Description

The Keysight M8053A interference source provides the bandwidth needed for 224 Gbps in data centers and future-generation testing for PCIe^®. It supports random-level interference and sinusoidal-level interference simultaneously for optical receiver stress tests. Features include the following:

• Common mode and differential mode sinusoidal interference (CMSI, DMSI), two-tone bandwidth adjustable up to 64 GHz
• Two channels with 64 GHz bandwidth and differential outputs
• Adjustable amplitude up to 1.25 V s.e.
• 2-slot AXIe module for combined configurations with M8050A high-performance BERT
• Graphical user interface and remote control via Keysight M8070B system software for M8000 series of BER test solution
• Coupler pair for injecting the interference signal into a differential pattern stream

The target application is a receiver test for devices with 1.6T data center applications, future generations of PCIe, and other high-speed digital interfaces.
