MIPI D-PHY Overview
The MIPI D-PHY debug utility provides MIPI D-PHY developers a way to perform typical compliance
measurements without being constrained by QualiPHY compliance parameters. This debug utility is used
alongside all the powerful oscilloscope features provided in LeCroy oscilloscopes to further analyze compliance
failures. Potential debug setup examples include:
Setting up tests to run on much more acquisitions than the QualiPHY compliance software permits.
Easily testing to compliance limits using LeCroy’s Pass/Fail testing and Tracks, Trends, and Histograms -
which can be created from any measured parameter.
When combined with the MIPI D-PHY, CSI and DSI Serial Decoders, the oscilloscope becomes the ultimate
MIPI D-PHY debugging machine.
The Main MIPI D-PHY Dialog
Access the MIPI D-PHY software option from Analysis → MIPI D-PHY on the menu bar.
The main MIPI D-PHY dialog is shown.
MIPI D-PHY Dialog Details
Use the following sections to work through areas of the main dialog.
Enable, Show Decode, Setup Acquisition
Enable
Marking the Enable checkbox enables the controls on the dialog.
Notice how MIPI D-PHY provides its own, unique table and set of test parameters.

Show Decode
Note: If you do not have the MIPI D-PHY Serial Decode Option (D PHY-D), you won't see the Show Decode
checkbox beneath the Enable checkbox. Marking this checkbox (when you have the option) shows annotations
on your waveforms.
Setup Acquisition
The Setup Acquisition button automatically makes the following settings. The settings are largely based on your
LP (Low Power) or HS (High Speed) mode selection on the Mode and Input Selection Area of the MIPI D-PHY
Dialog (on page 6).
SETUP ACQUISITION FOR LP LOW POWER MODE
Your channels are set to 200 mV/div, -600 mV offset, and a Qualified-Pattern trigger is applied to the signal for
capturing the ULPS sequence.
SETUP ACQUISITION FOR HS HIGH SPEED MODE
Your channels are set to 200 mV/div, -600 mV offset, and an Edge trigger is applied to the signal.
