Keysight / Agilent E2960B Overview

The E2960B Series is the industry’s most
complete and integrated test system with
x1 through x16 protocol analyzer, exerciser,
compliance test packages and an array of
probing solutions to meet test needs.

• The non-intrusive analyzer provides an
  authentic system view with genuine and
  unaltered signal characteristics.
• The exerciser provides thorough
  testing of the link from x1 to x16, with
  an automated LTSSM exerciser and
  predefined compliance test to expedite
  test cycles.
• The protocol to logic gateway (P2L
  gateway) for correlation with the Agilent
  logic analyzers, enabling broad visibility
  into all parts of the system.
• Integrated solution for stimulus
  (exerciser) and response (analyzer)
  enables detailed observation and full
  understanding of the DUT’s behavior.

These capabilities provide our customers
with the fastest time to insight. Leaving
more time for design debug, and bringing
products to market quickly.

Features:

• Reliable traffic capture and analysis.
• Fastest lock times in the industry, 11 FTS typical, for effective active state power management (ASPM) testing.
• Easy flow and context sensitive display for clear protocol viewing.
• Sophisticated triggering, search, and filtering capabilities.
• Includes unique logic capabilities such as lane view, fast ASPM sync time, and trigger on ordered set.
• Comprehensive probing capabilities, including Mid-bus 2.0, Flying Lead 2.0 and slot interposer probes.
• Unique LTSSM testing using pre-configured tests.
• Generate and respond to sequence with error insertion capabilities.
• PTC 2.0, compliance tests for PCI Express Gen1 and Gen2 on the same test card.
• Upgradable hardware model, can be used for PTC 2.0 or upgraded to the compliance assured test package with 180 additional tests, or to full exerciser capabilities.
• Cross triggering between logic analyzer and protocol analyzer.
• Ping-pong triggering with flags is supported.
• Strong integration between exerciser and analyzer allows the analyzer to capture only the key segments of the device behavior.
• Replay traffic in the exerciser recorded with the protocol analyzer.
• Consistent use model between both stimulus and response to minimize learning curve.
