Transmitter compliance testing to certify PCIe 6.0® devices requires an oscilloscope which can measure PAM4 signals up to 64 GT/s data rates from their device under test (DUT). Developers need to conduct physical-layer testing, data link layer testing, and general interoperability testing to reach PCI-SIG®-approved transmitter compliance using high-bandwidth oscilloscopes.
PCIe 6.0 transmitter compliance testing requires a >50 GHz oscilloscope with at least a 256 GSa/s sampling rate to test 64 GT/s signals. These tests also require automated compliance test software that can analyze PAM4 noise and jitter performance to accurately measure the signal from the DUT and confirm conformance to the PCI-SIG standard.
