  • Patent number: 11923896
    Abstract: A test and measurement device has a connection to allow the test and measurement device to connect to an optical transceiver, one or more processors, configured to execute code that causes the one or more processors to: initially set operating parameters for the optical transceiver to average parameters, acquire a waveform from the optical transceiver, measure the acquired waveform and determine if operation of the transceiver passes or fails, send the waveform and the operating parameters to a machine learning system to obtain estimated parameters if the transceiver fails, adjust the operating parameters based upon the estimated parameters, and repeat the acquiring, measuring, sending, and adjusting as needed until the transceiver passes.

  • Publication number: 20220334180
    Abstract: A test and measurement system includes a clock recovery circuit configured to receive a signal from a device under test and to produce a pattern trigger signal, a flash array digitizer having an array of counters having rows and columns configured to store a waveform image representing the signal received from the device under test, a row selection circuit configured to select a row in the array of counters, and a ring counter circuit configured to receive a clock signal, select a column in the array of counters, produce end of row signals, and produce a fill complete signal upon all of the columns having been swept, the fill complete signal indicating completion of the waveform image, an equivalent time sweep logic circuit configured to receive the pattern trigger signal and the end of row signals from the ring counter and to produce the clock signal with a delay to increment a clock delay to the ring counter until the fill complete signal is received, and a machine learning system configured to receive the
