The two key banner specifications than affect an oscilloscope's signal integrity measurement accuracy are bandwidth and sample rate. Most engineers have a good idea of how much bandwidth they need for their digital measurements. However, there is often a lot confusion about required sample rates--and engineers often assume that scopes with the highest sample rates produce the most accurate digital measurements. But is this true? When you select an oscilloscope for accurate, high-speed digital measurements, sampling fidelity can often be more important than maximum sample rate. Using side-by-side measurements on oscilloscopes with various bandwidths and sample rates, this application note demonstrates a counterintuitive concept: scopes with higher sample rates can exhibit poorer signal fidelity because of poorly aligned interleaved analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). This application note also will show how to easily characterize and compare scope ADC sampling fidelity using both time-domain and frequencydomain analysis techniques. Let's begin with a discussion of minimum required sample rate and a review of Nyquist's sampling theorem.
