The Tektronix BSX125 BERTScope BSX-series Bit Error Rate Tester introduces a receiver test platform capable of supporting emerging Gen4 standards and beyond. With the addition of powerful data processing and internal Tx equalization, the BSX125 BERTScope supports protocol-based handshaking and synchronization with your device under test (DUT), including interactive link training at data rates up to 12.5 Gb/s. As part of the BSX-series, the BSX125shortens the time to debug physical layer and link training issues, and provides the quickest path to compliance for a broad range of standards.
Key features of the BSX125 include the following:
- Provides a single solution for Receiver stress testing, debug and compliance
- Test Gen3 and Gen4 standards including PCIe, SAS, and USB3.1 and proprietary standards
- DUT handshaking capability up to 32 Gb/s supporting RX test requirements for loopback initiation and adaptive link training for key standards such as PCIe and SAS
- Protocol-aware pattern generation and error detection supports flexible stimulus response programmability and debugging of handshaking issues
- Forward error correction (FEC) emulation option supports measurement of BER both before and after error correction for commonly used Reed-Solomon FEC codes
- Calibration and test automation software available for key standards
