LeCroy powers its oscilloscopes with a new PCI Express test capability

LeCroy's PCI Express Decode Annotation for LeCroy oscilloscopes provides new capability for hardware and system engineers to simultaneously understand the physical layer and protocol behavior of high-speed PCI Express serial data signals. The new capability provides a link layer protocol decode for up to four PCI Express signals annotated on the oscilloscope physical layer waveform.

LeCroy claims it is the first and only oscilloscope-based decode solution for the widely adopted PCI Express Gen 2.0 and the emerging PCI Express Gen 3.0 standards. Combined with LeCroy's 8b/10b decode annotation tool (a separate option), simultaneous symbol/primitive and protocol level understanding can be achieved. For faster time to insight, all the standard math, measure, cursor, zoom, and other analysis tools available in the oscilloscope may be used concurrently.
