©LeCroy Corporation5) When the test completes, generate a report. Observe the results for PHY-01 in the report.Observable Results:• PHY-01a - Mean Unit Interval measured between 666.4333ps (min) to 670.2333ps (max) (for productsrunning at 1.5Gb/s)• PHY-01b - Mean Unit Interval measured between 333.2167ps (min) to 335.1167ps (max) (for productsrunning at 3.0Gb/s)• PHY-01c - Mean Unit Interval measured between 166.6083ps (min) to 167.5583ps (max) (for productsrunning at 6.0Gb/s)Possible Problems:The following is applicable to all PHY and TSG tests:If the product under test (PUT) supports BIST with T, A and S but drops out of BIST T when disconnected,then it will be necessary to use two SATA test fixture adapters (or equivalent) and four SMA cables to connect thePUT to the SASTracer/Trainer to put it into BIST T and then remove one of the SMA cables from the PUTtransmitting side of the SATA test fixture at the SASTracer/Trainer and connect it to the oscilloscope; then do thesame for the other SMA cable. The assumption is that the product will remain in BIST T if this procedure isfollowed.If the product does not support BIST T but does support BIST L, it will be necessary to use either a signalgenerator or another product that does support BIST T as a source of the pattern; and place the product under test inBIST L (loopback) mode, and loop the pattern through it. If the product under test does not support disconnectwithout dropping out of BIST L, then it will be necessary to use two SATA test fixtures (or equivalent) and fourSMA cables to connect the PUT to the SASTracer/Trainer to put it into BIST L and then remove one of the SMAcables from the PUT transmitting side of the SATA test fixture at the SAS Tracer/Trainer and connect it to theoscilloscope; then do the same for the other SMA cable; and also remove first SMA cable from the PUT receivingside of the SATA test fixture connected to the SASTracer/Trainer and connect it to the matching SMA connector onthe SATA test fixture connected to the device sourcing the pattern; then do the same for the last SMA cableconnected to the SAS Tracer/Trainer.The user is encouraged to always make sure that the correct pattern is being produced. The SATA powercable can sometimes be sensitive to small shifts causing the power to be reset so that the product will no longer betransmitting the power. Therefore, the user should be careful to avoid this when switching connections.LeCroy Corporation 12 SATA PHY, TSG, OOB LeCroy MOI rev 1.4 version 1.0
