Abstract

A data stream is transferred through a parallel data bus while the read or write strobe is adjusted. The resultant data is compared to the original data to detect errors with each data line of the parallel bus. The results are displayed on a grid whereby the characteristics of each line of the data bus may be visually understood. The characteristic image of the performance of the data bus may be used for debugging the bus, as well as for other uses wherein the performance is very highly characterized.
