This paper describes a low-cost extension module used to extend an FPGA-based development platform that enables digital testing up to 40Gbps. This platform typically operates up to 13.1Gbps and can be applied to test current main-stream I/O standards such as PCIE3.0 (8Gbps), USB3.1 (10Gbps) and Thunderbolt (10Gbps). The high bandwidth of an ultra-high-speed test module allows testing capability for future high-speed standards such as PCIE4.0 (32Gbps) and 40G Ethernet. An FPGA main board is built and programmed to control this plugin module for testing at across a wide range of data-rates. Using such "state of the art" FPGAs and careful design strategy of an economical FR4 plugin board, the data rate is extended to 40Gbps. This economical plugin module is implemented by multiplexing four high-speed channels from the FPGA into a single 40Gbps serial bit stream. |
