Abstract: A test and measurement system has a test and measurement instrument having an adaptor with an interface configured to communicate through one or more communications links with a new device under test to receive new test results, a memory configured to store a database of test results and a database of analyzed test results related to tests performed with one or more prior devices under test, a data analyzer connected to the test and measurement instrument through the one or more communications link, the data analyzer configured to analyze the new test results based on the stored test results, and a health score generator configured to generate a health score for the new device under test based on the analysis from the data analyzer.

Abstract: Systems, devices and methods for high-speed I/O margin testing can screen high volumes of pre-production and production parts and identify cases where the electrical characteristics have changed enough to impact operation. The margin tester disclosed is lower cost, easier to use and faster than traditional BERT and scopes and can operate on the full multi-lane I/O links in their standard operating states with full loading and cross-talk. The margin tester assesses the electrical receiver margin of an operation multi-lane high speed I/O link with a device under test simultaneously in either or both directions. In a technology-specific form, an embodiment of the margin tester can be implemented as an add-in card margin tester to test motherboard slots of a mother board under test, or as a as a motherboard with slots to test add-in cards.

Abstract: A margin tester including an identification reader configured to receive an adaptor identifier of an adaptor, an interface configured to connect to a device under test through the adaptor, and one or more processors configured to assess a margin, such as an electrical margin or an optical margin, of a device under test and tag the assessment with the adaptor identifier. Assessing the margin can include assessing the margin based on an expected margin that is predicted or provided based on the adaptor identifier.
