ASMedia and LeCroy Partner for Faster High Speed Serial Data Standard Development
LeCroy announced that ASMedia has chosen LeCroy as a partner in the development of new technologies for high speed serial data standards such as SuperSpeed USB and SATA. The partnership will bring a speed advantage to ASMedia's compliance and compatibility testing program, while providing LeCroy with industry insight through access to ASMedia's products and technologies.
We aASMedia will be using LeCroy's protocol-enabled receiver and transmitter tolerance tester (PeRT3) together with LeCroy's protocol analyzers and oscilloscopes for receiver testing, transmitter testing, and protocol-level compliance test and debug. Because the PeRT3 provides dramatically faster receiver tolerance testing; ASMedia engineers will have more time to spend on development. LeCroy's PeRT3 is used in the SuperSpeed USB Platform Integration Lab (USB-IF PIL lab) where ASMedia devices have recently passed compliance testing.
We are particularly pleased with the performance of LeCroy's total solution on USB 3.0 because it frees our engineers to move rapidly to other areas of development, said Weber Chuang, AVP of Marketing of ASMedia. LeCroy provides an end-to-end test equipment lineup that will help us bring our products to market faster and more reliably.
