You can measure the average power of an eye diagram. However, it differs from other measurements because it. Analyzing an eye diagram is a crucial aspect of signal integrity testing in high-speed serial interfaces like M-PHY. The eye diagram's open eye pattern indicates less signal. Several system performance measurements can be derived by analyzing the display. If the signals are too long, too short, poorly synchronized with the system clock, too high, too low, too noisy, or too slow to change, or have too much undershoot or overshoot, this can be observed from the eye. This instrument class measures samples of the input signal to form an eye diagram that can be used for analysis of the signal's noise, jitter, and eye mask compliance. The ability to accumulate and display samples supports statistical analysis techniques for assessing the quality of the digital.
