The Confidence of a BERT with the Insight of an Oscilloscope

The BERTScope™ Bit Error Rate Tester Series provides a new approach to signal integrity measurements of serial data systems. Perform bit error ratio detection more quickly, accurately, and thoroughly by bridging eye diagram analysis with BER pattern generation. The BERTScope™ Bit Error Rate Tester Series enables you to easily isolate problematic bit and pattern sequences, then analyze further with seven types of advanced error analysis that deliver unprecedented statistical measurement depth.
