Solutions Focus on All Stages of PCI Express Architecture Design and Test Workflow



Highlights:


  • Keysight experts will demonstrate the latest PCI Express (PCIe®) design and test solutions


  • Featured solutions cover the entire PCIe workflow—from design to compliance


SANTA ROSA, Calif. – Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS) today announced it will exhibit its PCI Express® solutions at the PCI-SIG® Developers Conference 2016, Booth 4, Santa Clara Convention Center, June 28-29. Keysight will demonstrate more than 25 hardware and software solutions designed to help engineers address design and measurement challenges—today and into the future.



Keysight will feature the following solutions:


  • Complete transmitter and receiver test solution capabilities, including the M8020A J-BERT High-Performance BERT to address adjustable ISI and interactive link training for validation of 2.5, 5, 8 and 16 Gbps operation, and the Infiniium V-Series oscilloscope with electrical performance validation and compliance software for PCI Express architecture to provide fast and easy verification and debug


  • Advanced Design System (ADS) simulation elements to include the W2352EP compliance test bench for PCI Express technology to address simulation-measurement correlation challenges, together with ground-breaking EM simulation technologies for characterization of high-speed channels (W2360EP SIPro) and complex power plane designs (W2359EP PIPro)


  • The Keysight Digital Interconnect Reference Solution, a full 32-port vector network analyzer configured for high-speed testing of any linear passive interconnect, including cables, backplanes, connectors and PCBs


  • Hot TDR measurements, physical layer test system (PLTS) and protocol exerciser solutions for PCIe/NVMe technology


“Keysight Technologies has been a long time and active member of the PCI-SIG,” said Al Yanes, PCI-SIG president and chairman. “We are pleased that Keysight continues to develop new products that contribute to the enablement of PCI Express design and measurement solutions. Solutions such as these help provide the ecosystem with the necessary test coverage for validating interoperability of devices using PCIe technology.”



Also featured will be a Members Implementation Track session on Tuesday, June 28, at 10:30 a.m., titled “Correlating IBIS-AMI Models and JBERT Measurements”.
