STX M6-1 Protocol Analyzer
LeCroy also offers the STX M6-1 SAS/SATA Protocol Analyzer, a portable single-port system. The SAS analyzer software
performs serial bus analysis for Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) data transfers, as well as Serial ATA (SATA) data transfers
through STP data transfers. The SATA analyzer software performs serial bus analysis for Serial ATA (SATA) data transfers.
The analyzer can operate at 1.5, 3, or 6 Gb/s data rates and has 2 GB or 4 GB of recording memory.
The analyzer supports capture, triggering, and filtering of Serial Attached SCSI packets or Serial ATA packets. The
analyzer provides for bi-directional trigger and capture of commands, primitives, patterns and all bus conditions. You can
capture all frames and/or exclude traffic. You can trigger manually or trigger on a specific event.
The analyzer provides a full range of views and statistical reports. Statistical reports provide event and error counters, as
well as performance metrics, that give users a snapshot into capture.
Analyzer and InFusion
STX M6-1 Protocol Analyzer and InFusion can be used in tandem to combine simultaneous error injection and trace
capture/analysis capabilities.
