Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a serial trigger circuit which does not need an expensive precision high-power circuit, design accuracy, high costs, and complicated software. SOLUTION: The position lock trigger apparatus employs oscilloscope circuitry and accompanying control software to provide to a user a capability to trigger an oscilloscope on a selected bit position in a received serial bit stream having a fixed pattern length, using either a synchronized, recovered, or external clock source. The selected trigger position can be moved forward or backward along the serial bit stream by one or more serial bit positions at a time in order to examine the entirety of the fixed pattern length serial bit stream, with or without regard to actual bit sequences occurring in the serial stream.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a circuit for masking blanking primitive. SOLUTION: A blanking primitive masking circuit includes a detection and handling circuit 206 that receives data containing blanking primitives. The detection and handling circuit 206 generates a dynamic blanking signal when blanking primitives are detected. A comparator 210 receives reference data 256 from the memory 208, the delayed data 222, and the dynamic blanking signal 260. The comparator 210 compares the reference data 256 with the delayed data 222, and generates bit error output signals from mismatched reference data 256 bits and delayed data 222 bits when the dynamic blanking signal from the detection and handling circuit 206 is absent. The bit error output signals are not generated when the blanking primitive is in the delay data 222 and the dynamic blanking signal is present. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve the performance and flexibility of serial data analysis. SOLUTION: In a transmitter section 10, a demultiplexer 12 inputs serial data and outputs n×N data lanes, an encoder 14 inputs these data lanes and generates m×N encoded data lanes, a circuit 16 inserts additional data into these encoded data lanes and generates m×N stuffed data lanes, and a multiplexer 18 inputs these stuffed data lanes and outputs N serial data lanes at a desired data rate. A receiver section 20 inputs N serial data lanes and outputs a trigger event for serial data. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method, a device, and a system for automatically identifying a synchronous sub-pattern related to a test pattern.SOLUTION: A test measuring apparatus is triggered in response to a first instance of a trigger pattern in a data stream. A trigger-to-trigger counter 525 starts counting with a first trigger event. The test measuring apparatus is triggered again in response to a second instance of the trigger pattern in the data stream, and the counter finishes counting. A count value is compared with a predetermined length of a test pattern and when both are equal to each other, the trigger pattern is automatically determined to be a unique synchronous sub-pattern related to the test pattern.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a test measurement instrument capable of detecting a bit error. SOLUTION: An input means 12 receives an input signal and outputs digitized data 14. A memory 18 accumulates digitized reference data containing a reference sequence. A pattern detector 16 detects the reference sequence from the digitized data 14 and generates a synchronization signal 20 correspondingly. The memory 18 outputs digitized reference data 22 in response to the synchronization signal by control of a memory controller 19. A comparator 24 compares the digitized reference data 22 from the memory with the digitized data 14. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
