Tektronix TLA7S16

The Tektronix TLA7S16 Serial Analyzer Modules offer an innovative approach to PCI Express validation that spans all layers of the protocol from the physical layer to the transaction layer.

The TLA7S16 also has an unmatched ability to capture and trigger on PHY layer events, on challenges that exist during link training or while the link is going into or out of power management states.

The Tektronix TLA7S16's serial analyzer acquisition capability is accompanied by analysis tools which provide protocol decode and error reporting capabilities. Hardware developers, hardware/software integrators and embedded system designers will appreciate the tight integration within the TLA7S16.

Correlation with other system buses or general-purpose debug signals uses the TLA common system timestamp. Obscure glitches that may have been propagated from other system buses can be efficiently debugged in a single environment by the Tektronix TLA7S16.
