Claim 16:
17. An apparatus comprising:
a small-form factor connector configured to receive a fiber optic cable, the apparatus being connectable to a unit under testing (UUT) via the fiber optic cable;
an input analog interface, the input analog interface is configured to connect with an external device;
an analog to digital converter (ADC); and
a processor connected to the ADC, wherein the apparatus is configured to receive at least one target analog signal from the external device via the input analog interface and convert the at least one target analog signal into at least one target digital signal, respectively, and
the processor is configured to transmit the target digital signal to a central processing unit in the UUT via the fiber optic cable, wherein the at least one target analog signal is associated with one or more register addresses in the central processing unit, wherein the processor is configured to periodically receive state information from the one or more register addresses, where the period is less than or equal to an analog to digital conversion of an analog to digital converter (ADC) in the UUT.
