Technical Details
The FS2001 PCI Passive Analysis Probe and Extender card provides two
functions:
1) Provides an electrical and mechanical interface to Agilent logic analyzers
for passive PCI bus monitoring.
2) Provides test points to measure the power and signal fidelity of the PCI
bus.
The PCI protocol-decode software executes in the Agilent logic analyzer. In
State Analysis mode, the analyzer master clock is the PCI clock. The
software decodes the key PCI bus signals and presents an easily-readable
display that lists the transaction type, address, data and key status conditions
such as wait states and retries. The software also supports user-defined symbols
that can be easily added to the state listing display. With the Agilent 16700A
and 16702A mainframes, the user can also select post-processing filters which
allow the acquired data to display only chosen transactions. To assist with
triggering, pre-defined resource terms are included and can be used
to prevent WAIT and IDLE states from being acquired, thus saving trace memory
and providing an easier-to-read state display.
An optional inverse assembler is also supplied called "PC Mapper". This inverse
assembler allows the user to display bus transactions in terms of common PC
accesses such as "video memory" or "RTC/CMOS RAM Data Port".
Cross-Domain Analysis
Are you analyzing data from multiple buses? Simply use this analysis probe
to monitor the PCI bus, and then use another FuturePlus Systems analysis probe
to monitor your other bus. We offer analysis probes for most popular buses.
You can create your own custom measurement system, cross-domain trigger between
buses, and view data from multiple buses simultaneously in the same display.
