| Filters | Transition Time Converters from Picosecond Pulse Labs Ordering information:
Please note that 5915-100-xxx type filter has Female connectors (jack) on both input and output sides. One Male-Male (plug-plug) adapter will be needed for each TTC unit to be connected to DTG output or cable emulator unit directly. Unit with different shape of connectors Female-Male (jack-plug) is available by ordering as 5915-110-xxx, but will be less flexible in connection. |

1 Oscilloscopes with bandwidth less than 8 GHz will only support HDMI testing at limited resolution and clock/data rates.
2 16M per channel or greater record length is required for HDMI Compliance test.
3 If the Jitter Generator used is an AFG3102 or an AWG710B, then a single DTGM32 module is also required for use with either DTG model.
