Test pattern generator for 10G

[KMANO3]

Hi,

we developed custom board based on Intel Xeon D-1559 processor. It has 2 ports of 10G Base KR - SFP+ ports on the board. we are now performing electrical validation of these two ports using pre-compliance scope software. Kindly suggest how do we generate the below test patterns

1. How to generate 8 ZEROS and 8 ONES Pattern?
2. How to generate PRBS31 Pattern?
3. How to put PHY into a Loopback for RX Testing on both ports
4. How to gain access to 10G PHY TX registers to tune emphasis values in case failures are encountered on TX side?
5. How to gain access to 10G PHY RX registers to tune EQ values in case failures are encountered during RX testing?

Request your support for the same

Hi, Thanks for your response

We have downloaded the files and couldn't see any options for generating test patterns that are required for 10G Base KR validation. Is there any PHY tune tools available for 10G Base KR? if yes kindly share it

Hello, @KMANO3:

Thanks for your reply.

Could you please confirm that the affected design has implemented the requirements of the SFP+ Implementation? You can find this information in Figure 9-2, on page 191 of the Grangeville with Intel Xeon Processor D 1500 Product Family Platform Design Guide (PDG) document # 543448.
