Abstract: An example test system includes a circuit to sample a signal that is repetitive in cycles to obtain data; a processor configured to generate an eye diagram based on the data, where the eye diagram represents parametric information about the signal; and a functional test circuit to receive the signal and to perform one or more functional tests on the signal. The test systems is configured to receive the signal from a unit under test and to allow the signal to pass to the functional test circuit inline without changing at least part of the signal.

Abstract: An example system includes circuitry to receive an input signal, to provide a related signal based on informational content of the input signal, and to obtain parametric data associated with the input signal. The parametric data represents one or more signal characteristics other than the informational content. The example system also includes a first switch that is configurable to provide first data based on the related signal to one or more first channels of the system; and a second switch that is configurable to provide second data based on the parametric data to one or more second channels of the system.
