State & Timing Analyzer (PCI)
This mode of operation is not supported by the TA700PDC, TA800 or PCI-X.
To perform timing analysis for possible violation and to characterize Setup & Hold
limits on all or selected signals.
State Analyzer & Exerciser (PCI - PCI-X)
To perform Device compliance testing, characterize a PCI device by emulating
various bus cycles & terminations, injecting errors and generating traffics to measure
the PCI bus response. The exerciser may be used as a bus master to test and debug
new designs.
In Easy Mode the Capture and Trigger operates identically to that as in the State
Analyzer Only, except that the bus signals are generated by an exerciser program that
you define.
The Advanced Mode offers the same capabilities for analysis as the State Analyzer
Only except that as in the Easy Mode the bus signals are generated by a user defined
exerciser program.
Asynchronous Timing Analyzer (PCI)
This mode of operation is not supported by the TA700PDC, TA800 or PCI-X.
This option is used to perform high resolution sampling of the PCI bus signals using a
664 MHz asynchronous clock.
Additional Features
Performance Analysis
The TA700/800 provides continuous Real-Time performance analysis that operates
with Pre-defined or User-defined analysis files. On-board dual ported FIFOs interface
between the counters and the host system for transferring the measured data in real-
time without ever having to stop the counters. This feature provides a very complete
and accurate event count of up to 533 MB/Sec for TA700PCI (796 MB/Sec for TA700
PCI-X). 533 MB/Sec for TA800 PCI (1066 MB/Sec for TA800 PCI-X). An
implementation of eight counters with up to 32 bits allows a virtually unlimited count
of events.
