  PRML Chip Adapter

40+ PRML Chip Channels Integrated to GUZIK Tester

Data Rate up to 1Gbit/s, limited by the PRML chip channel

Easy to install Plug-in board
Analog and Digital Test outputs
Control Software
Fast Optimization

We support the channels from world famous manufacturers:

Lucent Technologies
Texas Instruments/Ssi
Cirrus Logic, Inc.
NEC/DataPath Systems, Inc.
Marvell
IBM
STMicroelectronics
Infineon/Siemens
Hitachi

By default, we ship RWA with preinstalled adapter for Lucent MS252 or MS352 chip. You might change it or order additional one. To get information about particular PRML Chip Channel availability contact Guzik Sales.


If we don't have designed adapter for the chip you chosen, we can make this design by your request. Usually, it takes four weeks. Additional NRE charge may apply. Send our engineer your request and we will be glad to integrate your PRML chip into RWA.
To receive Data Specification for the PRML chip channels, please contact the manufacturers.

Chip support software provides:

  • Access to all chip registers, divided into functional groups .
  • Proper chip handling during other WITE tests.
  • Fast Optimization PRML Chip Channel parameters to find the best settings for given head, media, and data rate.

PRML Chip Control window:

Provides Automatic adjustment of the chip parameters for each head/media combination.

  • Based on chip’s Quality Monitor or Comparator Error Rate value.
  • Measure current Quality Monitor.
  • Optimize.
  • Select chip parameters included in optimization.
  • Observe adaptive register(s) and QM variations along the track.
  • See how Quality Monitor and Error Rate depends on the values of any chip register.
