Serial ATA
Serial ATA (SATA) interoperability is critical for successful disk drive storage system designs. Speed up the setup, measurement analysis, and 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 DPO/DSA70000B Series oscilloscopes for precise characterization, providing you with the amplitude and timing margin necessary for accurate and comprehensive device characterization.
