    摘要: The present invention provides a signal integrity measurement and apparatus which allows for signal characteristics to be measured by obtaining samples taken at the midpoint (3) of the data stream. The invention provides a measurement device (57; 83) that is suitable for use in the field to provide a measurement of signal characteristics within transmitted data streams. The invention is particularly suitable for field measurement of signal characteristics of data streams or continuous in-line monitoring of signal characteristics within transmitted data streams. The signal characteristics include, but are not limited to eye opening (21), jitter (23), noise (24), slope efficiency, average power and peak-to-peak amplitude.

    摘要: A receiver circuit includes an oscillator circuit (100) configured to generate a calibration tone (75) and a phase locked loop (PLL) reference signal (72). An output frequency of the VCO (172) may be divided by respective amounts to derive a desired calibration tone frequency and a desired PLL reference signal frequency. In addition to the oscillator circuit, the receiver circuit may further include a phase locked circuit (60) configured to generate a PLL output signal (61) that is phase locked in relation to the PLL reference signal (72). During a calibration mode, a quadrature generator (26) may be used to generate quadrature mixer local oscillator signals dependent upon the PLL output signal (61), and an in-phase/quadrature mixer (25) may be used to mix the calibration tone (65) with the quadrature mixer LO signals.

    摘要: Circuit and method for generating a signal for use in locking a second signal on a first signal. The first and second signals have an associated frequency. A first beat note signal (PD1) and a second beat note signal (PD2) are generated from the first and second signals, respectively, when the frequencies of the first and second signals are not equal. The circuit includes a first and second flip-flop and detector circuitry. The first flip-flop (502) is configured to receive the first and second beat note signals for generating a first state signal (S0). The first flip-flop (502) generates the first state signal (S0) by sampling the second beat note signal (PD1) at a first periodic interval of the first beat note signal. The second flip-flop (504) is configured to receive the first and second beat note signals for generating a second state signal (S1). The second flip-flop (504) generates the second state signal (S1) by sampling the second beat note signal at a second periodic interval of the first beat note signal (PD1). The detector circuitry (506, 508) is coupled to receive the first and second state signals from the first and second flip-flops for detecting a polarity of the frequency difference between the first and second signals. The polarity of the frequency difference is defined in a tri-state having a positive state, a negative state, and a zero state.

    摘要: A quadrature detecting apparatus is provided which is intended to prevent a demodulated output from being influenced by fluctuations in amplitudes of signals generated from angle-modulated signal sources such as a phase-modulated signal and a frequency-modulated signal, even if the amplitude of a driving voltage applied to a connection between the bases of a pair of transistors constituting a phase detecting device is made larger in order to enhance the demodulation sensitivity and reduce noises produced during demodulation. As an example of a resolution, the quadrature detecting apparatus comprises two coupling devices (D, E), two current dividing devices (F, G) coupled to generate a phase detecting output, a current dividing device (H, I) coupled to generate a re-mixed output, and a phase detecting device, wherein the outputs of the two coupling devices are connected to the two current driving devices driven by the same signal, so that the respective input and output terminals are at the same voltage level, whereby two outputs thereof are not influenced by fluctuations in amplitudes of angle-modulated signals supplied to the coupling devices.
