19 | Keysight | N5990A Test Automation Software Platform - Data Sheet Measurement Requirements HDMI, MHL Depending on the test (sink or source) and configuration (E4887A or AWG), acces - sories such as cable emulators, TPAs (test point access assemblies), transition time converters or bias tee kits are required. For details, contact Keysight. www.keysight.com/find/HDMI For HEAC tests the HEAC test board 81150AU-EHD is required. DisplayPort A W2641B test point access adaptor is required. For automated receiver jitter tolerance testing a suitable DisplayPort AUX channel controller is mandatory,and the DUT must support the register access indicated in CTS 1.2b, chapter 4. For the calibration of the receiver test setup, a receptacle fixture is needed: (1) BIT-1050-0000-0; receptacle test fixture kit (for Rx tests) or 1 x BIT- 1050-0001-0 cable test kit, see www.bitifeye.com . For the full list of accessories, contact Keysight. Computer bus test PCI Express To run the N5990A PCI Express receiver tests (Option 101), the DUT must support loopback mode. A CBB or CLB might be required to connect to the DUT. SATA The N5990A RSG/Rcvr tests require the far end retimed loopback mode (BIST-L). For the full equipment list, refer to the lat - est Keysight “method of implementation” (MOI) www.sata-io.org or www.keysight.com/find/sata USB 3.0/3.1 For BER measurements, the DUT shall support loopback. For automated testing the test automation software fully integrates the N4903B and M8020A J- BERT’s SER/FER analysis. For debugging purposes, reading out a DUT’s internal error is supported, too. www.keysight.com/find/USB MIPI D-PHY For fully automated receiver testing and frame error rate counting, access to the receiver registers is required. The N5990A supports both the PPI (PHY protocol interface) as well as an interface to customized register access tools. MIPI M-PHY For fully automated receiver testing and error rate counting, access to the receiver registers is required. For details and for the full list of accessories, contact Keysight. www.keysight.com/find/MIPI Consumer electronics and video test
