Agilent E1451A Pattern I/O Module

The E1451A is a high quality I/O module for pattern generation from Agilent. The instrument can send or receive data patterns. The maximum pattern rate offered by the Agilent E1541A Pattern I/O module is 20 MHz. The instrument makes use of an external clock to enable this capability and can also pass along the local BUS pattern clock to the next module. The E1451A is a C-sized and registered based I/O pattern module with a single slot.

The Agilent E1451A pattern I/O module comes with eight pin ports. These ports are identical. The user can independently program each port and transfer the data in a specified pattern. This pattern is usually 8-bits. It also offers the flexibility to map the programmed port to any of the outputs. The user can record the responses and carry out a real-time comparison of the data. The Agilent E1451A pattern I/O module has the capability to enable I/O in bi-direction by connecting pins of two or more I/O ports of the module. This enables the user to complete various testing requirements.

The Agilent E1451A pattern I/O module comes with a pattern depth of 64 K. It also allows the flexibility to segment it. The user can hold pattern and control bits for different scenarios. This model incorporates the programmable delay device for each port, which allows the user to eliminate skew errors. These errors occur due to variations in timing.
