Figure 112 Start Timing of Analog Module after Receiving Trigger
If a test requires highly accurate synchronization between
the digital channel operation and an analog module oper-
ation, you need to decide the edge position of the trigger
signal that will be sent to the analog module, taking
account of the “Trigger-to-Signal Delay”, “Accuracy”, and
“Uncertainty” for the start timing of the analog module.
Therefore, you should consider whether the dispersion for
the start timing of the analog module such as shown in the
above figure has a strong influence on your test or not.
For the following three modules, if the same master clock
is used for the digital channel as trigger source and the
analog module, you can remove this uncertainty. See
“Synchronization Uncertainty” on page 254.
• High Speed AWG
• High Speed digitizer
• Dual High speed sampler
If the master clock used for the digital channel as trigger
source is different from that used for the analog module,
there is always
±1 master clock period of uncertainty.
