PCIe PLL BW Transmitter Test Application Help 6
Welcome
The PCIe PLL BW Rx application performs the test as per the PCI Express Base Specification Revision 5.0.
Welcome
Figure 1: TekRxTest - PCIe PLL BW Rx application
PCIe PLL Bandwidth and Peaking test is accomplished by connecting the output of BERT PPG (which can produce specific PCIe PLL
BW test patterns) to the input of the DUT through a specialized set of fixtures and cables. The BERT can be programmed to add different
amounts of sinusoidal jitter at the configured SJ tones to a reference clock waveform. Output of the DUT is connected to the RT Scope to
measure how much SJ passes through the DUT's Tx PLL for a certain SJ tone. Upon performing the process across multiple tones gives
us the PLL frequency response indicating the PLL Bandwidth and peaking.
Key features and benefits
• SJ Amplitude Calibration and PLL BW test comes as a part of the receiver solution.
• Jointly with Anritsu BERT MP1900A series, the solution provides the tools and flexibility required to observe real-time performance for
PLL BW devices for PCIe Gen3, Gen4, and Gen5
• Reliable and accurate results reduce the test execution time and minimize the skillset required to perform calibration and testing.
• Detailed reports are at one’s disposal for the calibration and test modules.
