Tektronix P6708 Overview
The P67xx Series probes provide validation engineers with two mid-bus probing options and one solder-down option. The P67xx mid-bus probes are the best choice for minimal system impact. The P67xx use a new “connectorless” retention mechanism that is designed to maximize mechanical reliability. Conserving circuit board space is critical, the P6708 8 channel half-width probe is an ideal choice for designs that use x1 and x4 links. The P6716 16 channel full-width probe is also available. The P6701SD enables customers to validate their PCI Express designs on platforms where no mid-bus or slot connector exists.
Mid-bus Probes
- 2.5 Gb/s and 5 Gb/s acquisition supports PCI Express 1.0 and PCI Express 2.0
- Connectorless Probing System Eliminates Need For On-board Connectors and Provides Robust Signal Connection
Solder-Down Probes
- 2.5 Gb/s and 5Gb/s acquisition supports PCI Express 1.0 and PCI Express 2.0
- No dedicated footprint required
- Uses the TriMode™ Long Reach Solder Tip (P75TLRST), which has a very small, low profile form factor that easily accesses tight dense circuitry
- Easily switch between the Logic Analyzer and Oscilloscope without the need to solder separate probe tips.
