The SV1C Personalized SerDes Tester is an ultra-portable, high-performance instrument that creates a new category of tool for high-speed digital product engineering teams. The instrument fits in one hand and contains 8 independent stimulus generation ports, 8 independent capture and measurement ports, and offers world-class signal-integrity features such as jitter injection and jitter measurement.
The SV1C has been designed specifically to address the growing need of a parallel, system-oriented test methodology to enable the test and measurement of complex SerDes interfaces such as PCI Express Gen 3, DisplayPort, Thunderbolt, or MIPI M-PHY. Powered by Introspect’s award-winning software environment, Pinetree, this tool enables product engineers with widely varying skill sets to efficiently work with and develop SerDes verification algorithms.
