M1 Waveform Tools vs Agilent EZJit/EZJIT-Plus

Product charting reveals how much more capable M1 ($995-$6495) is than either EZJit ($4000) or EZJit+ ($8000)...

  • M1 Waveform Tools is Agilent’s primary jitter solution for real time scopes.
  • M1 Oscilloscope Tools supports more Agilent scopes than EZJit does, and of course, more LeCroy, Tek and Yokogawa scopes.
  • You get some Rj/Dj capability by upgrading to EZJit+ ($4k additional). But it doesn’t do error calibration, does not calibrate instrument noise out, is not validated over a broad jitter space, cannot tell you when it has converged or diverged, and does not specify it’s typical error in detail as M1 Waveform Tools™ does.
  • Compliance tests are “extra” – $2000-$9000 each.
  • Eye-diagram and serial-data tools are extra – $3995 - $7995
  • Debug – extremely limited compared to M1 OT.
  • Automation – No ability to automate sequences of measurements or add measurements. M1 has ScriptBuilder, an intuitive graphical tool for clicking them together quickly.
  • Productivity – nope.
  • Product philosophy things – No scalable pricing, proprietary, not portable, fine-grained á-la-carte-ing (i.e. you pay for the sugar), and it costs more to own because of these things.
  • Portfolio – no offline analysis or no client/server (M1 Reader), no LabView.
  • Not shown here – Infiniscan ($5000) adds some additional but limited debug (2 limited and 1 unlimited cell in debug area).
  • Summary vs M1 Waveform Tools: EZJit/EZJIT+ costs more, does less
