Fully Buffered DIMM (FBD) Memory Bus Probes Overview

FuturePlus Systems offers three products for the FBD memory system designer; their features are listed below. With these versatile products, designers can use their Agilent Technologies logic analyzer as a FBD memory bus analyzer. The FBD analysis probes, coupled with the powerful triggering and analysis capabilities of Agilent's state and timing analyzers, provide an extremely effective and efficient tool for debugging, testing and verifying products incorporating FBD memory systems.

Agilent Technologies offers several other FBD tools, as well.

• Raw Card B form factor
• Quick and easy connection between the FBD bus connector and Agilent logic analyzers
• Complete and accurate 800 MT/s state and timing analysis
• Provides functional integrity validation of addr/cmd and data
• Features embedded probing resistors to minimize stub loading from routing to logic analysis connectors.
• Straddle mount connector topology minimizes loading and allows probing of adjacent slots and system with limited vertical clearance.
• Supports all FBD DRAMs and AMB components
