N5990A Datasheet, PDF (6/18 Pages) Agilent(Hewlett-Packard) – Test Automation Software Platform

Computer Bus Applications - PCI Express
CBB and CLB support
The configuration in Figure 6 tests multi-
lane add-in cards, using a graphics card
as an example. The DUT is plugged into a
Compliance Base Board (CBB) available
from the PCI-SIG®.
The CBB needs to be modified slightly
for use with the N5990A. Details are
available from Agilent. Agilent can also
provide details for system board tests
using a Compliance Load Board (CLB, also
available from the PCI-SIG).
