Getting Started with the Agilent 81133A and 81134A  
Now that you have unpacked the instrument and plugged it in,  
let´s take a look at the main elements of the front panel.  
Softkeys  
Numeric Keys  
Global inputs  
and outputs  
Channel-specific  
inputs and outputs  
Navigation knob  
Tab Keys to navigate  
between the pages  
Switch on the instrument. You can immediately start playing with the settings.  
Start by pressing the tab keys. You see that only the lower part of the panel page  
changes. You can switch between five panel pages, which allow you to set  
parameters for different instrument settings.  
The parameters at the upper part of the panel page are valid for the whole instrument.  
Navigate through the pages with the Tab Keys

Changing Parameters  
The navigation knob makes it easy to move through  
and set the parameters.  
Rotate the navigation knob  
to move from one parameter  
to the next.  
Let’s select a parameter  
from a selection list.  
Press the navigation knob  
to open the selection list  
(like clicking  
with the mouse).  
Rotate the navigation knob  
to scroll through the list.  
Select an item by pressing  
the navigation knob.  
You have three options for using the navigation knob.

Changing Parameters  
Now let´s change a number field  
Press the navigation knob  
once to focus at the  
number field.  
Turn the navigation knob  
to set the number  
When you rotate the navigation knob  
the value changes. You can do this in run time.  
It let’s you immediately see the changes on a scope.  
Or, to change one digit  
Press the navigation knob  
once when you are done.  
Press and rotate the  
navigation knob to  
select the digit.  
You can also press the  
arrows next to the navigation knob.  
Release the navigation knob.  
Now when you rotate it,  
the number changes.  
Press the navigation knob  
once when you are done.  
You can also:  
Use the arrows next the  
navigation knob  
Enter a value  
with the key pad.  
to select a digit.

Setting Up a Data Pattern  
Imagine, you have designed a new digital circuit with ECL logic and  
3.3 GHz clock, and you want to check its correct behavior.  
To test it, you decide to simulate a 32-bit pattern signal with NRZ  
data output format:  
11110011100110010010100100000000  
Protect the DUT  
Whenever you change a parameter, the generated signal immediately changes.  
To protect your DUT, make sure you disconnect the channel outputs first.  
Do this by pressing the softkey next the following function:  
The open contactor shows you  
that your DUT is now disconnected  
Now let’s set the instrument parameters  
These define the signal that will be generated.

Setting Up a Data Pattern  
You can now set the channel mode, timing and  
level parameters for the channel

Setting Up a Data Pattern  
Reconnect the DUT  
When you are done, you can reconnect the DUT by clicking the following softkey:  
If you attach a scope (as DUT), you can immediately see the signal  
You can use the generator’s trigger output to trigger the scope.  
The LEDs tell you which  
outputs are enabled

Enable the Trigger Output ...  
... or press the  
Trigger Out softkey

Switch to Aux Page  
Now you can view the data pattern and the trigger output signal  
on your oscilloscope

What Else You Can Do  
The Agilent 81133A and 81134A Pulse/Pattern Generators are high-end,  
easy-to-use tools for generating pulses, patterns and data at speeds  
up to 3.35 MHz. They are ideal instruments for testing logic devices  
(for example, ECL, LVPECL, LVDS) and other digital devices with  
clock rates from 15 MHz to 3.35 GHz.  
You can use the Pulse/Pattern Generators for applications where timing and  
performance are critical and full control over signal jitter is required.  
The instruments are ideal data and pattern sources for eye diagram  
measurements.  
Your advantages are  
Fast rise times, low jitter  
and full parameter flexibility  
PRBS from 25-1 to 231-1  
When timing is critical, the 81133/34A’s  
fast rise times, the low jitter and full parameter  
flexibility make it an ideal pulse,  
You can evaluate the performance of a device  
in eye diagram measurements with PRBS  
from 25-1 to 231-1.  
clock and data source.  
Full signal manipulation  
You can add jitter to clock or data signals  
with the Delay Control Input and deform the  
eye with the Variable Crossover Point.  
Predefined Levels  
You can use the predefined levels  
to easily set up channels for commonly  
used logic families. These are:  
ECL, LVPECL, LVDS.  
Data can be 8 kB of pattern memory  
You can create large data patterns  
with 8 kB of pattern memory.

Requirements and Possibilities for Remote Control  
Using the Pulse Generator's Remote Control Interfaces  
You can integrate the Pulse Generator in your production environment.  
Its remote programming interfaces (USB, LAN, GPIB) allow you to set up  
extensive tests that involve several instruments.  
The accompanying Agilent I/O Libraries for instrument control must be  
installed on the controlling PC.  
It is possible that your Generator’s firmware is not set up for USB.  
USB functionality will be included in a later release of the firmware.  
Check the Agilent Web page for update information.  
For detailed information on how to connect the instrument  
physically to your external PC, and what you have to do to talk  
to the instrument, please refer to the Programming Guide  
delivered on the Product CD.
