    Figure 4-l shows an example of a 2 Bit PRWS generated on Channels 0 and 1 of a module. Each PRWS segment is a window int,o the continuously running hardware-generated PRBS. Not,e the “Phase-shift” of the PRBS on channel 1. Generating a Complete 223-1 PRWS The maximum PRWS segment-length of 131,072 bits is insufficient.

    Fixed-length Memory-based PRWS You can put a PRWS into the Preamble or Cycle part, of the data sequence. The data can then be edit.ed or manipulated like any other vect,or data. You can choose the PRBS polynomial used as a basis for the PRWS: The length of i.hc PRWS data is determined by the For Groups of 2, 4, 8 or 16 channels, l.hc PRHS...

    Fixed-length Memory-based PRBS with Zero Substition or You can put a PRBS with either Zero Substition or Fixed Marker Density int,o Preamble or Cycle part of any channel’s data sequence. choose the PRBS polynomial from the following list,: Basis PRBS DR.

    The zero-run can bc increased in length up to 2”- 1. The bit. after the last substituted zero is always set to ’ 1’. Example Polynomial Length Longest Zero-run 2’ Max. Substituted Zeros: Marker Density You can set the marker dcnsit.y (Ratio of ‘1 ‘s 1.0 ‘O’s) in the PRBS sequence using Pat,tern @GiZZKJ on the IEdit menu on the Data Listing page.

    Variable-length Random Data You can put. random PRBS data of any length into the Preamble or Cycle part. of the dat.a sequence. Use from the (Edit) menu on the Data Listing (Random Pattern) page. The PRBS polynomial is chosen automatically, depending on the length of dat~a (vect.or range) to be filled.
