Abstract
A test and measurement instrument has an input to receive a signal under test having a repeating pattern. one or more analog-to-digital converters (ADC) to sample the signal under test at a sample rate over many repeating patterns to digitize the signal, one or more processors configured to execute code to cause the one or more processors to: recover a clock from the sampled signal under test, use the clock to generate an original pattern waveform, interpolate and resample from the original pattern waveform to generate an evenly time-spaced pattern waveform, apply an equalizer to the evenly time-spaced pattern waveform to produce an equalized pattern waveform, interpolate and resample from the equalized pattern waveform to produce a new waveform having equalized samples at sample times of the sampled signal under test, recover an updated clock from the new waveform, and use the updated clock to produce an updated waveform.
