PAM-4 Combiner Kit PSPL5380 Datasheet The PSPL5380 kit is part of the PatternPro PAM-4 multilevel source and measurement BERT system. Specifically, the 5380 works with the output from SDG pattern generators to create PAM-4 test signals. The PSPL5380 PAM-4 Kit utilizes Tektronix broadband components to combine two high-speed data streams. The PatternPro pattern generator instruments plus the PSPL5380 create a PAM-4 signal source that delivers programmable four level patterns, adjustable amplitude, and adjustable phase. The resulting precision control of the PAM-4 signal is critical to component and design validation testing to both investigate individual component performance and evaluate module level capabilities. Works with PatternPro SDG pattern generators to create PAM-4 signals Broad bandwidth with >50GHz components and 1.85mm cables Combines LSB and MSB streams to create four level data signals Simple to set up and use 25Gb/s and 32Gb/s signals from the PPG3202 PatternPro Programmable Pattern Generator combined into PAM-4 signals using the PSPL5380 PAM-4 kit.
