The VME850 Analyzer / Exerciser
supports the latest VME bus specifications and protocols. From standard VME
transfers to 2eSST protocol. In addition to the VME bus, user defined
signals on the P0 and P2 connectors are also analyzed and exercised with
optional plug-in modules.
State and timing analysis
feature large high speed trace buffers and sophisticated triggering.
Transaction and waveform displays provide a clear view of captured bus
activity.
Measurements of system
performance include Bus Utilization, Transfer Rates and Statistics. As data
is acquired the Min, Max and Average values are updated and displayed in
graphical form.
Exerciser functions include
reading, writing, testing and comparing memory. Stimulus generation provides
the ability to simulate hardware, inject faults and modify timing as well as
drive any bus signal directly. A built-in backplane test checks for shorts
and the ability to drive every signal.
Anomaly detection of protocol
and timing violations automatically screen for violations to the bus
specification. Anomalies are included in the state display and trigger
specifications.
Our AnalyzeIt software package
provides an easy to use and intuitive GUI interface that operates under
Windows 9x, ME, NT and 2000. For custom application our API software enables
users to control the analyzer directly through C library calls. For
non-Windows users, a built in terminal interface is available.
