LFPS – SCD1 & SCD2 – tRepeat Modulation

• tRepeat is modulated to express 0

(short) and 1 (long)

• SCD1 0010

SCD2 1101

• LSb first

• SCD1.LFPS (4’b0100), and

SCD2.LFPS (4’b1011)

• SuperSpeed+ identity check

1. Measure EH for all three CLBs at -3.1dB de-emphasis (all impairments set to nominal)

2. Select the CLB where EH is closest to 70mV

3. Measure EW vs. de-emphasis and select the de-emphasis value which gives an EW value

as close as possible to 48ps. If necessary change SJ to adjust EW

4. Adjust Vdiff for 70mV EH

New Compliance MethodologyChannel MetricsThere are three signal integrity impairments that impact the end-to-end link

performance: attenuation, reflection and crosstalk.

Reference: USB-IF Technical White Papers http://www.usb.org/developers/docs/whitepapers/

“Methodology Used to Determine SuperSpeed USB 10 Gbps (USB 3.1) - Gen2 Channel and Cable Assembly High Speed Compliance”

The channel metrics represents these three

impairments:

• Insertion loss fit at Nyquist frequency (ILfitatNq)

• Integrated multi-reflection (IMR)

• Integrated crosstalk (IXT)

– Uses the Type-C connector

– Channel aggregation: two independent 20Gbps links into one logical

40Gbps link

– Supports other standards through ALT mode

– Cost competitive vs mult—chip, discrete, mux solutions

Thunderbolt 3 Overview

43

– PHY testing approach will be similar to Thunderbolt 2

– Tx, Rx, and Return Loss

– Today, customers with Thunderbolt DUTs need to work with their

Intel PAE

– Keysight can help with pre-compliance testing
