7 Analog Modules Time Interval Analyzer
240 System Reference, January 2001
• Routes one or two input pins among seven input pins to
the TIA instrument. For single channel measruement
(PW, PER, FREQ), only CH1 is routed to a pin. CH2 is
only routed to a pin for dual channel measruement
(PD).
If two TIA instruments are connected with the front-
end module, the center block can route one or two
input pins to one TIA instrument and another one or
two input pins to the other TIA instrument.
• Compensate the skew between the input pins and
between the input pin and the trigger pin.
Because the length of the routes inside the front-end
module are different depending on the input pins and
trigger pins, the skew happens between the input pins
and between the input pin and the trigger pin. The
programmable delay in the center block compensates
the skew.
• Comparator for the trigger (arming signal) input
The input impedance of the trigger is 50 ohm. The
threshold level of the comparator of the trigger pin is
fixed to 0.0 V. The level of the trigger (arming) signal
must be within -1.5 V to +2.5 V (@50 ohm termination).
Output Block
The output block outputs the signals and trigger signals
with 50 ohm impedance to the TIA instruments.
TIA Instrument
The following is the simplified block diagram of the TIA
instrument.
