3.7 Connecting PETrainer EML to the Device Under
Test

Figure 3.2

PETrainer EML (bottom left) connected to a Host Emulator adapter
(top) and a PETracer
EML Analyzer (right). The Host Emulator has a
PCI Express graphics card inserted.

PETrainer EML can test both the host and device sides of a PCI Express link through the
use of two types of adapter:

Motherboards and host controllers: Using a device emulator. A device
emulator is an adapter card that fits into motherboards and other slotted
PCI Express devices.

PCI Express add-on cards: Using a host emulation test fixture. A host
emulation test fixture is a box-like adapter with a slot for testing PCI Express
cards.

Both of these test devices can be purchased from LeCroy.
