HyperLynx – Verifying Serial Channels for Protocol Compliance

23/02/2024

HyperLynx SerDes Compliance Analysis is the next generation in serial link compliance analysis – automatically verifying serial channels for compliance with over 200 different protocols and variants. HyperLynx lets you verify all the serial channels in your design, automatically.

What is Compliance Analysis and why is it important?

Simulating serial link performance with vendor IBIS-AMI models is difficult. SerDes Compliance Analysis focuses on the serial channel (interconnect) itself, ensuring it meets the requirements of the associated standard – a process that is much more reliable and automatable.

Automating post-layout serial link compliance analysis

HyperLynx extracts accurate electrical channel models from layout, analyzes channels for standards compliance and produces a comprehensive, interactive report that shows which channels passed, which failed, and by how much. With HyperLynx, engineers can run automated serial link compliance analysis that provides accurate 3D electromagnetic modeling and doesn’t require them to be a signal integrity expert.

HyperLynx ensures designs will work before manufacture

Standards protocol compliance is critical to the success of any SerDes-based design. With HyperLynx, you can ensure that all the serial links in your design meet all of the standard requirements, before releasing the design for prototype fabrication.

Extensive protocol support with HyperLynx

HyperLynx Compliance Analysis includes support for over 200 standard protocols and variants, including Ethernet, Fiber Channel, HDMI, JESD, MIPI-D, OIF-CEI, PCIE and USB families.

HyperLynx verifies all your serial links

Most SerDes post-route flows use a combination of manual extraction and schematic editing to create channel models. HyperLynx uses an automated, scalable process that means all channels can be fully verified.

Overnight compliance analysis

3D electromagnetic simulation is compute-intensive, which means analyzing all the critical areas in a design can take days. HyperLynx allows 3D EM simulations to be run in parallel to speed analysis.
