Agilent N4241A Midbus Probe 2.0 bi-directional x8 for PCIe 5Gb/s
The Agilent N4241A, N4242A and N4243A Soft touch probe increases the flexibility of the N5306A analyzer by enabling a direct connection from the probe to an embedded PCI Express bus on any system design.
With the N4241A soft touch probe for PCI Express, engineers are able to analyze the PCI Express bus communication without influencing the signals. The soft touch probe utilizes micro spring-pin technology to provide a reliable connection to the signal pads without the need for special cleaning or special surface finishes of the probe pads.
Different configurations of the probe are provided (both straight N4241A and swizzled N4242A) to deal with layout considerations on the board. A split probe (N4243A) is also available to monitor 2 x4 links from a single foot print.
