Can the U4431A MIPI M-PHY protocol analyzer be controlled from an external PC via the AXIe mainframe's USB port?
Yes, the USB connected chassis option (M9502A-U20/M9505A-U20) is a viable connection strategy when using the U4431A M-PHY Protocol Analyzer instrument. For all host-connection solutions, only one is required (and only one can be used at a time).
Note that LAN is never a valid connection solution for the AXIe chassis, it is only used for connecting the host computer to the network.
The choices are:
- Embedded Controller (no external connection needed)
- PCIe connected remote PC/Laptop
- USB connected remote PC/Laptop
