I3C Protocol Trigger & Decode Software

I3C Protocol Decode Software

I3C Protocol Decode Software offers protocol decoding as specified in the I3C specification. PGY-I3C-PD Protocol decode software runs in Tektronix Oscilloscope and provides protocol decode at the click of a button. This allows engineers quickly check for I3C compliance and flexibility to debug the failure. In addition to this engineers can decode the command and response of I3C to debug the communication. PGY-I3C-PD takes advantage of digital channels of MSO and provides the decoding of I3C data lines.

I3C Protocol Trigger & Decode Software

I3C interface would make significant changes to the mode in which sensors are interfaced to host processors in mobile and automotive applications PGY-I3C-PD Protocol Trigger & Decode Software enables engineers to quickly decode the protocol-intensive I3C signals. It enables easy debugging of I3C Protocol issues by triggering specific I3C Protocol packets and content and decoding the acquired waveform. PGY-I3C-PD provides industry-first protocol decode capabilities in Tektronix Windows oscilloscope.

PGY-I3C-PD Software runs inside Tektronix to make oscilloscopes such as DPO/MSO5000, DPO7000, and DPO/DSA/MSO70000 oscilloscope series. PGY-I3C-PD utilizes the hardware-based real-time I3C protocol aware trigger, and protocol analysis of long acquisition record length up to 125MB to provide superior I3CProtocol Analysis results at the press of a button.

Easy I3C Protocol Test Setup and Debug

PGY-I3C-PD Software installed in Tektronix oscilloscopes can be launched by clicking on PGY-I3C-PD icon in oscilloscope desktop folder. Now user has simultaneous view and control to oscilloscope as well as PGY-I3C-PD Software. User can analyze I3C in single acquisition mode, Repetitive mode and as well as No Acq mode. In No Acq Mode, I3C software analyses already captured I3C signal that is present in the acquisition memory of the oscilloscope.

Powerful I3C Protocol Aware Hardware-Based Real-Time Trigger

Simple easy-to-use I3C protocol-aware trigger features allow engineers to capture I3C signals at specific events in the I3C interface. The trigger can be set for different commands of SDR_Broadcast, SDR_Direct, and SDR_message. I3C software provides the flexibility to select a combination of any command from any three frame types. This feature can be used on DPO7000, DPO/MSO70000 oscilloscope series.

Protocol View

I3C protocol View
​PGY-I3C-PD Software installed in Tektronix oscilloscopes can be launched by clicking on the PGY-I3C-PD icon in the oscilloscope desktop folder. Now the user has simultaneous view and control of the oscilloscope as well as PGY-I3C-PD Software. Users can analyze I3C in single acquisition mode, Repetitive mode, and as well as No Acq mode. In No Acq Mode, I3C software analyses already captured the I3C signal that is present in the acquisition memory of the ​oscilloscope.
 

Protocol Analysis of I3C Signals

i3c_protocolDV

The detail view in I3C Protocol software allows the user to correlate protocol activity with physical layer waveform. The bus diagram in detail view shows protocol packet content. Decoded bit-level information is overlayed on the waveform to relate the packet-level information to the waveform.

Documentation of Protocol Analysis

PGY-I3C-PD I3C Protocol Trigger and decode software provides the flexibility of exporting the decode data in txt and CSV file format. Report Generation capability allows users to have different waveform images including the oscilloscope screenshot in pdf format report. Report header, comments, and test attributes can be added to the report.
