At DAC 2023, OPENEDGES Technology will be in Booth 1354 demonstrating a beta version of its PHY test and analysis software. In the live demo, the software will be connected to a 12-nm LPDDR54 test platform.

The newly developed test and analysis GUI, code-named PHY Vision, serves as a comprehensive cockpit for visualizing and optimizing the performance of the DDR PHY. It offers a range of training options to optimize data eye diagrams, including running READ/WRITE eye shmoos, and provides extensive controls to high-speed I/Os and analog circuits. PHY Vision also incorporates utility features to build firmware within its interface, making it easy for test engineers to select firmware versions to load onto the system to perform characterization tests, bit-error-rate tests, eye shmoos, and performance tuning.

The PHY Vision test and analysis interface aims to streamline the workflow for test and validation engineers, providing important insights to the dynamic operation of OPENEDGES’ DDR PHYs.
