6–8 Chapter 6: Stratix IV GX Transceiver Signal Integrity Demonstration

Running the Demonstration Application and Test Designs

Transceiver Signal Integrity Development Kit, December 2011 Altera Corporation

Stratix IV GX Edition User Guide

Reverse serial (Pre CDR)— Configures the transceiver channel in reverse serial (Pre

CDR) mode. The received serial data input is looped to the transmit buffer before it

passes through the RX CDR. Data checkers are not available for this option.

EyeQ Tab

This tab is only available when signal_integrity_demo3.sof is loaded. The options set

the phase step to move the sampling point of the recovered data. For more

information about this feature, refer to “EyeQ” in the Stratix IV Dynamic

Reconfiguration chapter in volume 2 of the Stratix IV Device Handbook.

The following EyeQ features can be used in channels configured up to 6 Gbps:

Manual— Sets the phase step from 0 to 31. Once the GUI and the hardware computes

3*10E12 bits, the GUI displays the bit error rate (BER) for the phase step, plots the

value, and records the BER information for each phase step in a .csv format. The

block<block number>stats.csv file is saved in the same folder from which the

application is launched.

Automatic— Automatically sequences through the phase steps 0-31, plots the value,

and records the BER information for each phase step in a .csv format.

1 For proper GUI operation, close all the .csv files previously created by the GUI before

launching the GUI.

To estimate the eye opening, use the following equation:

Eye opening (as a % of unit interval) = N * 1/32 * 100 +/- 3%,

where N is the number of phase steps with no errors.
