Abstract: A high-speed signal subsystem testing system tests a processor transmitter and receiver coupled to a connector via a transmitter trace and a receiver trace, respectively. A transmitter test circuit on a testing board coupled to the connector compares a transmitter voltage received from the transmitter via the transmitter trace and the connector to a common mode voltage range and, in response to the transmitter voltage being outside the common mode voltage range, provides a transmitter trace issue signal. A receiver test circuit on the testing board coupled to the connector transmits a first test voltage towards the receiver, compares a second test voltage detected at the receiver test circuit in response to transmitting the first test voltage towards the receiver to a reference test voltage and, in response to the second test voltage being above the reference test voltage, provides a receiver trace issue signal.

Abstract: A corrosion monitoring/alerting system includes a chassis. A corrosion monitoring subsystem identifies a current humidity and a current temperature in the chassis, determines that the current humidity is above a corrosion-alert humidity and the current temperature is below a corrosion-alert temperature and, in response, generates a first corrosion alert signal. A corrosion alert subsystem identifies the first corrosion alert signal and, in response, transmits a first recommended corrosion remediation action communication. The corrosion monitoring subsystem may also transmit a test current through a test computing subsystem connection, determine that a test voltage generated in response to transmitting the test current through the test computing subsystem connection is below a corrosion-alert voltage and, response, generate a second corrosion alert signal. The corrosion alert subsystem may identify the second corrosion alert signal and, in response, transmit a second recommended corrosion remediation action communication.

Abstract: A differential trace pair system includes a board having a first, a second, a third, and a fourth board structure member. A differential trace pair in the board includes a first differential trace extending between the first and the third board structure members, and a second differential trace extending between the second and the fourth board structure members. The differential trace pair includes a serpentine region that includes a first portion and a second portion where the first and the second differential traces have a first width, are substantially parallel, and spaced apart by a first differential trace pair spacing, and a third portion in which the second differential trace includes a second width that is greater than the first width, the first and second differential traces are substantially parallel and spaced apart by a second differential trace pair spacing that is greater than the first differential trace pair spacing.

Abstract: A differential trace pair system includes a first conductive layer that is located immediately adjacent a first insulating layer. The system includes a second conductive layer that is located immediately adjacent the first insulating layer and opposite the first insulating layer from the first conductive layer, and includes an aperture that extends through the second conductive layer. A second insulating layer is located immediately adjacent the second conductive layer and opposite the second conductive layer from the first insulating layer. The system includes a first differential trace pair that is included in the second insulating layer and that includes a first differential trace that is positioned adjacent the aperture and references the second conductive layer, and a second differential trace that is longer than the first differential trace and that includes a first portion that is positioned adjacent the second conductive layer aperture and references the first conductive layer.

Abstract: A backplane testing system includes a test backplane coupled to a test device chassis and including a first connector system, a second connector system, and channels that connect the first connector system and the second connector system. A first test device in a first test device slot on the test device chassis engages the first connector system and provides a loop back circuit for the first connector system. A second test device in a second test device slot on the test device chassis engages the second connector system. The second test device sends a test signal through a channel on the test backplane such that the test signal is provided to the loop back circuit on the first test device and received back through the channel. The second test device analyzes the test signal that is received to determine a testing compliance of the channel on the test backplane.
