Serial ATA
Serial ATA (SATA) interoperability is critical for successful disk drive storage system designs. The number of required compliance tests for SATA Gen 2 is over 150. Speed up the setup and measurement reporting for SATA interop compliance testing with TekExpress - a one-button solution for PHY test automation and device-state control. When working with the next generation SATA 6 Gb/sec standard, rely on the DSA70000B Series oscilloscopes for precise characterization using the 5th Harmonic; providing you with the amplitude and timing margin necessary for accurate eye diagram analysis.
