Abstract:
1. A Field Programmable Gate Array including a logic unit under test, the Field Programmable Gate Array comprising: a probe signal selecting unit configured to select at least one probe point from a plurality of probe points in said logic unit under test and obtain a probe signal at said probe point; a high speed serial transceiver configured to convert said probe signal into a high speed serial signal and transmit said high speed serial signal to outside the Field Programmable Gate Array, wherein said high speed serial transceiver also receives a stimulation signal; a stimulation signal selecting unit configured to select a stimulation signal received by said high speed serial transceiver and apply it to said logic unit under test; and a stimulation signal transforming unit configured to transform said stimulation signal into a signal that matches said stimulation signal selecting unit when said stimulation signal received by said high speed serial transceiver does not match said stimulation signal selecting unit.
