Gen5 AIC to U.2 Breaker Module

Gen5 AIC to U.2 Breaker Module

Part Number: QTL2813 / QTL2814

Product Details

Gen5 PCIe requires a rethink of test equipment configuration. Using this module, you can test a U.2 drive directly from an AIC slot without any additional adapters or cables

Perform full hot-swap and fault injection with the latest GEN5 PCIe SFF/U.2 drives.

The module has complete control over power, data (dual port) and present pins, allowing simulation of any possible hot-swap scenario. Pin bounce, individual signal control, and high-speed glitching combine. Consequently, you will be able to perform a much larger number of test cases. ‘Driving’ is available on some sideband pins. Rather than disconnecting signals, this allows additional tests to drive them high/low. The ‘+Triggering’ version has an additional MCX trigger IN/OUT to sync with external test equipment.

Power and control can be provided via USB or a separate QTL1260 interface kit.

  • NOTE: We recommend that this product should be evaluated in your test environment before purchasing.
