Description

The Falcon G500C is an integrated UFS protocol analyzer and UniPro protocol analyzer that captures x2 bi-directional links as a “sniffer”. It supports up to UFS 4.0, UniPro 2.0, and MIPI M-PHY 5.0 HS-G5.

The Falcon G550C is an exerciser/analyzer; it is identical to the G500C protocol analyzer but is also a protocol exerciser that can generate link traffic on a x2 bi-directional link while simultaneously capturing the response traffic from the DUT. The Falcon G550C exerciser can execute the UniPro 2.0, UniPro 1.8 and JEDEC JESD224A UFS Compliance/Conformance Test Suites (CTS), and will have support for UFS 4.0 CTS testing.

The Falcon G500C-G4 is an integrated UFS protocol analyzer and UniPro protocol analyzer that captures x2 bi-directional links as a “sniffer”. It supports up to UFS 3.1, UniPro 1.8, and MIPI M-PHY 4.1 HS-G4.

The Falcon G550C-G4 is an exerciser/analyzer; it is identical to the G500C-G4 protocol analyzer but is also a protocol exerciser that can generate link traffic on a x2 bi-directional link while simultaneously capturing the response traffic from the DUT. The Falcon G550C-G4 exerciser can execute the UniPro 1.8 and JEDEC JESD224A UFS Compliance/Conformance Test Suites (CTS), and has support for UFS 3.1 CTS testing.

The Falcon C series is available with the following features:

• Smart Tune™ equalization optimizes signal acquisition at the analyzer to ensure error-free MPHY symbol capture. This is critical when the DUT has poor trace routing, or the cabling to the test fixture causes signal integrity or probing issues.
• Trace Validation™ is a patented Artificial intelligence (AI) tool that uses complex state machine logic to analyze traces algorithmically without user inference. It analyzes bi-directional UniPro and UFS traffic, performing protocol sequence and timing analysis and packet header and payload inspection.
• Events views displays raw UniPro symbols as packet events on the bus in a unique time-aligned display. UniPro Events view displays fillers, Prepare, SYNC, Hibern8, sleep, stall and other M-PHY level packets. UFS Events displays each individual UFS packet type separately. UniPro and UFS Events views presents a complete picture of all events and allows drill-down to the lowest level bytes.
• Compliance/Conformance Verification executes JEDEC and MIPI CTS test cases.
• Verify compliance of UFS devices with the UFSA UFS Compliance Test Matrix.
• Stimulus with full UniPro stack in HW allows host emulation and the creation of specific traffic on the link, and offers extensive error injection.
• Run Time Control stress testing controls the DUT and executes tests automatically. Stop after any number of loops or No Result Test Cases, then analyze the results with Trace Validation.
• Design custom test cases to introduce errors for corner case, margin, or stress testing.
• Streaming capture uses the full 40Gbs bandwidth of Thunderbolt 3 to store link traffic directly to disk in real time.
