Stratix® V GX Transceiver Signal Integrity Development Kit

The Stratix® V GX Transceiver Signal Integrity (SI) Development Kit provides a platform for electrical compliance testing and interoperability analysis. The accessibility to multiple channels allows for real-world analysis as implemented in the system with transceiver channels available through SMA and popular backplane connectors.

  • Overview

You can use this development kit to:

  • Evaluate transceiver link performance from 600 Mbps to 12.5 Gbps.
  • Generate and check pseudo-random binary sequence (PRBS) patterns via a simple to use GUI (does not require the Quartus® Prime software).
  • Access advanced equalization to fine tune link settings for optimal bit error ratio (BER).
  • Perform jitter analysis.
  • Verify physical medium attachment (PMA) compliance to 10GbE, 10GBASE-KR, PCI Express (PCIe) (1.0, 2.0, and 3.0), Serial RapidIO, Gigabit Ethernet, 10-Gigabit Ethernet XAUI, Common Electrical I/O (CEI) 6G, CEI-11G, high-definition serial digital interface (HD-SDI), Interlaken, and other major standards.
  • Use the built-in high speed backplane connectors to evaluate custom backplane performance and evaluate link BER.
