Driven by demands from AI, high-performance computing, and fast storage, PCIe has evolved to its sixth generation, offering speeds up to 64 GT/s with PAM4 modulation. While this doubles bandwidth, it also brings challenges in signal integrity and debugging. SerialTek has launched a PCIe 6.0 protocol analyzer designed to address these complexities.

Featuring proprietary SI-Fi technology, the analyzer supports high-speed data capture, real-time hardware indexing, snapshot replay, protocol filtering, and multi-level triggering, significantly improving analysis efficiency. Its software provides high-speed histograms, correlation analysis, and multi-layer views, helping engineers pinpoint errors and bottlenecks. The tool displays detailed PCIe 6.0 data, including Link Training, Equalization, Flow Control, TLPs, and DLLPs, offering deep insight into complex transmissions.

The platform also handles hot-plug testing, error injection, and complex PCIe topology analysis, making it versatile for diverse testing environments. SerialTek emphasizes its analyzer’s value not just in R&D but also for validation and compliance testing. By blending advanced hardware with powerful software, SerialTek’s PCIe 6.0 solution helps manufacturers accelerate development, improve quality, and tackle the rigorous demands of modern high-speed applications, reinforcing its leadership in protocol analysis.
