Minimum Hardware (Continued)
Chassis and controller considerations (Continued)
– There are three host PC possibilities for an AXIe chassis - M9536A embedded controller,
external laptop PC, or external desktop PC. Select one of the host PC configurations above
for your U4164A system
– If you’re using a laptop or desktop PC, see 5990-7632EN for a list of tested computers
– An M9505A 5-slot chassis is required when using a U4164A three-module set or a U4164A
two-module set when used with an M9536A embedded controller as the M9536A is
installed in the bottom slot (slot 1) of the chassis
– Version 6.20 or higher of the logic and protocol analyzer software needs to be installed
on the host PC. Refer to the software download site for the latest supported operating
systems
Cables
Up to four U4201A logic analyzer cables may be required per U4164A module depending on
probing method. See probing chart for details. Interposers with direct connect cabling, such as
the FuturePlus FS2510AB DDR4 DIMM interposer, do not require additional U4201A cables.
