1 BERTWave MP2110A
The all-in-one BERTWave MP2110A featuring simultaneous BER
measurement and Eye pattern analysis has been added to the
Anritsu BERTWave product line. Now, in addition to the
MP2100B covering bit rates up to 12.5 Gbit/s, the MP2110A
supports 25G-band measurements such as 100G Ethernet. The
design pays attention to cost, stable operation, and correlation
with other equipment, all of especial importance to customers
with manufacturing infrastructure centered on optical
transceivers. The MP2110A is the optimum solution for
production-line PHY layer evaluations.

3.2 Required Equipment
Table 2 lists the required instruments and peripheral equipment for starting the MP2110A.
6
3.3.2 Grounding
Plug the power cord into a grounded power outlet and the power inlet on the back
panel of the MP2110A. When connecting the power cord, be sure to use the 3-pin
accessory power cord so the MP2110A is correctly grounded.
Check that the grounding connector of accessories connected to the MP2110A, such
as the evaluation board, is securely connected to ground at the same potential as the
MP2110A.
To protect all equipment against damage from ESD, the demonstrator must also wear
a wrist strap connected to a grounded conductive mat or to the frame ground of the
MP2110A

3.7 MP2110A Setting Parameters
There are three MP2110A setting methods as follows:
Selection by button
Input using arrow keys
Direct numeric input
This section explains these setting methods using the BERT Bit Rate setting.
[1]
[2]
11
Selecting with Pointer
[2]
[1]
図 5-[1]: Since setting items are displayed as buttons, settings can be made by choosing the
setting from the selection.
[1]
[2]
Fig. 6-[1]: Press the button for switching the input method to toggle between input using the
arrow keys and direct numeric input.
Fig. 6-[2]: Use the arrow keys for numeric input. Press the left and right arrow keys to select
the numeric value to change and press the up and down arrow keys to change the value. This
is a convenient method when wanting to change settings gradually.
12
Direct Numeric Input
Fig. 7: Input the numeric values directly. Since values and units can be input directly, this
method is useful when making large changes.
3.8 Initializing
Initialization is performed to prevent measurement errors due to unintended settings.
[1]
Fig. 8-[1]: Press [System Menu] to display the menu and press [Initialize].

3.9 BERT Settings
This section explains the BERT settings listed in Table 1 required for evaluating the QSFP
transceiver.

3.9.1 PPG
Bitrate
Fig. 9-[1]: Press the Bit Rate selection button.
Fig. 10: Select 100GbE/4 25.78125G from the dialog.
Amplitude
Fig. 9-[2]: Set PPG Amplitude to 0.3 Vp-p.
Similarly, set the Amplitude for Ch2/Ch3/Ch4 to 0.3 Vp-p.
14
Test Pattern
Fig. 9-[3]: Press the Test Pattern selection button and set PPG to PRBS 2^31-1.
Ch Tracking
Fig. 9-[4]: The Ch Tracking setting can be used to synchronize the PPG Test Pattern
and ED Gating for all channels. The default setting is On.
3.9.2 ED
Data Input Condition
Fig. 9-[5]: Press [Electrical Single-Ended Data].
Similarly, select [Differential 50 Ohm] for Ch2/Ch3/Ch4.
Gating
Fig. 9-[6]: Set the Gating Cycle and measurement time. Select Single for the Gating
Cycle. Since a time of 38.79 seconds is required to measure 1E-12 at 25.78125 Gbit/s,
set a measurement time of 39 s.

3.10 Setting Sampling Oscilloscope
This section explains the Sampling Oscilloscope settings listed in Table 1 for evaluating the QSFP28
transceiver.

3.10.1 Setup
Basic settings such as measurement conditions and calibration are consolidated at the
[Setup] button.
Measurement Conditions
Fig. 11-[4]: Set the sampling mode at General. For Eye pattern evaluation, select Eye.
Fig. 11-[5]: Set Number of Samples/Limit Type. Since the number of samples is 1
million for 1UI, set Number of Samples to 1350, Accumulation Type to Limited, Limit
Type to Waveforms, and Waveforms to 1482.
16
3.10.2 Amplitude OE
Optical-interface and amplitude-axis related settings are consolidated by the
Amplitude OE button.
[2]
[3] [1]
[4]
17
Bessel Low-Pass Filter
Eye pattern evaluation is required for evaluating systems with an inserted Bessel
Low-Pass Filter. The MP2110A can be used to select the specified filter for each bit
rate.
Fig. 12-[4]: Press [Filter Selection].
Fig. 14: Select 100GbE/4 (25.78125G) from the dialog.
3.10.3 Time
Time-axis settings, such as Trigger, are consolidated at the [Time] button.
[1]
[2]
[3]
18
Trigger
Accurate Eye pattern monitoring requires input of accurate trigger signal information.
Like the MP2100B, the MP2110A has a Tracking function to simplify scope settings
when using a BERT + scope configuration, so promote this feature supporting easy,
mistake-free testing.
Data Clock Rate
Use the Tracking function to use the BERT Clock Output.
Fig. 15-[2]: Press the [Tracking] button.
Fig. 16: Select Bit Rate: PPG, and Divide Ratio: Clock Output.
Precision Trigger
Setting [Precision Trigger] to On reduces the sampling scope Intrinsic Jitter to 200 fs
rms.
Fig. 15-[3]: Press the [Precision Trigger] button.
19
3.10.4 Measure
The evaluation item settings are integrated at the [Measure] button.

Fig. 17-[1]: Press the [Measure] button to display the Setup Measure dialog.
Fig. 17-[2]: Select Ch B at Active Channel Selection as the target channel for
measurement.
Fig. 17-[3]: Select Amplitude/Time&Mask at Measure Item.
Fig. 17-[4]: Select Amp/Time.
Fig. 17-[5]: Select measurement parameters using the Item Selection [Add] button. (If
the [Add] button is not displayed, press the Delete button to erase the unwanted
item.)
Fig. 18: Since only up to four screens can be displayed on one screen at one time, first,
select Average Power (dBm), Extinction Ratio, Crossing, and Jitter P-P. Select Ch B as
the Active Channel.

3.11 Calibration and Aging (Warm-up)
Calibration and aging are required for accurate monitoring using a sampling oscilloscope. We
recommend at least 1 hour of aging (warm-up) after power-on. Table lists calibration items and
recommended calibration intervals.

Fig. 21 : Since confirmation is displayed when there is no signal input to the connector,
disconnect the front-panel Data In (A In), Data In (B In), and Trigger Clk In connectors
and press the [OK] button to execute calibration.
After completing calibration, reconnect the Data In (A In), Data In (B In), and Trigger
Clk In connectors.
[4]
To prevent unexpected optical output, set the shutter to ON when not in use to block any optical
output.
Fig. 22-[4]: Press the [∞]button so that the button LED is lit. The shutter is enabled to block
optical output while the LED is lit.
Fig. 22-[1]: The G0351F has a built-in power monitor. Consequently, the attenuator output power
[dBm] can be controlled. Press the [ATT/PWR] button until dBm is displayed on the screen.

4 Starting Measurement
Perform measurement after completing settings and calibration.
Fig. 23 : Set All Outputs to On to enable PPG output from all 4ch.

4.4 Drawing Waveforms
Fig. 24: Press [Auto Scale] so that the correct settings are applied to draw the center of the Eye
pattern at the screen center.

5 Evaluation
The MP2110A can perform BER measurement for four channels and evaluate the Eye patterns
simultaneously.
Fig. 26 : Set All Measurements to Start to start BER measurement for all four channels and draw the Eye
patterns.

5.2 Saving Eye Pattern Waveform
The measurement results and waveform data are saved as screenshots in .png format.
[1]
27
Fig. 27-[2]: The Time/Amplitude measurement results can only display four items on the GUI but
saving the measurement results permits confirmation of other results by overwriting the
displayed data without re-measurement. (See Fig. 17 for details.)
Fig. 27-[4]: Select remaining items from Item Selection and confirm the displayed measurement
results at Jitter (rms), Rise Time, and Fall Time.

6 Completing Measurement
The measurements listed in Table 1 are completed.
Fig. 22-[4]: Press the [∞] button so that the button LED lights and optical power output is blocked.
Block all optical output for the DUT transceiver using the QSFP28 evaluation board control PC.
Block all optical output for the reference transceiver using the QSFP28 evaluation board control PC.
Fig. 31-[1]: Set the PPG output to Off.
