RX Eye Scan utility for GTX transceivers on 7-series FPGAs.
Introduction:
A RX eye scan provides a mechanism to validate the receiver's eye margin after the
transceiver's equalizer in high-speed digital transmission lines.
The principle of operation of an eye scan is the comparison between the data sampled
at the nominal center of the eye, and the data sampled at an offset (horizontal and
vertical) from the said nominal center.
A miscomparison between the nominal data and the offset data yields a bit error, and
the Bit Error Rate (BER) is the ratio of bit errors to the total number of samples
compared. A 2-D statistical eye can be obtained by determining the BER at multiple
offset coordinates (horizontal, vertical) in a given 2-D range. Each offset coordinate
has two components: phase offset (horizontal), and voltage offset (vertical).
The 7-series FPGAs' transceivers include hardware that allows us to perfom parallel
sampling on the same signal: one at the nominal center, and one with certain offset.
The hardware consists on two separate samplers, one which signal can be offset.
Also, a sample counter, that keeps track of the number of samples compared at a given
offset; as well as an error counter that tracks the miscomparisons detected. These two
counters are accessible via the transceiver's Dynamic Reconfiguration Port (DRP).
Finally, a state machine, configurable through the DRP, controls the BER measurement
at a given offset.
The second sampler path can apply both a phase and a voltage offset to the signal.
Thanks to this parallel sampler, one may perform eye scan measurements without
affecting the link's integrity (i.e. the nominal sampled data remains untouched).
Important considerations:
- This tool only supports 7-Series FPGAs (GTX only).
- The tool needs the NI's JESD core IP and MPM driver to access the DRP of the GTs.
- Currently, a .pes (Python Eye Scan) custom binary file is generated, which includes
metadata and the sample/error counters results at each offset for the scanned GT(s).
This file is further processed and visualized with an internal set of LabVIEW VIs.
Using the Eye Scan tool:
1. Determine the transceiver(s) configuration.
Some parameters are defined with the GT instantiation in the FPGA. These need to
be known by the Eye Scan tool in order to function properly:
Equalization mode.
Low-Power Mode (LPM) or Decision Feedback Equalization (DFE).
Please refer to UG476 (p. 184) for further details.
Valid values for this tool: 'LMP' or 'DFE'.
RXOUT_DIV.
This attribute controls the setting for the RX serial clock divider.
Please refer to UG476 (p. 213) for further details.
Valid values for this tool: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16.
RX_INT_DATAWIDTH.
Width of valid data on Rdata and Sdata buses is RX fabric data width.
Please refer to UG476 (p. 213) for further details.
Valid values for this tool: 16, 20, 32, 40.
2. Determine the Eye Scan measurement configuration.
The eye scan measurement's confidence/resolution depends on some parameters,
depending upon their values, the time to perform the scan will change:
Prescale.
Controls the prescaling of the sample count to keep both sample count and
error count in reasonable precision within the 16-bit register range.
The higher the prescale value, the more time the eye scan takes, but also
the lower BER floor (i.e. best eye margin statistics).
Please refer to UG476 (p. 214) for further details.
Valid values for this tool: 0 to 31.
Horizontal range.
Defines the phase offset limits and step that the tool will use to iterate
in the horizontal axis during the measurement.
Valid range is -32 to 32 (full range), corresponding to -0.5 UI to 0.5 UI
Definition example: {'start':-32 , 'stop':32 , 'step': 1}
Vertical range.
Defines the voltage offset limits and step that the tool will use to iterate
in the vertical axis during the measurement.
Valid range is -127 to 127 (full range), corresponding to 0.39 %
increments.
Definition example: {'start':-127, 'stop':127, 'step': 2}
3. Determine which GT(s) will be scanned.
The tool supports single scan and parallel multi-lane scan. The previous GT
configuration (from 1), and the measurement configuration (from 2) applies
for all the GTs scanned in a single run. Thus, if one requires a different scan
per GT, a EyeScanTool object must be created each time with different parameters.
The tool receives a 1-D array, which each element must be a valid GT number that
the NI JESD core has access to.
Examples: [0] or [0, 1] or [0, 1, 2, 3].
4. Obtain a JESD core MPM object.
The Eye Scan tool relies on the JESD core IP in the FPGA to talk to the GTs
through their DRP, thus a MPM driver object for this core must be available
upon creation of the EyeScanTool object.
Please refer to nijesdcore.py for further documentation.
5. Create an Eye Scan tool MPM object.
Once the configuration is defined and a MPM JESD core object is available, one
may proceed to create and initialize an EyeScanTool object.
The genrated .pes file will be saved to the location given by the SAVE_DIR, which
default value is set to a folder named "eyescan" in the home directory.
One may change the save location by including the SAVE_DIR attribute at init.
Assuming the EyeScanTool class has been imported to the calling file, here is
an object creation example:
args = {'rxout_div': 2, 'rx_int_datawidth': 20, 'eq_mode': 'LPM', 'prescale': 1,
'SAVE_DIR': "/home/root/my_dir/"}
eyescan_tool = EyeScanTool(jesdcore=jesdcore_object,
slot_idx=0,
**args)
6. Perform the Eye Scan measurement!
With the EyeScanTool object created and initialized, one may proceed to start
the measurement by calling the function eyescan_full_scan(...).
This function receives the array of GTs to scan, the horizontal range, and the
vertical range. It returns the name of the PES file (automatically generated).
Here is an example on how to start the scan:
scan_lanes = [0, 1, 2, 3]
hor_range = {'start':-32 , 'stop':32 , 'step': 2}
ver_range = {'start':-127, 'stop':127, 'step': 2}
pes_file_name = eyescan_tool.eyescan_full_scan(scan_lanes, hor_range, ver_range)
7. Process and visualize the PES file.
The resulting .pes binary file must be manually copied to a known location for
LabVIEW access (i.e. a Windows machine running LV).
Currently, two different file post-processing methods are supported:
Single lane full scans.
When only one lane is measured (e.g. scan_lanes = [0]), it is recommended to
use the Single-Lane VI to process/visualize the results.
Multiple lane full scans.
When multiple lanes are measured (e.g. scan_lanes = [0, 1, 2, 3]), it is
recommended to use the Multi-Lane VI to process/visualize the results.
These VIs are for NI/Ettus internal use only. For further details, please contact
Humberto Jimenez at humberto.jimenez@ni.com.
Theory of operation:
As explained in the introductory section, the main two elements to perform a rx
margin analysis are a sample counter and an error counter. These two are provided
by the GT instantiation at the FPGA. This tools implements the algorithm to control
the Eye Scan measurement state machine for the given GT(s) and retreive the counts.
This task is repetead over and over again through the vertical and horizontal ranges
specified by the user. The results for each offset coordinate are stored in a custom
binary file (.pes) that is then processed (BER calculation) and visualized.
When a EyeScanTool object is created (i.e. __init__ is called), the "fixed"
configuration parameters for the GT(s) instantiation is defined. Also, the provided
JESD core object is verified to make sure it contains the method implementations to
access the Dynamic Reconfiguration Port (DRP) of the desired GT(s).
With an EyeScanTool object created and initialized, the user only needs to call the
eyescan_full_scan(...) method; which handles the measurement configuration, the binary
file creation, the GT(s) configuration, and the measurement sweep across the ranges.
Future work ideas:
1. Generate the eye scan results in human-readable fashion (i.e. ascii encoded
instead of binary data).
2. Add Bit Error Rate (BER) calculation for each offset within the tool, instead of
just spitting samples and errors counters.
3. Develop a open-source data visualization tool to enable non-LabVIEW users to
process and visualize the eye scan results (pes file).
