ANALYSIS TYPE / 05
PCIe · USB · DDR4/5 · equalisation
Overview
Validating PCIe, USB 3.x, HDMI, DDR4/5, and custom SerDes channels against specification-defined eye masks and jitter budgets — including full equalisation optimisation and compliance margin reporting.
Deliverables
Key Aspects
Mapping simulation results to PCIe, USB, HDMI, SATA, and custom SerDes compliance test points and mask definitions for pre-silicon channel sign-off.
Performing full DDR4 and DDR5 timing analysis including tDQSQ, tQH, read/write levelling, and fly-by topology validation across voltage and temperature corners.
Quantifying design margin above specification limits and identifying which channel segments consume the most margin budget for targeted improvement.
Validating boards carrying multiple high-speed protocols — ensuring each interface achieves compliance simultaneously without inter-protocol interference.
