The 3-phase Power Analysis Module (PAM) is a significant step up from its predecessor. You can now scale up and analyze the power consumption of your entire rack using the same analysis tools and scripts you use for a single SSD. 

Supporting three-phase power supplies up to 63A, this device allows you to run power Vs performance testing on large installations. Optimizing workloads to conserve power and reduce heat generation is critical in today’s data centers. Significant cost savings over the life of the equipment.

The module is supported by our industry leading software and automation options, so you can get started right away. Long-term, high-resolution traces (8KHz sampling) allow you gain far more data on your systems performance

This fixture provides a simple analysis option for custom wiring harnesses, measurement of ICs and much more. 2 power rails and 16 digital channels can be connected via the pluggable terminal blocks. This makes way for a very simple setup.

Accurate, high-resolution measurements are taken on the power rails while digital sideband capture gives a full picture of host/device interaction.

Gen4 EDSFF E1 x4 PAM Fixture supports the latest drives in E3 form.

With the fixture, you can both capture analogue measurements (voltage, current, and power) and access track digital sideband assertions. Captured data can be viewed in real-time or stored for later processing and analysis.

This allows for a wide range of testing scenarios: Measure SSD power consumption during sleep, inrush current during power-up or capture the exact timing of PERST assertion from your host.

Gen5 SSDs may be power hungry and this updated fixture will allow you analyse them quickly.

The Gen5 SFF Drive PAM Fixture allows easy power performance and sideband timing analysis for SFF storage devices, supporting U.2, SAS, SATA and U.3 drives. At speeds up to PCIe GEN5.

Across all power rails, voltage and current are measured accurately.

Selected sidebands have digital capture, giving a full picture of host/device interaction.

As with our HD range Programmable Power Modules, the PAM fixtures provides high-resolution measurement, for almost unlimited periods of recording.
