[0002] With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence technology, the demand for new hardware accelerators required in the fields of machine learning, deep learning, and high-performance computing has surged, showing an explosive growth trend. In order to shorten the development cycle of solutions and accelerate the launch of products, the industry has introduced the concept of open accelerator modules (OAMs), which use standardized interfaces and forms to encapsulate graphics processing units (GPUs) as standard units. These modules are connected to the universal baseboard (UBB) through the mirror mezzanine connector located at the bottom of the open accelerator module, which not only realizes the interconnection between multiple OAMs, but also ensures smooth external communication.

[0003] In the development and actual deployment of OAM products, debugging of high-speed signals such as PCIe has become a crucial link. In order to accurately locate and solve possible problems in the PCIe link, it is usually necessary to rely on a high-precision protocol analyzer for in-depth analysis. Currently, the protocol analyzer needs to be connected to the tested structure through an adapter board for diagnosis. However, since the OAM module adopts a standardized interface design, in the process of integrating OAM and UBB, the traditional adapter board is difficult to adapt to the connection requirements of OAM, which brings great challenges and inconvenience to the OAM testing work.

[0068] By setting a through hole 305 on the fixture substrate 3, and the first connecting line directly passing through the through hole 305 to realize the electrical connection between the second signal pin 402 and the fourth signal pin 502, and using the through hole 305 as a physical channel for the first connecting line, the first connecting line is effectively protected from damage by the external environment, ensuring the stability and long-term reliability of the connection between the first connecting line and the second signal pin 402 and the fourth signal pin 502, and optimizing the wiring path of the first connecting line, effectively avoiding unnecessary extension of the length of the first connecting line, which not only reduces the use of materials and reduces costs, but also further improves the efficiency and response speed of signal transmission, and realizes efficient use of resources and optimization of spatial layout.

[0069] In one embodiment, the fixture substrate 3 further includes a first blind hole 306, a second blind hole 307, a first connecting hole 308, a third blind hole 309, a fourth blind hole 310 and a second connecting hole 311; the first blind hole 306 is arranged on the side where the first surface 301 is located, corresponding to the position where the first signal pin 401 is located; the second blind hole 307 is arranged on the side where the first surface 301 is located, and is spaced from the first blind hole 306, and corresponds to the position where the third pad 303 is located; the first connecting hole 308 is arranged between the first surface 301 and the second surface 302, and the two ends are connected to the first blind hole 306 and the second blind hole 307 respectively; the third blind hole 309 is arranged on the side where the second surface 302 is located, corresponding to the position where the third signal pin 501 is located; the fourth blind hole 310 is arranged on the second surface 302 The side where the second surface 302 is located is spaced apart from the third blind hole 309 and corresponds to the position where the fourth pad 304 is located; the second connecting hole 311 is arranged between the first surface 301 and the second surface 302, spaced apart from the first connecting hole 308, and the two ends are respectively connected to the third blind hole 309 and the fourth blind hole 310; the test fixture also includes a second connecting wire and a third connecting wire; one end of the second connecting wire is connected to the first signal pin 401, and the other end passes through the first blind hole 306, the first connecting hole 308 and the second blind hole 307 in sequence to be connected to the third pad 303; one end of the third connecting wire is connected to the third signal pin 501, and the other end passes through the third blind hole 309, the second connecting hole 311 and the fourth blind hole 310 in sequence to be connected to the fourth pad 304.

[0070] By setting the first blind hole 306, the first connecting hole 308 and the second blind hole 307 on the fixture substrate 3, a physical channel is constructed for the second connecting line, which effectively protects the second connecting line from damage by the external environment, and ensures the stability and long-term reliability of the connection between the second connecting line and the first signal pin 401 and the third soldering pad 303; by setting the third blind hole 309, the second connecting hole 311 and the fourth blind hole 310 on the fixture substrate 3, a physical channel is constructed for the third connecting line, which effectively protects the third connecting line from damage by the external environment, and ensures the stability and long-term reliability of the connection between the third connecting line and the third signal pin 501 and the fourth soldering pad 304.

[0071] Preferably, the length of the first connecting hole 308 is greater than the distance between the first blind hole 306 and the second blind hole 307, providing redundant space for the second connecting line; the length of the second connecting hole 311 is greater than the distance between the third blind hole 309 and the fourth blind hole 310, providing redundant space for the third connecting line; when a part of the second connecting line or the third connecting line ages due to long-term use or environmental factors, the transmission performance of this part may decline, which is specifically manifested in signal attenuation, increased transmission delay or noise interference. However, thanks to the design of the redundant part, if the aging is not serious enough to make the entire connecting line completely ineffective, the redundant part will be able to continue to undertake the transmission task, and the signal can still be smoothly transmitted from one end to the other; ensuring that even in the face of aging of part of the line, the reliability of the entire connection can still be effectively guaranteed.

[0073] By setting the first connecting hole 308 on the side close to the first surface 301, the length of the first blind hole 306 and the second blind hole 307 can be reduced. By setting the second connecting hole 311 on the side close to the second surface 302, the length of the third blind hole 309 and the fourth blind hole 310 can be reduced. The wiring paths of the second connecting wire and the third connecting wire are optimized, which effectively avoids unnecessary extension of the length of the second connecting wire and the third connecting wire, which not only reduces the use of materials and reduces costs, but also further improves the efficiency and response speed of signal transmission, thereby achieving efficient use of resources and optimization of spatial layout.
