Total Phase PROMIRA eSPI Bus Analyser Kit

Product Code: TP601100

First released by Intel in June 2013, the Enhanced Serial Peripheral Interface (eSPI®) is designed as a replacement for the Low Pin Count (LPC) bus. eSPI®supports communication between Embedded Controller (EC), Baseboard Management Controller (BMC), Super-I/O (SIO) and Port-80 debug cards. eSPI®was vailable in the Sky Lake chipset (2015) and is available in the Kaby Lake [current] chipset. Cannonlake will support eSPI®and is slated for release the second half of 2017. Icelake is scheduled for release in 2019 and it will mark the first chipset when eSPI®becomes mandatory. Prior to this specification, Embedded Controller (EC), Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) and Super I/O (SIO) were connected to the chipset through the Low Pin Count (LPC) bus. PROMIRA™ Serial Platform The PROMIRA™ Serial Platform is a powerful, fast and configurable engine for both driving serial buses and monitoring buses, non-intrusively, in real-time. . . eSPI®Analysis Application The Total Phase eSPI®Analysis Application is the first eSPI®monitor in the industry.

With this application you will be able to monitor eSPI®communication between multiple eSPI®devices:. Monitor communication between a master and slaves on data lines Support for single, dual and quad I/O Support for clock speeds up to 66MHz Monitor up to 5 channels (peripheral, virtual wire, OOB, Flash, Independent) Monitor up to 2 slave select lines Monitor 2 alert lines Monitor 2 reset lines Match triggers, hardware filters and statistics LiveDisplay Technology View eSPI®traffic as it is generated on the bus in true real time. Shorten debugging and development time by seeing data as they happen.
