Agilent announces industry’s first MIPI M-PHY transmitter compliance test software

SANTA CLARA, USA: Agilent Technologies Inc. announced the industry’s first MIPI M-PHY compliance test software package for transmitter validation.

Agilent’s U7249A software, designed to run on the company’s Infiniium 90000 Series oscilloscopes, provides a wide range of tests to meet the physical-layer requirements of the MIPI Alliance’s M-PHY Specification v1.00 and M-PHY Conformance Test Suite v0.65. The software supports M-PHY speeds of up to 5.8 Gbps and will enable R&D design teams to address their start-up debug and validation needs.

“Collaboration with customers developing early M-PHY designs has enabled us to provide this industry-first package,” said Roland Scherzinger, Agilent’s MIPI program manager. “Working closely with the MIPI workgroups and sharing our high-speed testing experience with them, helps ensure robust M-PHY testability.”

The new compliance test software provides design and validation engineers with a fast, easy way to validate and debug embedded M-PHY data links.
