SATA-IIHigh-Performance Serial ATA Probing Support
For Use With Tektronix® TLA5xxx/6xx/7xx/7xxx Logic Analyzers
Features• Serial ATA II, Serial ATA 1.0 and ATA/ATAPI 6
compliance
• 1.5 Gb/s Gen1 and 3.0 Gb/s Gen2 bus signaling rates
supported
• Supports SATA compliance frame error rate (FER) measurements
without use of a logic analyzer
• Acquisition of spread-spectrum-clocked data streams
supported
• Monitors, triggers on, acquires and displays all aspects of
Serial ATA signaling, including bus signal level
(squelch),out-of-band (OOB) signaling, primitives, FIS frames,
encoding and protocol errors (including independent
CRCverification), bus utilization and error statistics
• Optional acquisition of undecoded (10b) data or unscrambled
Data FIS contents
• Optional timing waveform display of bus signal level (squelch)
behavior
• Testpoints allow bus signal level (squelch) behavior to be
monitored
• Efficient use of acquisition memory achieved through optional
compressed storage of repeated primitives
• Trailing portions of lengthy FIS Data frames can be optionally
suppressed
• Works with Tektronix® TLA5xxx/6xx/7xx/7xxx logic analyzers
having 136 channels and 75 MHz acquisition capability(150 MHz
acquisition capability recommended); supports use of Mictor® or
compression probes (with adapters)
• USB port on analyzer or host computer provides probe adapter
configuration and control
• Listing window hierarchical display shows optionally-acquired
undecoded/unscrambled data, primitives, FIS frames anddevice
command protocol
