What is the sampling waveform of an eye diagram
Typically, eye diagrams are composed of voltage/time samples of the original data, acquired at some sample rate that is orders of magnitude below the data rate. The eye diagram reflects that the digital signal is affected by the physical device and the channel. Engineer can quickly obtain the measured parameters of the signal in the product to be tested through the eye diagram, and can predict the problems that may occur in the field. For sampling oscilloscopes, this can be 105 samples per second at a 10 Gb/s (1010 bits/second) rate. PLTS constructs measurement-based eye diagrams (or patterns) by convolving the calculated time domain impulse response (generated from frequency domain measurement data) with a synthesized pattern of bit sequences.
