The new Tektronix real-time instrument based OIF-CEI-56G-VSR/MR/LR, OIF-CEI-112G-VSR, IEEE: 802.3bs (200GAUI-4 and 400GAUI-8), 802.3cd (CR4, KR4), 802.3ckTM (100GAUI-1, 200GAUI-2, and 400GAUI-4), and 802.3ckTM (100GCR-1, 200GCR-2, and 400GCR-4) Transmitter Characterization automation system provides turnkey testing and debugging of the industry's most common 400G PAMJET electrical interfaces. The silicon designers need to perform the 400G based electrical validation of their silicon; the system designers need to perform the 400G based electrical validation.
Key Features
- Offers streamlined and fully automated transmitter characterization of OIF-CEI-56G-VSR/MR/LR, OIF-CEI-112G-VSR, and IEEE: 802.3bs (200GAUI-4 and 400GAUI-8), 802.3cd (CR4, KR4), 802.3ckTM (100GAUI-1, 200GAUI-2, and 400GAUI-4), and 802.3ckTM (100GCR-1, 200GCR-2, and 400GCR-4) electrical transmitter specifications.
- Extends PAMJET software package (PAMJET software package) for in-depth analysis and debug of fully automated conformance test solution.
Applications
- Validation of OIF-CEI-56G-VSR/MR/LR, OIF-CEI-112G-VSR, and IEEE-802.3bs/cd standards
- Measurements of electrical transmitter :
- 802.3ckTM Electrical 100 Gb/s Signaling for 100GAUI-1, 200GAUI-2, and 400GAUI-4.
- 802.3ckTM (100GCR-1, 200GCR-2, and 400GCR-4)
OIF-CEI-56G-VSR/MR/LR, OIF-CEI-112G-VSR, IEEE-802.3bs/cd, IEEE-802.3cK AUI and CR fully automated electrical transmitter real-time oscilloscope measurements
This application package is designed for a 50 GHz or higher, 70K SX instrument pair. For 100Gb/s/lane and faster the needed oscilloscope bandwidth ≥ 59 GHz 70k XS instrument pair is required; for 56 GBd and faster 70 GHz instrument will deliver the best results. The software loads the required roll-off filters with appropriate bandwidth. The low noise level of the ATI architecture serves the key signal-to-noise and distortion ratio measurements, which are attained with margin on the 70K SX systems. The solution is also available on non-70K SX systems, such as 33 GHz, higher 70K DX, and MSO instruments with an understanding that these are for debug only and not for the specification level conformance validation.

User-defined mode
In user-defined mode, users can configure Global parameters, test specific parameters, measurement repeat parameters, and notification parameters. This supports the characterization of measurements rather than developing custom lab setups, reducing the testing time and complexity.
De-embedding filters help in compensating for any loss that happens due to cables/accessories present between specification mentioned test point to analog channel of oscilloscope. SDLA can be used for creating de-embedding filter files.

Compliance testing to IEEE 802.3bs, 802.3cd, and 802.3ck Standards or OIF Standards for 400G at PAMJET, 26+ GBd /50Gb/s, and 53+ GBd /100Gb/s per lane requires a minimum of 2-stack SX oscilloscopes with Bandwidth ≥50 GHz (50 to approx 70Gb/s per lane) and 59 GHz (100Gb/s per lane and higher). When Tektronix oscilloscopes with lower bandwidth support the option, they might be used for troubleshooting.
