• New stress elements for 5 GT/s receiver testing built in
• New transmitter measurements for one-button compliance ease
• The CRJ with PLA option – the most flexible clock recovery solution available, with jitter spectrum measurement to 90 MHz. The PLA option provides transmitter PLL characterization including loop bandwidth and peaking.
• All of the items needed to provide complete testing including:
  • A compliance baseboard suitable for 2.5 and 5.0 GT/s testing, pre-configured for using a high quality external 100MHz reference clock.
  • A PCIe compliance channel with the correct voltage ratio and return loss characteristics specified in the standard.
  • 2.5 GT/s automated transmitter compliance software
  • Cables, adapters and filters to allow testing even in the presence of spread spectrum clocking: SSC-matched cables, multi- to single-lane adapter, rise time limiting filter
