General Information

This chapter provides additional reference information including the characteristics and signal connections for the FS2331 DDR Analysis Probe. The following operating characteristics are not specifications, but are typical operating characteristics for the HyperTransport Analysis Probe.

Probe Interface design capability

The FS2331 is designed to connect to a 184 pin DDR DIMM connector.

Standards supported

The FS2331 is designed to operate with PC1600, PC200, and PC2700 DDR DIMM standards for both buffered and unbuffered DIMM modules.

Power requirements

The probe requires approximately 3 amps of 3.3V. This is supplied by a dedicated AC to DC converter. Ground connections are provided through both the logic analyzer and the DIMM bus.

Logic Analyzer Requirements

The Agilent 16700 logic analyzer frame is required running software version 2.70 or higher. Several different logic analyzer cards can be used with the FS2331 depending on the DIMM bus speed being probed. See this User Manual for details.

Minimum Clock Period

The FS2331 is designed to be used at PC1600, PC2100, and PC2700 DIMM speeds. Operation at speeds higher than that may vary.

Signal Loading

The FS2331 is design to emulate the signal loading of a PC2700 Registered DIMM per the Rev. C raw card. Ref. JEDEC PC2700 Design spec. for more information.

Environmental Operating Limits

Temperature - Operating: +20° to +30° C (+68° to +86°F)

Non-operating: -40°to +75° C (-40°to +167° F)

Altitude

- Operating: 4,6000m (15,000 ft)

 

Non-operating: 15,3000m (50,000 ft)

Humidity

Up to 90% non-condensing. Avoid sudden, extreme temperature

changes that would cause condensation on the FS2331.

Servicing

If a failure is suspected in the FS2331 contact the factory or your FuturePlus Systems authorized distributor. The repair strategy is for the product to be returned to the factory upon factory approval.
