Chapter 1: Overview
Designed for developers and validators, the Teledyne LeCroy PETracer Summit™ and
Summit T2-16™ are Gen1/Gen2 PCI Express advanced verification systems.
By leveraging years of experience in protocol analysis tools for emerging markets,
PETracer Summit and Summit T2-16 blend sophisticated functionality with practical
features to speed the development of PCI Express™ IP cores, semiconductors, bridges,
switches, add-in boards, and systems.
1.1 PETracer Analyzer Hardware and Software
Features and Benefits
PETracer Summit and Summit T2-16 Analyzers have these features and benefits:
Features Benefits
Powerful and Intuitive
CATC Trace™ Analysis Software Faster interpretation and debug of PCI Express traffic with
color-coded, clearly labeled protocol elements in a graphical
display. Reduces coding and deciphering.
Extensive Decoding Complete, accurate and reliable decoding of TLPs (Transaction
Layer Packets), DLLPs (Data Link Layer Packets), and all
PCI Express Primitives
Monitoring and Link Utilization View link utilization and other performance measurements
changing in real time.
Advanced Triggering Isolate important traffic, specific errors, or data patterns. Trigger
condition setup is made simple with drag and drop tools to link
events to trigger or filter actions.
Hardware Filtering
Analyze faster and understand transactions more clearly by
removing non-essential fields from the trace.
Intelligent Reporting
Quickly identify and track error rates and abnormal link or timing
conditions. Display configuration space and protocol specification
details.
Sophisticated Viewing View Packet, Link and Split Transaction levels of the PCI Express
protocol. Collapsible/expandable headers with Tool tip
explanations make it easy to navigate and interpret packet
contents, headers, and commands. View packets, transactions of
TLPs and DLLPs in classic CATC Trace™ format or in raw 10b
code for deeper analysis.
8 GB Recording Capacity, 
4 GB in each direction
Capture long recording sessions for analysis and problem solving
