Abstract: An interposer is shown with contact points on a lateral edge. When assembled between a board under test and an integrated circuit, traces of the interposer carry signals between the board under test and the integrated circuit and also between signal lines of the integrated circuit and the lateral edge contact points. The signals can then be accessed by test equipment at the lateral edge contact points. The interposer may include additional components connected to the traces.

Abstract: A bridge connector assembly may provide access to signals of a circuit that includes an integrated circuit. The bridge connector assembly may include first and second circuit boards that are mated edge to edge, structural members that maintain the position of each circuit board in relation to each other and connectors to carry signals from edge connectors on one board to corresponding connectors on the second board.
Abstract: A signal analysis system that may include threshold setting for analyzing analog signals. The system may include a plurality of digitizers and adjustable power supplies for supplying threshold voltages for the digitizers. The system may digitize a set of analog signals, locate features and attributes in the digitized signals and determine a duty cycle for signals based on the signal features and attributes. The determined duty cycle may then be used to set threshold voltages on the power supplies.
