3.5 Interposers and Probes
The Summit T24 works with Interposers and Probes. Some of them are listed below.
 Gen2 MidBus Probe: The Gen2 MidBus Probe is designed for use with the
Summit T24 Analyzer and supports lane widths from x1 to x4 at data rates of
2.5 GT/s (Gen1) or 5.0 GT/s (Gen2).
 Gen2 Multi‐lead Probe: The Gen2 Multi‐lead Probe is designed for use with the
Summit T24 Protocol Analyzer. The probe consists of 1 to 2 probe pods, which
are connected to the analyzer using straight x4 iPass cables (for x4). Each probe
pod supports up to 8 Flex Tips, with each Flex Tip connected via two coax cables.
 Gen2 Passive Slot Interposer: The Gen2 passive Slot Interposer is designed for
use with the Summit T24 Analyzer and supports lane widths from x1 to x4 at
data rates of 2.5 GT/s (Gen1) or 5.0 GT/s (Gen2). For lane widths up to x4, one
iPass straight cable is required.
 Gen2 Active Slot Interposer: The Gen2 Active Slot Interposer when used on the
Summit T24 will support lane widths from x1 to x4 at data rates of 2.5 GT/s
(Gen1) or 5.0 GT/s (Gen2).
