WARNING
1. ALWAYS refer to the operation manual when working near locations
at which the alert mark shown on the left is attached. If the advice in
the operation manual is not followed there is a risk of personal injury
or reduced equipment performance. The alert mark shown on the
left may also be used with other marks and descriptions to indicate
other dangers.
2. IEC 61010 Standard
The IEC 61010 standard specifies four categories to ensure that an
instrument is used only at locations where it is safe to make
measurements. This instrument is designed for measurement
category I (CAT I). DO NOT use this instrument at locations
specified as category II, III, or IV as defined below.
Measurement category I (CAT I):
Secondary circuits of a device that is not directly connected to a
power outlet.
Measurement category II (CAT II):
Primary circuits of a device that is directly connected to a power outlet,
e.g., portable tools or home appliance.
Measurement category III (CAT III):
Primary circuits of a device (fixed equipment) to which power is
supplied directly from the distribution panel, and circuits running from
the distribution panel to power outlet.
Measurement category IV (CAT IV):
Building service-line entrance circuits, and circuits running from the
service-line entrance to the meter or primary circuit breaker
(distribution panel).
3. To ensure that the instrument is grounded, always use the supplied
3-pin power cord, and insert the plug into an outlet with a ground
terminal. If power is supplied without grounding the equipment,
there is a risk of receiving a severe or fatal electric shock.
For Safety

WARNING
4. This equipment cannot be repaired by the operator. DO NOT attempt
to remove the equipment covers or unit covers or to disassemble
internal components. Only qualified service personnel with a
knowledge of electrical fire and shock hazards should service this
equipment. There are high-voltage parts in this equipment presenting
a risk of severe injury or fatal electric shock to untrained personnel. In
addition, there is a risk of damage to precision components.
5. The performance-guarantee seal verifies the integrity of the equipment.
To ensure the continued integrity of the equipment, only Anritsu service
personnel, or service personnel of an Anritsu sales representative,
should break this seal to repair or calibrate the equipment. If the
performance-guarantee seal is broken by you or a third party, the
performance of the equipment cannot be guaranteed.
6. This equipment should always be positioned in the correct manner.
If the cabinet is turned on its side, etc., it will be unstable and may be
damaged if it falls over as a result of receiving a slight mechanical
shock.
Always set up the equipment in a position where the power switch
can be reached without difficulty.
7. DO NOT short the battery terminals and never attempt to
disassemble the battery or dispose of it in a fire. If the battery is
damaged by any of these actions, the battery fluid may leak. This
fluid is poisonous.
DO NOT touch the battery fluid, ingest it, or get in your eyes. If it is
accidentally ingested, spit it out immediately, rinse your mouth with
water and seek medical help. If it enters your eyes accidentally, do
not rub your eyes, rinse them with clean running water and seek
medical help. If the liquid gets on your skin or clothes, wash it off
carefully and thoroughly.

CAUTION
1. Always remove the mains power cable from the power outlet before
replacing blown fuses. There is a risk of electric shock if fuses are
replaced with the power cable connected. Always use new fuses of
the type and rating specified on the rear panel of the instrument.
There is a risk of fire if a fuse of a different rating is used.
T6.3A indicates a time-lag fuse.
2. Keep the power supply and cooling fan free of dust.
Clean the power inlet regularly. If dust accumulates around the
power pins, there is a risk of fire.
Keep the cooling fan clean so that the ventilation holes are not
obstructed. If the ventilation is obstructed, the cabinet may
overheat and catch fire.
3. Use two or more people to lift and move this equipment, or use a
trolley. There is a risk of back injury, if this equipment is lifted by one
person.

CAUTION
This equipment uses a Poly-carbomonofluoride lithium battery to backup
the memory. This battery must be replaced by service personnel when
it has reached the end of its useful life; contact the Anritsu sales section
or your nearest representative.
Note: The battery used in this equipment has a maximum useful life of
7 years. It should be replaced before this period has elapsed.
This equipment uses memory cards as external storage media for
storing data and programs.
If this media is mishandled or becomes faulty, important data may be lost.
To prevent this chance occurrence, all important data and programs
should be backed-up.
Anritsu will not be held responsible for lost data.
Pay careful attention to the following points.
Never remove the memory card from the pulse tester while it is being
accessed.
The memory card may be damaged by static electric charges.
The back-up battery in SRAM memory cards has a finite life.
Replace the battery periodically. For details, refer to the explanation
on the memory card later in this manual.
Do not place in a dusty area.
Clean the magnetic head periodically to ensure normal operation.
Refer to the section on cleaning the head later in this manual.

SECTION 1
GENERAL
1.1 Features
The MP1763C Pulse Pattern Generator has two data output channels (DATA and DATA) and three clock output channels
(CLOCK1, CLOCK1, CLOCK2). The MP1763C is used with the MP1764A/C Error Detector to test high-speed digital
communication systems and high-speed semiconductors. It operates over the 50 MHz to 12.5 GHz frequency range and
generates four pulse patterns: alternate, programmable, zero substitution, and pseudorandom. Programmable DATA pat-
tern can generate data up to 8 M bits and send six STM-64 (OC192) frames.
There are also seven 2
N
-1 (N=7, 9, 11, 15, 20, 23, 31) pseudorandom patterns. The pseudorandom pattern mark ratio can be
selected from among 0/8, 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 1/2, 3/4, 7/8, and 8/8. Both 50 GND and ECL outputs are supported. The offset
and level can be varied. The clock (CLOCK1, CLOCK1) delay can also be adjusted by ±500ps in 1ps steps.
