Tektronix Logic Analyzer Probes

P6708 • P6716 • P6701SD

Features & Benefits

Mid-bus Probes

• 2.5 Gb/s and 5 Gb/s acquisition supports PCI Express 1.0 and PCI Express 2.0
• Connectorless Probing System Eliminates Need For On-board Connectors and Provides Robust Signal Connection

Solder-Down Probes

• 2.5 Gb/s and 5Gb/s acquisition supports PCI Express 1.0 and PCI Express 2.0
• No dedicated footprint required
• Uses the TriMode™ Long Reach Solder Tip (P75TLRST), which has a very small, low profile form factor that easily accesses tight dense circuitry
• Easily switch between the Logic Analyzer and Oscilloscope without the need to solder separate probe tips.

Applications

• PCI Express Validation for:
• Silicon Validation
• Computer System Validation
• Embedded System Debug and Validation

Breakthrough Probing Solutions for Serial Data Analysis

The P67xx Series probes provide validation engineers with two mid-bus probing options and one solder-down option. The P67xx mid-bus probes are the best choice for minimal system impact. The P67xx use a new “connectorless” retention mechanism that is designed to maximize mechanical reliability. Conserving circuit board space is critical, the P6708 8 channel half-width probe is an ideal choice for designs that use x1 and x4 links. The P6716 16 channel full-width probe is also available. The P6701SD enables customers to validate their PCI Express designs on platforms where no mid-bus or slot connector exists.
