N8825A/B Infiniium 10BASE-T / 100BASE-TX Ethernet Decoder

Data Sheet

Introduction

The N8825A/B 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ethernet decoder allows you to view Ethernet packet data transmitted between Ethernet devices on all Infiniium real-time oscilloscopes. Today’s Ethernet devices must be backward-compatible to Ethernet technologies such as 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX standards. The N8825A/B 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ethernet protocol decoder provides timecorrelated views of physical layer (raw data) and transaction layer packets. Unique packet-waveform correlation marker makes it easy to scroll through waveforms to view synchronized packet and symbol lists. Both IPv4 and IPv6 internet protocols are supported.

Extend your oscilloscope’s capability with Keysight’s Ethernet protocol decoder

The application makes it easy to debug and test Ethernet designs on your Infiniium Series oscilloscope. Debugging Ethernet signals is as simple as clicking the “Auto Setup” button and capturing Ethernet protocol data, and decoding packets can be done in less than 30 seconds. The “Auto Setup” button automatically configures the sample rate, memory depth, threshold and trigger levels.

The Ethernet decoder supports various display formats including label, 4B pairs (8-bit) and 5B pairs (10-bit) decode. Also supported are descramble and electrical idles. Perform and view decode information on both live and saved waveforms. Decode up to four live or saved waveforms or functions.

Ethernet Setup, Protocol Triggering and Search Capabilities

Get access to a rich set of integrated protocol-level triggers. The application includes a suite of configurable protocol-level trigger conditions specific to Ethernet. When protocol triggering is selected, the application uses software-based and hardware based triggering. With software-based protocol triggering, the oscilloscope takes signals acquired using the oscilloscope analog channels and reconstructs protocol frames after each acquisition. It then inspects these protocol frames against specified protocol-level trigger conditions and triggers when the condition is met.

10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX Ethernet Protocol Decode

Display bidirectional serial data from the transmitter (yellow) and receiver (green) at the same time with time-correlated data. Decoded packets are shown below the waveforms and in the decode listings windows.
