Keysight N5990A MIPI M-PHY Receiver Test User Guide 19
Introduction 1
Overview
The Keysight N5990A Test Automation software is an open and flexible
framework for automating electrical compliance tests for digital buses
such as PCI Express or USB. It is globally marketed and supported by
Keysight Technologies as N5990A.
The Keysight N5990A for MIPI (Mobile Industry Processor Interface)
M-PHY provides the automation of the MIPI M-PHY receiver testing for the
physical layer. The tests are implemented according to the requirements of
the “MIPI Alliance Conformance Test Suite for M-PHY Physical Layer” v3.1.
These tests are designed to determine if a product conforms to
specifications defined in the MIPI Alliance Specification for M-PHY, version
3.1. Additionally, Keysight offers some custom characterization tests to
provide more details on DUT behavior beyond the limits
The software supports automatic control of the J-BERT M8020A and the
J-BERT N4903 high-performance serial BERT (Bit Error Ratio Tester). It
calibrates the stress conditions and controls all test electronic equipment
for automated receiver tolerance tests. For UniPro and UFS Phy testing the
BERT equipment can be combined with the BIT-3000 DSGA to put the
DUT into UniPro Test Mode and retrieve the Frame and Error Counters.
Figures 1 to 4 show the examples of Receiver Test setups for J-BERT
M8020A (stand-alone), J-BERT DSGA, J-BERT N4903B
(stand-alone), and J-BERT DSGA system configurations.
