13. May 16, 200013 Interoperability Testing w Co-existence with USB 1.1 devices w Virtually same – All transfer types – 5 hubs deep with 5 meter cables (i.e. Tier 6) – Mix of speeds w Test devices at both Full and High Speeds Root HS Hub DUT HS Hub Other Devices Other Devices FS Hub HS Hub

14. May 16, 200014 Similarities – Test Fixtures w Current w Inrush w Drop w Droop w Full/Low Speed Signal Quality

15. May 16, 200015 Differences w Electricals – Signal Quality w Time Domain Reflectometer (TDR) w Platform Testing w More Extensive Hub Testing – Transaction Translator

16. May 16, 200016 Differences in Electricals w 480 MHz = 40x Frequency – Smaller margin for error! w Have the process and tools defined early – Oscilloscope characteristics – Tools to acquire data from scope to create eye patterns – Test modes u Used to measure, capture eye pattern u Device independent way to test devices

17. May 16, 200017 Signal Quality w USB 2.0 spec defines required eye pattern at internal/external connectors – 6 Patterns - Templates u 4 correspond to external connectors (TP2 & TP3) u 2 correspond to internal connectors (TP1 & TP4) – Rise / Fall Times – Allowance for jitter – Overshoot / undershoot w Testing will be at external connectors – New test fixture for high speed signal quality

26. May 16, 200026 Transaction Translator w What is a Transaction Translator? – Component of the hub that handles data transfers to/from full and low speed downstream devices w When is it used? – Active when hub is configured at high speed and full and/or low speed devices connected downstream u Buffers data transfers u Finite space u 2 kind of buffers u 1 TT per hub OR 1 TT per port

28. May 16, 200028 Transaction Translator w How will we test – Devices & hubs of mixed speeds below hub – Set of rigorous tests to test TT using low/full speed device u Perform loopback u Both periodic & non-periodic transfers (actually all transfer types) u Check for isochrony hiccups, data integrity, etc.

29. May 16, 200029 Transaction Translator w TT Internals – Separate buffers for start/complete split (periodic) transfers – Data sent “just in time” to minimize buffer space – Minimum 2 buffers for non-periodic transfers Start-split FIFO Complete-split FIFO StartHandlerStartHandlerCompleteHandlerCompleteHandler Full/LowHandlerFull/LowHandler TT Microframe Pipeline for Periodic Split Transactions
