The Keysight U4322A is a PCIe mid-bus probe that supports 2.5 GT/s, 5.0 GT/s and 8.0 GT/s speeds. The U4322A comes with Keysight's PCIe 3.0 analyzer uses Keysight's unique ESP (Equalization Snoop Probe) technology, with the ability to tune the equalization algorithm used according to the type of channel the analyzer is monitoring. This ensures that the data captured in the analyzer is exactly what is on the wire. Without this capability, at 8GT/s, there is a high likelihood of misrepresentation of the data on the bus, which can lead to wasted hours, if not days in the validation cycle.
Keysight (formerly Agilent) U4322A - Key Features & Specifications
- Supports 2.5 GT/s (Gen1), 5.0 GT/s (Gen2) and 8.0 GT/s (Gen3) speeds
- Uses the ESP (Equalizing Snoop Probe) technology to ensure accurate data recovery in all Gen3 platforms and all link width x1 through x16
- Micro spring-pin technology provides reliable contact to signal pads
- Spring loaded cover on the probe tip ensures sensitive pins are protected when not in use
- To reduce cost of test, ensures that only one type of probe is required for:
- X16 straight
- X16 swizzled X8 bi-directional
- Bi-furcation support (one link as 2 logical links)
- Independent reference clock per 4 lanes for maximum layout flexibility
