Interposers and Probes
The Summit T28 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 T28 Analyzer and supports lane widths from x1 to x8 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 T28 Protocol Analyzer. The probe consists of 1 to 2 probe pods, which
are connected to the analyzer using either iPass Y‐Cables (for x1 and x4) or
straight x4‐to‐x8 iPass cables (for x8). Each probe pod supports up to 8 Flex Tips,
with each Flex Tip connected via two coax cables.
Gen2 Active Slot Interposer: The Gen2 Active Slot Interposer is designed for use
with the Summit T28 Analyzer and supports lane widths from x1 to x8 at data
rates of 2.5 GT/s (Gen1) or 5.0 GT/s (Gen2). For lane widths up to x8, one iPass Y‐
cable is required.
