Delay Measurements of Moku Modules

Jeff, Torrey

We have performed pulse delay measurements on the various modules of a Moku Pro. This was done using two Moku Pros, the measuring Moku (Moku A) in oscilloscope mode, the measured Moku (Moku B) cycling through the modules. Moku A emits a pulse which is first detected by Moku A before traveling to Moku B where it is processed, and a response is emitted. The response is then measured on a second input of Moku A. See the diagram below. The delay was determined by measuring the distance between the half maxima of the rising edge of each pulse. A 10 ns width pulse was used for all the modules other than the slow path of the Laser Lock Box, which required a 1 microsecond pulse to get an easily measured response pulse. A slightly modified setup was tried where a compensating length of cable was insterted between the BNC T and the first input of Moku A. 

Module Short T delay (ns) Long T delay (ns)
BNC barrel  14 0
Digital Filter Box 1200 1190
Laser Lock Box fast path 604 600
Laser Lock Box slow path 5480 5443
PID Controller 527 511

The FIR filters change their delay based on the number of coefficents. The filter measured is a bandstop with the minum width notch at the maxium frequency, designed to be as close to an all-pass as possible. The "short T" was used

Coefficents Delay (ns)
3 859
39 1330
83 1890
145 2680
191 3280
231 3800
