Getting Started
This chapter contains the following information for the TMS S2A SC330
hardware support product:
HConfiguring the probe adapter
HConnecting the logic analyzer to the system under test
HApplying power and operating the probe adapter
Support Package Description
The SC330 probe adapter is nonintrusive hardware that allows the logic analyzer
to acquire data from a microprocessor in its own operating environment with
little effect on that system.
The SC330 probe adapter is an interposer design. Using this design, the probe
adapter connects to the system under test, and then the microprocessor connects
to the probe adapter. Signals from the microprocessor module flow through the
probe adapter into the P6434 probes and through the probe cables to the logic
analyzer.
Support Software Compatibility
The SC330 probe adapter is compatible with software products that provide
timing analysis capabilities, and synchronous transactions and instruction decode.
These support software are only available to customers with a valid restricted
secret nondisclosure agreement (RS–NDA) with Intel.
At the time of printing, the compatible software support product is the TMS113.
When using the SC330 probe adapter with the TMS113 software, choose any one
of the SC330 custom clocking options.
However, for customers without RS-NDAs, Tektronix offers a basic clocking
software for the SC330 probe adapter at no cost. This clocking software allows
customers to conduct timing analysis by predefining channel assignments and
configuring the logic analyzer to acquire all bus cycles. Contact you Tektronix
representative to obtain this complementary software or to determine which latest
software support products are compatible with the TMS S2A SC330 product.

Getting Started
Logic Analyzer Configuration
To use the TMS S2A SC330 hardware support package you need a Tektronix
logic analyzer (TLA) equipped with one of the following:
HA 102 channel and 136-channel module
HTwo 102 channel modules
HTwo 136 channel modules
NOTE. To debug front side buses running faster than 100 MHz, you need a 200
MHz module pair from the above list.
The modules must be in adjacent slots and merged.
References to a 204 channel module include the two 102-channel modules that
are merged and any other merged module combination of a minimum of
204-channels (for the merged combination).
You can acquire debug and APIC bus activity through the SC330 probe adapter.
Probing the APIC bus requires the TMS 801 APIC bus support package, a third
102-channel acquisition module, and standard probes. See Alternate Connections
on page 1–16 for more details.

Logic Analyzer Setup and Hold Adjustment for IA32G4 (TMS113) Software
Support
The logic analyzer setup and hold adjustment is recommended for adjusting
channel group setup and hold windows in the IA32G4 (TMS113) software
support. To ensure that the logic analyzer acquires synchronous data correctly,
follow this procedure to make setup and hold adjustments.
However, if you are only planning to use the complementary clocking software
with the TMS S2A SC330 probe adapter to acquire asynchronous timing data,
then the following adjustment procedure is not needed.
NOTE. You should perform this procedure each time you move the probe adapter
to another system under test or a different slot in your system under test.
A recommended starting point for determining your setup calibration is:
0 ns setup for the PAL group
1 ns setup for all other groups
Some figures only show the relevant parts of setup windows and dialog boxes.
There are three parts to the setup and hold calibration procedure:
HSelect a channel group, and then have that group trigger the Tektronix logic
analyzer using the setup and hold violation feature.
HCalibrate the setup and hold value for the channel group with a timing
violation.
HTransfer the adjusted setup and hold value to the Setup and Hold window.
You may want to repeat this procedure for channel groups that fail the setup and
hold violation test.

Getting Started
Selecting a Channel
Group
1. From the System window, in the File menu, load the support package.
2. From the System widow, click the Trigger button, and then click the If-Then
button.
3. From the Clause Definition window, open the If-clause pulldown menu,
select S&H fault, and then click on the Define Violation button (see
Figure 1–1).
Figure 1–1: Trigger setup for the channel group
NOTE. The default setup and hold value for the SC330 support is 2.5 ns setup and
0 ns hold for all groups, with the exception of PAL, which is 0 ns setup and 2.5 ns
hold.
Calibrating a Channel
Group
4. From the Setup and Hold Event window, all defined channel groups are
shown, along with their respective Setup and Hold windows. Uncheck
. all boxes except the group you want to calibrate. Enter the setup and hold
values for that channel group, and click OK to return to the System window.
5. From the system window, click RUN and wait for the TLA to trigger on a
setup and hold violation. If after a delay with the system under test running,
there is no trigger, then the selected group is calibrated correctly.
6. Repeat steps 3 through 5 to check for another channel group that needs
calibrating.
7. If the TLA is triggered by a violation, open a MagniVu Waveform window,
clear all visible waveforms, and add the following three waveforms:
MagniVu BCLK (CLK3)
MagniVu channel group (Mag_XXX)
NonMagniVu channel group (selected from the data source window)
NOTE. The nonMagniVu waveform is added because the trigger is based on
acquisition memory from the Tektronix logic analyzer, not the MagniVu memory.

8. Select the GoTo button to find the trigger point in the MagniVu window. The
trigger point is centered at the transition of the nonMagniVu selected group
(see Figure 1–2, d).

9. Change the nonMagniVu group to hexadecimal radix, since the MagniVu
group is displayed in hexadecimal. Zoom in to view the hexadecimal value
of the displayed group, if necessary.
10. Check for where the transition information (see Figure 1–2, e) of the selected
NOTE. Use your judgement to find the transition point, since it is possible to have
the group transition up to and even past the appropriate rising BLCK edge. Also,
some of the bits in the nonMagniVu group may not match the bits in the MagniVu
group (this is due to pipelining).
11. At the violation point in the MagniVu group (see Figure 1–2, f), do the
TMS S2A SC330 Hardware Support
nonMagniVu group matches the MagniVu waveform value
(see Figure 1–2, f).
following:
a. Position cursor 1 on the last transition point of the MagniVu group
before the hexadecimal value of interest (see Figure 1–2, a).
b. Position cursor 2 on the next rising BCLK edge (see Figure 1–2, b).
