Key Features

• Covers OIF-CEI 28G-VSR Host and 28G-SR from 18 to 29 GBaud

• Covers IEEE 802.3 CAUI-4 host and module tests in advanced mode

• Support a wide range of Keysight equipment (DCA sampling scopes, clock recovery devices, M8020A and M8040A BER Testers)

• Guided setup, automated stress signal calibration and compliance measurement for host compliance tests

Description

The M809228XA receiver test plug-in for M8070B is designed to assist and simplify the stress signal calibration used for testing the inputs of OIF-CEI CEI-28G-SR and 28G-VSR host compliance interfaces. The OIF-CEI 3.1 standard option is available within the M8070B user interface menu with the flexibility of choosing either compliance or debug mode. It reduces user interaction to a minimum and performs all required calibration routines and compliance testing automatically by remote controlling all required instruments. When a user is required to perform setup changes, the user is guided by diagram as well as text to minimize errors.

Covered Calibrations and Tests  CEI-28G-Very Short Reach (VSR) Interface

The CEI 28G-VSR is a high-speed chip-to-module electrical interface with low voltage logic. It is applicable for data lane(s) that supports the bit rates from 19.60 to 28.10 Gsym/s using NRZ coding over printed circuit boards. The transmission range has a minimum value of 100 mm for host PCB trace plus one connector and has a minimum value of 50 mm PCB trace module. In 28G-VSR interface, the electrical interface connections are point-to-point in balanced differential pairs. It defines the characteristics required to communicate between CEI-28G-VSR transmitter and a CEI-28G-VSR receiver using copper signal traces on a printed circuit board.

For more details, refer to “Implementation Agreement OIF-CEI-03.1”-Clause 13 CEI 28G -Very Short Reach (VSR) Interface”.

Keysight M809228XA OIF-CEI 28G VSR/ SR Compliance Receiver Test Plugin provides the following calibrations and tests for 28G-VSR Host compliance.

All calibration steps are automated. The test plugin prompts the user whenever user interaction is required for connecting or modifying the test setup. Detailed connection diagrams and instructions are provided by the test application.

CEI-28G-Short Reach (SR) Interface

The CEI 28G-SR is a high-speed electrical interface with low voltage logic. It is applicable for data lane(s) that support the bit rates from 19.90 to 28.05 Gsym/s using NRZ coding over printed circuit boards. The transmission range is from 0 to 300 mm up to one connector and it’s signaling is unidirectional. 

In 28G-SR interface, the electrical interface connections are point to point in balanced differential pairs. Its electrical implementation agreements are based on loss and jitter budget. It defines the characteristics required to communicate between CEI-28G-SR transmitter and a CEI-28G-SR receiver using copper signal traces on a printed circuit board.
