High-Speed DDR3 Interposer Outfits Popular Logic Analyzers June 25, 2008
Heralded as the fastest DDR3 interposer for use with Tektronix TLA7000 series logic analyzers, the FS2355 DDR3 1333 interposer preprocessor for next-generation DDR SDRAM buses promises to enhance the debug of 1333 DIMM cards. The preprocessor provides state analysis and protocol decode at rates up to 1,333 Mega-transfers per second as well as timing analysis up to 50 GHz in DDR3 systems. According to the company, the interposer's low-profile design minimizes probe-induced effects on the bus. The FS2355 includes software that helps users to comprehend acquired data and enhances usability. Protocol-decode software interprets bus data and displays it in protocol, hexadecimal, or binary format; and auto-configuration files facilitate quick logic-analyzer setup. Including probe cables, price for the FS2355 is $48,250. FUTUREPLUS SYSTEMS CORP., Colorado Springs, CO. (719) 278-3540.
