Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the FuturePlus Systems FS2343 FBDIMM Interposer Logic Analyzer Probe. We think you will find the FS2343, along with your Agilent Technologies Logic Analyzer, a valuable tool for helping to characterize and debug your FBDIMM- based systems. This Users Guide will provide the information you need to install, configure, and use the FBDIMM Interposer Probe. If you have any questions about this Guide or use of this probe, please contact FuturePlus Systems Corporation.

Probe Performance Limitation

The FS2343 Interposer probe is subject to the limitation inherent in probing the FBDIMM bus at 4 GHz and the extension of the high speed trace lengths of one FBDIMM slot by 65 mm. The probe is also dependent on the “logic analyzer interface” decode function of the Advanced Memory Buffer chip used as an interface between the FBDIMM High speed signals and the logic analyzer. If you have any questions please contact FuturePlus Systems.

Definitions

Logic Analyzer Modules

"Module" - A set of logic analyzer cards that have been configured (via cables connecting the cards) to operate as a single logic analyzer whose total available channels is the sum of the channels on each card. A trigger within a module can be specified using all of the channels of that module. Each module may be further broken up into "Machines”. A single module may not extend beyond a single 5 card 16900 frame.

Logic Analyzer Machine

"Machine" - A set of logic analyzer pods from a logic analyzer module grouped together to operate as a single state or timing analyzer.
