The Keysight 64700B Emulator Card Cage is a modular chassis system that houses and manages emulator and analyzer cards for embedded system debugging and real-time processor analysis. Built on a dual-bus architecture, the cage enables nonintrusive tracing without interrupting processor execution, supporting 8-, 16-, or 32-bit processor configurations through interchangeable card sets.
## Technical Specifications
• Card slots: 6.5 total; 2.5 reserved for host control and optional LAN card; 4 available for emulator cards, optional software performance analyzer, and future expansion
• Internal bus: 60-pin data bus for inter-card communication
• Connectivity: LAN interface and RS-232 serial communication
• Front-panel status indicators: LEDs for status and alarm monitoring
• Processor support: Configurable 8-, 16-, or 32-bit architectures
• Architecture: Dual-bus design for real-time, nonintrusive analysis
## Key Features
The modular card cage design enables rapid reconfiguration and disassembly for processor transitions. The 60-pin internal data bus provides deterministic inter-card signaling. External LAN and RS-232 interfaces allow remote development tool operation across laboratory and enterprise network environments. Front-panel LEDs provide immediate status visibility without external instrumentation.
## Typical Applications
Embedded system development and validation for microcontroller-based designs. Real-time instruction and data tracing during target execution. Integration with software performance analysis tools via optional analyzer cards. Multi-processor debugging configurations leveraging modular emulator card sets.
## Compatibility & Integration
The 64700B cage accepts emulator and analyzer cards including the 64746J, 64170A Memory Control Board, 64708A SPA VME Card, 64794A Emulation Bus Analyzer, 64700 Series Emulator, and Keysight 64782 Motorola 6833x-family emulator. Host systems include HP 9000 workstations and PCs. Firmware compatibility is card-specific; firmware updates may be required when upgrading from older to newer emulator cards, potentially including Flash EPROM board programming.
