This unit
The Keysight U4305B is a PCIe protocol exerciser module that validates and debugs PCI Express devices and systems across Gen1, Gen2, and Gen3 speeds. Operating as either a root complex or endpoint emulator, it generates and responds to transaction layer packets, data link layer packets, and physical layer traffic. The module supports link widths from x1 to x16 and includes advanced capabilities for NVMe emulation, power management testing, LTSSM validation, and PCI-SIG compliance testing.
Error injection, protocol checking, and data replay from captured analyzer sessions enable thorough device characterization. Control is provided via graphical user interface or APIs supporting TCL, Python, C++, and C# for automated test development and execution.

Agilent / Keysight U4305B — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Agilent / Keysight U4305B. Calibration covers analog input channel accuracy and offset at all gain settings, analog output accuracy, digital I/O logic threshold verification, sample rate and timing accuracy, and trigger and synchronization bus functional verification. NI CompactRIO and PXI chassis also undergo backplane trigger line integrity check.. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.
Common Agilent / Keysight U4305B faults: power supply failure (cRIO-9073/9074), C-series slot connector wear, PXI chassis fan failure, GPIB interface failure on VXI controllers, BIOS/EEPROM corruption. NI CompactRIO most common faults are power supply failure on older cRIO-9073/9074 chassis and C-series module slot connector wear from repeated hot-swap cycles. PXI chassis fan failure is the most common wear item — chassis fans are field-replaceable. VXI embedded controllers most commonly develop EEPROM corruption and GPIB interface failure.
