Single-button automated M-PHY Transmitter testing.

M-PHY Transmitter/Receiver Testing withM-PHYTX/M-PHYRXSingle-button Automated M-PHY Transmitter/ReceiverTestingThe Tektronix M-PHYTX/M-PHYRX Automated Test software runs onTektronix real-time oscilloscopes that are based on Windows XP*1 orWindows 7*1 computer operating systems. M-PHYTX/M-PHYRX providesan automated, simple, and efficient way to test M-PHY Transmitter/Receiverinterfaces and devices consistent to the requirements of the M-PHY BaseSpecification v1.0 and Conformance Test Specification.Once the test bench is set up and the DUT is properly connected, simplypress the Run button to perform the selected test suite.*1 See host system requirements in the Ordering Information section.

Automated Transmitter/Receiver Testing – Save Timeand ResourcesThere is no longer a need to be an expert on testing procedures.Remembering the exact steps to take each measurement is timeconsuming and often requires going back to the M-PHY specifications.M-PHYTX/M-PHYRX takes the guesswork out of conducting M-PHYTransmitter/Receiver testing. Even if you remember how to use the testequipment, it is common for even the most experienced operators to forgetsteps in the procedure or to set up the correct parameters, such as applyingthe correct signal impairments for a given test. M-PHYTX/M-PHYRX allowsengineers to simply select the desired tests to run, and then work on othertasks while the tests are being executed.

M-PHYRX simple setup, test execution, and reporting, through Non-interleave channels ofan AWG7000.

Simple Setup, Test Execution, and ReportingTest setup and test execution is very simple with the M-PHYTX/M-PHYRXAutomated software. The test setup connections are very minimal, as itinvolves only one piece of equipment for M-PHYTX and only two piecesof equipment for M-PHYRX. M-PHYRX controls the Arbitrary WaveformGenerator (AWG) and Oscilloscope Error Detector. The TekExpresssoftware provides a Graphical User Interface (GUI) and an intuitive workflowthrough setup and testing.

Setting Up the BenchWhen setting up a test, nothing can be simpler than hooking up the testsystem by looking at a schematic. View the schematic of the selected testwith a push of a button.

Instrument Bench DiscoveryM-PHYRX software automatically (or on demand) scans and detectssupported instruments connected in your test bench (both Visa supportedand non-Visa supported instruments), whether they are connected throughLAN, or GPIB. A quick check of the Instrument Bench menu confirms allinstruments are networked correctly.

Comprehensive Transmitter/Receiver Test CoveragePerform regression of almost all the High Speed mode Transmitter andSelective High Speed mode Receiver tests such as Receiver JitterTolerance, Receiver Eye Opening, Common Mode or Differential InputVoltage Tolerance, etc. In addition, perform regression of most of the PWMTransmitter tests uniquely across all PWM Gears (G0 to G7).

Counting bit errors using Oscilloscope Error Detector, in DUT Receiver loopback.

M-PHYRX Loopback Initiation and RetentionBefore the Receiver test can start, the device under test must be put in theproper test mode, called Loopback, where the DUT loops the incomingsignal at Rx directly to the Tx port. Once the Loopback is set on theDUT, then the Arbitrary Waveform Generator sends a Continuous modesignal with recommended patterns for all measurements. The M-PHYRXAutomated software will allow the user to configure the Loopback settingsinitially, and retain them for subsequent test executions by sending thesignal continuously during the transition from one test to another.

M-PHYRX Error Detection – Both Scope-based andManualM-PHYRX software supports two methods of error detection. The firstmethod uses oscilloscope-based error detection and counting, leveragingthe oscilloscope-integrated ERRDT software in the background. Thesecond method uses a dialog box to read a manual entry of error counts.

M-PHYRX Ease of Testing with Pre-calibrated PatternsThe AWG (Arbitrary Waveform Generator) patterns are generated andfactory calibrated to ensure the impairments are within the specificationwith given golden accessories. This simplifies the number of patterns aswell as limits the time-consuming calibration routines. Both the AWG andOscilloscope Error Detector work together concurrently in Loopback mode,and pre-calibrated signals enable you to perform each measurement withinthree minutes of time.

Pass/Fail ReportThe M-PHYTX Report tab provides a single printable report of approx.1000 test results along with a Pass/Fail summary table, margins, andoptionally waveform screen captures, eye diagrams, histograms, bathtubcharts, etc. The M-PHYRX Report tab provides a view of test results alongwith Pass/Fail status and bit error counts. Upon completion of the test, acomprehensive report will be generated in .MHT format. The results of thetest will also be stored in an Excel .XLS file that can be used for further dataanalysis. Included in the test report are the configuration settings for the testequipment, test execution times, and comments for each test.

Powered by NI TestStand™The TekExpress automated compliance software uses NI (NationalInstruments) TestStand to manage and execute its test sequences. AWindows user interface is provided in the TekExpress software for simpleand complete operation of compliance measurements. However, ifyour validation and debug needs go beyond the features offered by theTekExpress software, a full version of NI TestStand can be used to develophigher-level automation sequences to control the TekExpress software.NI TestStand is the de facto industry-standard test managementenvironment for automating test and validation systems. NI TestStand isused to develop, manage, and execute test sequences, and to integrate testmodules written in any test programming language through an open andflexible architecture. Customers who own NI TestStand and purchase theTekExpress software will be able to write scripts using NI TestStand that callthe TekExpress software with a detailed list of commands. This commandset allows the NI TestStand user to recall and save TekExpress softwaresetups, control individual test parameters, control test selections, changeUI selections, change global parameters, start execution, query currentexecution status, and receive measurement results.

M-PHY Transmitter testing with M-PHYTX Automated or M-PHY Essentials usingsingle-ended/differential probes.

For device validation, it’s often desirable to make multiple runs of a singledevice using different operating conditions such as temperature andpower supply voltages. This is sometimes referred to as ‘four-cornerstesting’, (testing to low-high temperature and low-high supply voltages).For four-corners testing, NI TestStand supports drivers for a wide rangeof temperature chambers and power supplies. NI TestStand can beused to control the temperature chamber and then call the TekExpresssoftware for a compliance test using the limited command set. Foradjusting power supply voltages, the power supply control sequencefile within the TekExpress software can be modified using a standardNI TestStand sequence file. So if your company already uses NI TestStandfor automation, your test engineers can incorporate commands to run theTekExpress compliance software directly into their test sequences.

M-PHY Transmitter Testing with M-PHYEssentialsDPOJET software with Option M-PHY provides the essential set ofM-PHY Transmitter measurements with greater flexibility in the test setup.Like D-PHY Essentials on DPOJET, M-PHY Essentials also enablesCharacterization, Debug, Analysis, and Conformance testing of M-PHYdesigns.

100%M-PHY High-speed Transmitter Test CoverageM-PHY Essentials supports complete measurements to be performedin High-speed mode. It includes unique measurements such as PowerSpectral Density on the real-time oscilloscope itself. It’s a patent-pendingmethodology supported by Tektronix. Alternative solutions in the marketrequire additional hardware to perform this test. Moreover, M-PHYEssentials slew rate measurement can be extended to slew rate resolutionmeasurement.

Transmitter eye diagram measurement using M-PHYTX Automated or M-PHY Essentials.

Transmitter Power Spectral Density measurement using M-PHYTX Automated or M-PHYEssentials.

Transmitter Eye DiagramMeasurementEye diagram measurement performs the Transmitter Eye Opening (TEYE_TX)requirement at the minimum Differential AC Output Voltage Amplitude(VDIF_AC_xA_xT_TX), for all combinations of supported Amplitudes, Terminations,Gears, and Lanes.

Transmitter Power Spectral Density MeasurementPower Spectral Density (PSD) refers to the amount of power per unit(density) of frequency (spectral) as a function of the frequency. The PSDdescribes how the power (or variance) of a time series is distributed withfrequency. The Power Spectral Density measurement is performed onthe Tektronix oscilloscope itself using the patent-pending algorithms tocompute the PSD waveform display, compare it against upper and lowermask limits, and then provide the result as Pass or Fail. Performing this

measurement on Tektronix oscilloscopes does not require any additionalexternal instruments, such as spectral analyzers.

Oscilloscope-based Decode for M-PHYUniPro and LLIM-PHY design and test engineers need to monitor and debug UniPro/LLIprotocol interfaces to ensure reliable operation of the system. Manuallyinterpreting the protocol layer information using oscilloscope data istime consuming and prone to human error in a versatile UniPro and LLIprotocol standard. The Prodigy PGY-UPRO/PGY-LLI Protocol Decodesoftware offers extensive protocol decoding for M-PHY UniPro/LLI protocolspecifications respectively. With this software, the M-PHY design and testengineers can now automatically make accurate and reliable decodes ofmulti-lane data, acquired by a Tektronix DPO/DSA/MSO70000 oscilloscope,and significantly reduce the development and test cycle.The PGY-UPRO/PGY-LLI software automatically identifies all gears andsignalling schemes such as NRZ and PWM, and decodes the protocolframes of multi-lane traffic. Built up on oscilloscope serial trigger features,the software computes CRC and verifies for CRC errors in a UniPro/LLIprotocol packet. The software also links the decoded data to the electricalsignal in the oscilloscope display, enabling better correlation from protocol-to physical-layer data. Furthermore, the software generates comprehensiveand customizable reports, along with protocol data exportable in .TXT and.CSV formats. The software conforms to the M-PHY specification v1.0, theUniPro specification v1.4, and the LLI specification v0.8.

Oscilloscope-based decode for M-PHY 8b-10b.

Oscilloscope-based Decode for M-PHY 8b-10bThe SR-810B Serial Analysis application option enables Decode,Search, and Trigger on 8b/10b bus events for fast verification. AllTektronix MSO/DPO/DSA70000 Series oscilloscopes are equippedwith a dedicated trigger chip for triggering on 8b/10b data patterns inhigh-speed serial signals up to 6.25 Gb/s. Installed as part of TekScopefirmware, this software ensures finding even rare events. Furthermore, theDPO/DSA/MSO70000 Series oscilloscopes with PTD software supportseveral 8b10b data values for triggering.A very unique feature of the SR-810B option and perhaps the most powerfuldebugging tool is the capability to trigger on 8b/10b code errors. No serialtrigger would be able to trigger on all possible character errors, disparityerrors, or losses of byte synchronization, but the Tektronix 8b/10b serialtrigger allows triggering on common errors such as disparity or charactererrors.
