PCI Express Gen 3 Test Backplane
The PCI Express Gen 3 Test Backplane was designed to support production testing and debugging modern PCI express boards. This backplane expands the Host computer’s PCI Express, MiniPCI Express, or ExpressCard® interface into four x16 PCI Express Gen 3 slots via 10 ft. CAT7 cable and 10-pins flat Power Control cable. It supports testing PCI Express board Gen 1, Gen 2, and Gen3 and testing PCI express boards based on bifurcation. The backplane supports UUT hot-swap and has per-slot overcurrent protection.
The PCI Express Gen 1 Test Backplane was designed to support production testing/debugging of PCIe-based peripheral boards. The backplane expands the Host computer’s x1 PCI Express or ExpressCard® interface into one x4 and three x1 PCI Express slots via a 7 ft CAT6 cable. The PCI Express backplane is a versatile platform that allows you to test up to 4 PCI Express boards simultaneously, facilitates easy access to logic signals, provides hot-swap compatibility and per-slot overcurrent protection. The backplane provides access to the PCIe-bus JTAG signals, thus acting as a universal device for FPGA/CPLD programming/loading during production and testing
The Multi-Interface Test Backplane was designed to support hardware and software designers who need to plug products with different interfaces (into the host computer). This backplane expands the x1 PCI Express or ExpressCard® interface (of a desktop/laptop) into x16 PCI Express (4 lanes), 32-bit PCI, MiniPCI, MiniPCIe, and ExpressCard® interfaces via a 7 ft CAT6 cable. Having all these interfaces located on a single backplane allows designers to keep the host system unchanged during debugging.
The 32-bit PCI Test Backplane was designed to support production testing/debugging of PCI-based peripheral boards. The backplane expands the x1 PCI Express or ExpressCard® interface of the host computer into four 32-bit PCI slots via 7 ft CAT6 cable. The PCI backplane is a versatile platform that allows you to test up to 4 PCI boards simultaneously, facilitates easy access to logic signals, provides hot-swap compatibility and per-slot overcurrent protection.
The MiniPCI Express Gen 2 Test Backplane was designed to support production testing and debugging different kind of MiniPCI express boards. This backplane expands the Host computer’s PCI Express, MiniPCI Express, or ExpressCard® interface into seven MiniPCI Express Gen 2 slots via 5 or 10 ft. CAT7 cable and 10-pins flat Power Control cable.
