Mentor hyperlynx7/12/2023 ![]() The new automated channel analyzer from Mentor is like having an expert on your shoulder. "As data rates in high speed serial links increase, designing channels with acceptable bit error ratios, limited by equalization settings within a protocol's range, requires a higher level of expertise. Engineers can easily perform equalization optimization (CTLE, FFE, DFE) based on protocol architecture and constraints. The tool provides embedded protocol expertise for PCIe Gen3/4, USB 3.1, and COM-based technology for Ethernet and Optical Implementers Forum (OIF). Using the new HyperLynx release, hardware engineers can easily perform protocol-specific compliance checks. ![]() "We've changed our way of working, and now our hardware designers and SI engineers use the SerDes Compliance Wizard to quickly iterate during interface design optimization, and final interface compliance verification." "We've successfully used HyperLynx to achieve the 'first-time-right' implementation of our high-speed DDR4 and PCIe SerDes interfaces for the dReDBox project," stated Hans Klos, managing director of Sintecs B.V. Automated channel extraction was substantially faster than Sintecs' previous manual method that required time from a 3D full-wave solver expert to model each channel discontinuity. ![]() The new HyperLynx intelligent channel extraction tool helped compress the SerDes interface design schedule by automating the entire channel decomposition and modeling design task. They developed the European-funded multi-board dReDBox, a completely new concept for a "data center in a box," with disaggregate processing and memory resources connected with high-speed links ( Using the HyperLynx DDRx Wizard and new SerDes Compliance Wizard, Sintecs could quickly explore the available design space to converge on a physical implementation that met industry standard compliance metrics for their product's DDR4 (running at 2666 MT/s) and many PCIe3 interfaces. Mentor customer Sintecs, an electronic design service (EDS) company based in The Netherlands, specializes in complex board design and analyses.
