DPO-MSO70000 Option DPHY12 and DPHY21, MSO6/6B 6-CMDPHY12 and 6-CMDPHY21

D-PHY or MIPI Display Phy is a standardized physical layer interface for connecting the Camera/Display to the Processor. This interface is predominantly used in mobile devices, infotainment systems and biometric sensors. This is a unidirectional bus with an explicit clock, up to 4 data lanes and consists of High Speed mode and Low Power mode. The High Speed mode is for fast data transfer and Low Power mode is for power saving to extend the battery life. The data flow in a display interface is from processor to the display device and from camera to the processor in the camera interface. The MIPI D-PHY specification testing is done based on the Compliance Test Specification (CTS) and requires a board with dynamic switching of termination between Low Power state and High Speed mode.

The Tektronix TekExpress^® D-PHY application offers a complete physical layer test solution for transmitter conformance and characterization as defined in the MIPI D-PHY version 1.2 and version 2.1 specification. The automated test solution along with 70000 C/DX/SX or a 6 Series MSO instruments, provides an easy way to test, debug and characterize the electrical and timing measurements of D-PHY data links.

Single-button fully automated D-PHY testing

The Tektronix TekExpress D-PHY application runs on 6 Series and 6 Series B MSO with Option 6-WIN installed (Windows 10 operating system) and DPO/MSO 70000 DX/SX Series Oscilloscope. The close integration of the oscilloscope and test software provides an automated, simple, and efficient way to test D-PHY transmitter interfaces and devices consistent to the requirements of the D-PHY Conformance Test Specification version 2.1.

Measurement setup and test execution is simple with the D-PHY software. The intuitive Graphical User Interface (GUI) is laid out to represent the workflow from setup through testing, letting you focus on design and debug instead of setting up the measurements.

D PHY EN US 61W 61487 6 — A well-designed workflow-based user interface steps you through test setup and execution.

Simply select tests from the menu for HS, LP, and HS-LP groups as per specifications.

You can view the schematic of the selected test with a push of a button. You can also display a test connection diagram to avoid setup errors.

Pass/Fail report

The report tab provides a view of the complete test results, pass or fail status, test margin, and images supporting the test results, for each lane of the DUT.

TDP7700/P7700 series TriMode probes for MIPI D-PHY TX measurements

MIPI D-PHY applications have special probing requirements due to the different signal measurement sources in High Speed and Low Power modes. In High Speed mode, D-PHY signals operate in terminated mode with differential signaling. In Low Power mode, D-PHY signals operate in unterminated mode with single-ended signals. Therefore, MIPI D-PHY has two key probing requirements:

Provide a high impedance to minimize signal loading
Need both Differential and single-ended mode probing

The Tektronix TDP7700/P7700 Series TriMode probes are designed to meet this measurement challenge. The TDP7700/P7700 work with full AC calibration of the probe and tip's signal path, to provide the highest probe fidelity available for real-time oscilloscopes. The innovative new probe design uses SiGe technology to provide the bandwidth and fidelity needed today and in the future.

A key TDP7700/P7700 connectivity innovation is using solder-down probe tips with the probe's input buffer mounted only a few millimeters from the tip. This approach provides unmatched usability for connecting to MIPI D-PHY circuits.

Other TDP7700/P7700 Series probe characteristics include:

An active buffer amplifier on the probe tips with the probe input only 3.2 mm from the buffer.
Excellent step response and low insertion loss up to 20 GHz on P7720
Low-DUT loading with 100 kΩ (DC) and 0.4 pF (AC) performance
High Common-Mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR)
Low noise
