Basically in my modeling, I oftentimes am interested in greater bandwidth than that required of the channel to pass most of the energy in the signal. Therefore I am typically dealing with much greater loss than a practical channel offers at the Nyquist frequency of the signal. To perform such measurements I have had to resort to increasing the power in the stimulus. I do agree that for many measurements the TDR has good enough dynamic range. >=20 > Jeff Loyer >=20 > -----Original Message----- > From: si-list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx=20 > [mailto:si-list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] > On Behalf Of Cavanna, Vicente Vaca (Sr. ; ProCurve ASICs) > Sent: Wednesday, April 25, 2007 12:03 PM > To: dmitry.a.smolyansky@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx; tom@xxxxxxxxxxxxx;=20 > homer.si.mpson66@xxxxxxxxx; si-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [SI-LIST] Re: TDR Analsis Equipment..Tektronix vs Agilent? >=20 > Dima, >=20 > You must admit that, if I make the line lossy enough, the=20 > through response (S21) will eventually be low enough as to be=20 > buried in noise. > If you cannot increase the energy in the stimulus you are=20 > stuck.
