N7016A Type-C Low-Speed Signal Access and Control Fixture

• Connects to the N7015A Type-C high-speed fixture through a captive Type-C cable, conveying CC1, CC2, SBU1, SBU2, Vbus and ground signals
• Enables termination control for cable-only connection or to simulate upstream or downstream devices
• breakout of USB 3.1 signals from USB devices for system diagnosis and control
• Allows probing of CC1, CC2, Vbus, D+, D- signals with an oscilloscope probe for in-depth signal analysis
• Load VConn to simulate system environment
• Flips the connection electronically to change the active USB 3.1 high speed port
• Breaks out Vbus for driving with power controller or external supply

The N7016A Type-C low-speed signal access and control fixture manages power and control lines from the N7015A Type-C high-speed test fixture to support termination requirements, test configuration, and connection to a power delivery controller.

The N7016A is connected to the N7015A Type-C high-speed test fixture through a captive Type-C cable, conveying CC1, CC2, Vbus and ground signals. It allows the breakout of USB 3.1 signals from USB devices for system diagnosis and control and also allows probing of the CC1, CC2, Vbus signals with a high-impedance passive probe for in-depth signal analysis. The N7016A enables termination control for cable-only connection or to simulate upstream or downstream devices. It can simultaneously flip the connection electronically (change the active USB 3.1 high-speed port) and break out Vbus for driving with a power controller or external supply. It can also load VConn to simulate system environment.
