2.5 PETrainer Exerciser
PETrainer™ is a Multi-lane PCI Express Exerciser designed to assist engineers in
improving reliability of their solutions and providing advanced capabilities for stress and
compliance testing.
• PETrainer EML™: 16-lane system
All PETrainer models operate as standalone Exercisers capable of generating and
responding to all types of PCI Express transactions. Both Exercisers also have the ability
to create protocol variations and anomalies. Users may also create corner case and
stress test scenarios to evaluate the robustness of their solutions. By utilizing the
PETrainer error injection feature, engineers can create worst-case PCI Express traffic
scenarios allowing them to validate the error handling capabilities of their solutions.
When PETrainer is used in conjunction with a PETracer Analyzer, a complete expert test
and analysis system is created. This integrated solution delivers traffic generation and
expert protocol analysis to assist developers with early validation of designs along with
error injection and stress testing in preparation for compliance testing.
