Key features

  • Tektronix USB4 Compliance and Debug solution provide a comprehensive toolset for the USB4™ Gen2 (10 Gbps) and Gen3 (20 Gbps) verification, characterization, debug, and compliance testing.
  • Tektronix USB4 solution2 is compliant with the USB4™ Specification Ver1.0 and USB4™ Router Assembly Electrical Compliance Test Specification Rev 1.0.
  • Tektronix DPOJET-USB4 Plug-in solution with setup files and MOI assists the root cause analysis.
  • Tektronix USB4 solution supports the SigTest (USB-IF Analysis Tool).
  • Tektronix USB4 solution supports the Wilder Technologies USB4 Controller and USB4 Electrical Test Tool (ETT).
  • Tektronix Serial Data Link Analysis (SDLA) tool supports the De-embedding, Embedding, Equalization (CTLE+DFE), and Custom Channel Characterization.
  • The TekExpress USB4 Signal Validation feature validates the compliance pattern to ensure the accuracy of the results.
  • The TekExpress USB4 Pre-Recorded Mode supports the offline analysis and baseline for future specification changes.
  • The TekExpress USB4 Automatic DUT Control mode captures all the compliance test patterns. So the USB4 Transmitter testing completes without user intervention.
  • Tektronix USB4 Automatic DUT Control supports both USB4 Discrete and Integrated (SoC) products.
  • Complete both Lane 0 and Lane 1 Transmitter test without flipping the USB Type-C® connector or USB4 High-Speed fixture.
  • Quickly validate test results with comprehensive reporting that details test margins, pass/fail results, and plots in PDF, MHT, and CSV formats.
