Interposers, Probes and Adapters for Teledyne LeCroy PCI Express® Systems
The Teledyne LeCroy PCI Express Product Line includes a wide variety of probe systems, A Wide designed to reliably capture serial data traffic while minimizing perturbations in the serial data Variety of stream. Probe systems include (a) interposers, designed to capture data traffic crossing a card- connector interface, (b) Mid-bus probes, designed to capture traffic flowing between components on Bus Probing the same PCB through a special pad designed into the PCB surface, and (c) Multi-lead probes, Options which can be attached directly to exposed traces on the PCB surface. Interposers are typically placed between the PCI Express expansion card and the PCI Express card slot on the motherboard. The interposer card plugs directly into the card slot, the expansion card plugs directly into the interposer, and a “tap” is provided for connection to the analyzer in order to capture traffic flowing through the connection. Specialty interposer probes are provided for connectors such as ExpressCard, ExpressModule, AMC and XMC Mezzanine Cards, VPX, Mini Card, CompactPCI Serial, HP Blade Server systems, SFF-8639 modules and M.2 modules. Interposers may be either passive or active: passive interposers simply pass through the PCI Express signals, while active interposers regenerate the signals to ensure reliable communication between the devices with the interposer in place. Mid-bus (both full- and half-size) connect directly to the PCB board through special “header” connections designed into the PCB, and multi-lead probes connect through multiple leads which are Mid-bus directly connected to PCI Express surface traces on the PCB. Probe In all cases, Teledyne LeCroy probing systems are designed to minimize perturbations of the electrical characteristics of the interface, so that test results with the probe in place replicate as closely as possible the system performance without the probe.
Generic Protocol Analyzer Summit Protocol Analyzer Systems Interconnect Diagram This diagram illustrates the three basic methods for introducing a protocol analyzer probe into a PCI Express system. The interposer solution, illustrated on the left side, introduces a card that is plugged into a standard PCI Express slot (or specialty slot), and then the PCI Express card under test is plugged into this interposer. Probe Pod The mid-bus probe solutions are designed for PCI Express data buses which are integrated Customer into a PCB, and allow the probe to tap PCIe Card into the signals through direct attachment via a header pad integrated into the PCB design. The multi-lead cable is connected to pins soldered to exposed Interposer traces to provide access Card to the PCI Express bus.
