9. Press the Clock Polarity Neg Pos softkey to Neg.
This shifts the clock signal 180 degrees, so that the data starts during the negative clock transition. This
has the same affect as selecting the 180 degree phase adjustment.
10. Make the clock polarity selection that is required for the device being tested.
11. Press the
Return hardkey to return to the first-level softkey menu.
The clock source selection is also reflected in the first-level softkey menu graphic. For example, if the
device is the new clock source, you will see that the frequency reference is now connected to the DUT
and the DUT has an input clock line going to the N5102A module.
Selecting the Data Parameters
This procedure guides you through the data setup menu. Softkeys that have self-explanatory names are
generally not mentioned. For example, the
