16GFC
Testing 16GFC devices requires equipment capable of 14.025 Gb/s. Used in the storage,
computing, and communications industries, 16GFC devices must be accurately character-
ized to strict tolerances.
A basic configuration using the
17 Gb/s BERT system is shown above. N4951A-P17 (or N4951B-H17/-D17) and
N4952A-E17 can be loaded with common stress patterns for 16GFC. You can also custom
design your own patterns up to 8 Mb in length and upload them into the N4960A serial
BERT.
