Publisher Description: The design and performance of a Next Generation Sampling Comparator Probe (NGSCP) is described. It is intended as one of a group of probes designed for use with the NIST Sampling Waveform Analyzer (SWA). The probe design is centered on an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) analog comparator featuring a bandwidth of 6 GHz. The design considerations of the ASIC analog comparator and the probe are discussed. The probe's performance features are compared against a previously designed ASIC probe. In addition to the design aspects of the probe, a thermal error correction technique is described which shows how high-speed settling performance can be enhanced. This technical note provides complete schematic diagrams of the ASIC comparator and the probe. |
