System and method of measuring a signal propagation delay

摘要

The present invention relates generally to an improvement in the ability of test systems to test bit processing capacities of electronic devices, and in particular an improvement in their ability to measure a signal propagation delay through an object connected to an optoelectronic device. The present invention includes determining for how long after a specific bit or bit group is transmitted by an optical transceiver the bit or bit group is received at the other end of the object connected to the optical transceiver.
