8.2.4.4.6.1. Eye Diagram

8.2.4.4.6.1.1. Information

Read out BER eye-measurement information such as the vertical and horizontal bathtub curve information on a 25G serdes. This must be called after “PP_EYEMEASURE” has run to return valid results. Use “get” to see the status of the data gathering process.

Corresponding low-level API class: PP_EYEINFO

8.2.4.4.6.1.2. Bit Error Rate

Obtain BER estimations of an eye diagram.

Corresponding low-level API class: PP_EYEBER

# Eye Diagram Bit Error Rate
resp = await port.serdes[0].eye_diagram.ber.get()
resp.eye_ber_estimation

8.2.4.4.6.1.3. Dwell Bits

Min and max dwell bits for an eye capture.

Corresponding low-level API class: PP_EYEDWELLBITS

# Eye Diagram Dwell Bits
resp = await port.serdes[0].eye_diagram.dwell_bits.get()
resp.max_dwell_bit_count
resp.min_dwell_bit_count

8.2.4.4.6.1.4. Measure

Start/stop a new BER eye-measure on a 25G serdes. Use “get” to see the status of the data gathering process.

Corresponding low-level API class: PP_EYEMEASURE

# Eye Diagram Measure
resp = await port.serdes[0].eye_diagram.measure.get()
resp.status

8.2.4.4.6.1.5. Resolution

Set or get the resolution used for the next BER eye-measurement.

Corresponding low-level API class: PP_EYERESOLUTION

# Eye Diagram Resolution
resp = await port.serdes[0].eye_diagram.resolution.get()
resp.x_resolution
resp.y_resolution

8.2.4.4.6.1.6. Data Columns

Read a single column of a measured BER eye on a 25G serdes. Every readout also returns the resolution (x,y) and the number of valid columns (used to facilitate reading out the eye while it is being measured).

Note

The columns of the eye-data will be measured in the order: xres-1, xres-2, xres-3, … 0. The values show the number of bit errors measured out of a total of 1M bits at each of the individual sampling points (x=timeaxis, y = 0/1 threshold).

Corresponding low-level API class: PP_EYEREAD

# Eye Diagram Data Columns
resp = await port.serdes[0].eye_diagram.read_column[0].get()
resp.valid_column_count
resp.values
resp.x_resolution
resp.y_resolution
