquisition, e-mailing a message indicating the test has failed, saving a waveform to a file, logging the date and time to a file, printing the waveform, and sending a GPIB SRQ command.

Option MTH, MTM – Mask Test Application Software

OptionLTMTHMTMLimitandMaskTestApplicationSoftware-3-N

OC12 (622.5 Mb/s) standard mask showing results from a mask test. A robust set of telecommunications and computer industry standard masks make testing to standards quick and accurate.

When it is necessary to measure performance of your signals against telecommunications or computer standards to verify compliance and interoperability, the Mask Test Application Software, with more than 100 standard masks, makes it easy. Each standard mask is easily loaded from the oscilloscope internal memory and can be immediately used to conduct Pass/Fail testing. Adherence to a standard mask is determined pixel-by-pixel throughout the display.

When a standard mask is loaded, the oscilloscope makes use of the integrated Communication Trigger. Each standard mask is associated with a communication standard and the mask you select automatically determines which communication trigger is used. Some models include integrated clock recovery circuitry up to 6 Gb/s for NRZ eye patterns. Clock recovery allows you to perform more reliable and accurate mask testing.

The oscilloscope can reduce setup time for making a mask test measurement by performing an Autoset for vertical, horizontal, and trigger parameters on the source signal. Additionally, to reduce the chance of failures, the oscilloscope can Autofit the waveform to the mask to minimize hits within the mask. It can do this a single time following an Autoset or it can perform an Autofit after every triggered acquisition.

OptionLTMTHMTMLimitandMaskTestApplicationSoftware-4-N

The Mask Test Application Software enables multiple actions upon a test failure or the completion of a test, tailoring the test to your specific needs.

The Mask Test Application Software provides flexible test definitions enabling you to tailor the test to your needs. You can run a test for a user-defined number of waveforms (up to 2.14×10⁹). The Repeat Test and Pretest Delay capability enables swapping of test locations before proceeding with a test over multiple cycles of the test. You can set the number of violations that can occur before a test status is considered failed. The oscilloscope can also perform a number of actions when a test fails or completes. Actions the oscilloscope can perform when a test fails include stopping the acquisition, e-mailing a message indicating the test has failed, saving a waveform to file, logging the date and time of the failure, printing a waveform, sending a GPIB SRQ, and sending a trigger out pulse. Actions the oscilloscope can perform when a test completes include sending a GPIB SRQ and sending a trigger out pulse.

OptionLTMTHMTMLimitandMaskTestApplicationSoftware-5-N

Detailed mask test results show statistical information for the test. The results include information on test sample size, failures, total number of hits, and the number of hits in each mask segment.

The Mask Test Application Software provides statistical results from each test conducted. The results include Pass/Fail status of the test, number of waveforms/samples tested, number of violations found, and the total number of hits within the mask. A secondary display shows the total number of hits in each segment of the mask providing further insight into any mask violations.
