The Voyager M310e features the industry’s highest fidelity probe design and provides unmatched reliability when testing devices at USB 2.0 or the latest generation USB 3.2 Gen-2x1 (10Gb/s) speeds. Designed to non intrusively record both 5 and 10 Gbps SuperSpeed links, the analog front end in the M310e is fully compatible with systems that use Alternate Modes including two-lane and four lane DisplayPort.
Hot plug any combination of USB host and device and the Voyager system will transparently follow speed negotiation and lock to the established rate. While in line, it will detect and seamlessly recover from electrical idle and low power modes while accurately showing all U1/U2/ U3 state transitions.
The front-end of the Voyager analyzer features standard USB Type-C connectors that support USB 2.0 and 3.0/3.2 signals to provide loss-less capture of traffic from all active links simultaneously. Concurrent recording of legacy USB, SuperSpeed+ and PD messages, allows end-to-end viewing of USB 3.2 Type-C bridge and dock configuration requests (legacy USB devices are fully supported using the included adapter cables). The Voyager M310e platform includes 16GB of recording memory plus USB 3.2 (Gen 1) and Gbe links for uploading recorded traffic to the host PC.
The heart of the Voyager analyzer is Teledyne LeCroy’s revolutionary BusEngine technology. This state-of-the-art protocol processing core incorporates a real-time recording engine and configurable tools to selectively monitor and record SuperSpeed USB traffic. Field upgradeable firmware allows the BusEngine to evolve and support new features or future changes to the USB specification.
The Voyager utilizes the legendary CATC Trace - the industry’s de facto standard since the inception of USB 1.0 technology. The trace viewer software uses colors and patterns to train the eye to understand information faster. When recording mixed traffic upstream from a SuperSpeed hub, Legacy 2.0 and 3.2 packets are labeled and interleaved in a single display. Each event is shown on a separate row with every field labeled and color-coded. Traffic from the logical 2.0 & 3.2 channels can be individually filtered, searched or exported from the trace. The USB Transfer level can be expanded and collapsed to show the packet layer including all link commands and flow control primitives.
The Voyager software performs full decoding of USB device class traffic with both automatic and manual assignment of decodes to individual endpoints. From MTP, to CCD, to Video class, the Voyager provides the most comprehensive decoding available. It offers full support for the newest device types including Audio 3.0, Type-C Bridge, Content Security and USB Attached SCSI.
The Voyager is the only analyzer on the market that captures every transition at the 5 and 10 Gb/s link rates including idles, inter-packet symbols, corrupt 10-bit codes and 128-bit data blocks. The Link Tracker provides a chronological upstream / downstream display of all ordered sets with timing resolution of 800ps. Designed to assist with low-level debugging, all symbols including training sequences can be displayed in raw 10-bit, 8-bit, scrambled, and unscrambled Hex format. Symbol-to-symbol timing measurements are possible with a single click.
The Voyager provides hardware triggering to pinpoint protocol events of interest. Trigger events can be specified at the lowest levels including bus states and ordered sets (Link up, SKP, etc...) or header fields including address or packet types (ACK, Data, etc….). analyzer can filter unwanted traffic from the buffer in real-time by discarding redundant patterns such as SKPs, idles, and training sequences Voyager's graphical drag-and-drop interface makes setup easy.
The Teledyne LeCroy Voyager can detect and flag real protocol errors including more than 50 different USB issues and 15 unique PD error conditions. At the lower layers, training sequences, header fields, link layer handshakes and timing parameters are automatically verified. At the SCSI and USB transaction layers, individual exchanges are checked for completeness. The Spec-View displays header fields in hex or binary and also marks errors in red.
Fully automated, the compliance application provides point-and-pick selection of individual test cases. All tests utilize emulation scripts to mimic USB and Type-C link behaviors. The system initiates and responds to USB and PD commands like a real device while analyzing the response from the DUT. It communicates directly over Type-C cabling, records and analyzes every protocol exchange, and generates a pass/fail report.
Teledyne LeCroy’s Power Delivery (PD) and Type-C test beds have been continuously improved since 2016 and allow developers to verify functionality, error recovery, and compliance for PD and Type-C devices. The Voyager platform offers comprehensive support for the Power Delivery Compliance Test Specification revision 1.3 and is an officially recognized “gold suite” test tool by the USB-IF. The new “merged” PD test spec provides 100% coverage of PD 2.0 & 3.2 functionality including EPR. Passing the Teledyne LeCroy test suite is required for PD and Type-C devices seeking USB-IF logo certification
Built on the same open architecture, all the Compliance Suite options include full source code for each test case. This represents a comprehensive library of test scripts that can be easily re-purposed for custom test development. Both the exerciser and verification scripts can be modified without recompiling. As the test specifications are revised and compliance tests are updated, customers will receive all maintenance releases at no additional cost.
The Voyager software provides many mechanisms to measure and report on PD and USB 2.0/3.2 protocol. With the Traffic Summary display, users can evaluate statistical reports at a glance or navigate to individual events. Users may select transaction packets to view ACK/NAK or Device Notification events, then jump to each occurrence with a single keystroke. Higher-level events are also tracked and reported at the logical USB Transfer level. Reports are available showing link throughput, latency and efficiency metrics. Error events are also reported showing 50 different protocol violations - from invalid CRCs to framing errors to incomplete PD contracts. The LTSSM View provides an interactive USB 3.0/3.2 state machine diagram. Bus Utilization graphs show data and packet length, bus usage by device in a histogram format. The Bandwidth calculator automatically calculates the time delta between two points in the trace. Fast Search and Find options allow users to navigate to specific packets, errors and any data type within a trace file.
A comprehensive exerciser capability with support for both USB PD, USB 2.0, 3.0 and 3.2 traffic generation is built-in to the Voyager platform. The exerciser option allows users to transmit custom packets over standard USB cables with low-level control of headers, payloads, timing, and link states. Voyager ReadyLink™ performs link synchronization, flow control and header acknowledgements automatically in hardware. The Transaction Engine manages NRDY retry conditions allowing the Voyager to operate at full line rate and correctly respond to the DUT as defined by the specification. Overrides allow normal behaviors to be altered such as inserting errors, shortening LFPS intervals, link training sequences or handshake timing.
