SIGNAL QUALITY ANALYSER SUPPORTS PCI EXPRESS 6.0 BASE SPECIFICATION RX TEST
The Anritsu Signal Quality Analyzer-R MP1900A now supports the PCI Express 6.0 Base Specification Receiver Test (Rx Test). As well as adding support for
generating PCIe 6.0 Base Spec. Compliance Test patterns, the MP1900A certified PCIe 3.0/4.0/5.0 tester now has an SKP function to filter SKP packets to support separate clock architecture (SRNS). This update offers customers
an efficient test solution meeting their design requirements by including automation software to calibrate the stressed test signal and measure jitter tolerance using real-time oscilloscopes from collaborating partners. As a result, one MP1900A now covers tests from PCIe 3.0 to PCIe 6.0.
Anritsu is continuing to
develop future quality evaluation for PCIe equipment by actively proposing new technologies to PCI-SIG, and extending its tester functions with a focus on the PCIe 6.0 Base Spec. Compliance Test. The spread of 5G services

facilitating large data communications at high speeds is driving rapid evolution of new technologies, such as edge computing, IoT, and AI. At the same time, the internal interfaces of transmission equipment, servers, and storage in data centres forming the base of this technical revolution are
switching to the faster and larger capacity PCIe standard. Following completion of the
PCIe 6.0 Base Specification in January 2022, development of the CEM specification to assure compatible connections is progressing ahead of the start of correlation tests in 2023. Since the PCIe 6.0 standard is
the first to support new technologies, such as PAM4 modulation and Forward Error Correction (FEC), it requires test methods for evaluating the quality of 32 Gbaud PAM4 signals with a 1/3 smaller Eye opening, as well as for measuring the BER and evaluating FEC.
HIGH ACCURACY GAS ANALYSER CALIBRATION
Panasonic has introduced a new 1,500V PhotoMOS relay in miniature DIP5 packaging for use in industrial BMS. The new PhotoMOS HE relay series from Panasonic Industry Europe offers 5kV I/O isolation and an increased clearance and creepage distance on the output side, plus miniature 1-Form-A DIP5 packaging, making it particularly suitable as the switching system for Battery Management Systems (BMS) in storage systems, charging stations, and numerous other high voltage measurement and
infrastructure control applications.
”Industrial BMS applications demand reliability and consistent performance over the product lifespan”, says Michael Renner, Product Manager at Panasonic Industry Europe. “These new devices extend the load voltage of Panasonic’s PhotoMOS relay family and improve ruggedness and stability.” Rated at 1,500V/20mA, the

AQV258H5 HE series PhotoMOS relays have a MOSFET output and enjoy an almost unlimited
lifetime if used according to the specifications. On-resistance remains stable throughout the entire lifetime – and AQV258H5 HE series PhotoMOS relays – unlike electromechanical devices - are unaffected by vibration, a significant benefit in many industrial applications. The PhotoMOS series
AQV258H5 relays also feature a low control current and low leakage current and produce no switching noise. Devices come with 5 pins to accomodate different creepage and clearance requirements.
