10.1 Probing PCI-X Signals
To ease the probing and debugging of the PCI-X signals, you are recommended to passively probe
the PCI-X bus signals with a logic analyzer. This can be done by placing six AMP* Mictor-38
connectors on the board or by probing the bus with an interposer card such as the
FuturePlus* Systems* FS2007 that works with an Agilent Technologies* logic analyzer.
For ease of debugging the pinout of the AMP* Mictor-38 connectors, the recommended pin-out
matches the FuturePlus* Systems* configuration setup, which allows ease of viewing the PCI
signals on an Agilent Technologies* logic analyzer. Refer to the following test equipment that is
used for this analysis:
• Two AMP* 2-767004-2 surface-mount connectors mounted on the target board and routed to
the PCI-X local bus
• Two Agilent Technologies* E5346A or E5351A high-density adapter cables from
FuturePlus* Systems or Agilent Technologies
• Four logic analyzer PODS
• FS1104 software from FuturePlus* Systems
Equivalent analyzers can be substituted. A FuturePlus* Systems* configuration file with the
FS1104 product that matches the pinout is listed in Table 23 through Table 28.
