Quick start guide
Intel® Arria® 10 GX Signal
Integrity Development Kit
A Complete Development Platform for Prototyping
Introduction
The Intel® Arria® 10 GX Signal Integrity
Development Kit helps you thoroughly
evaluate the signal integrity of Intel
Arria 10 GX transceivers. With this kit,
you can:
• Evaluate Intel Arria 10 GX FPGA
transceiver performance
• Generate and check pseudo-
random binary sequence (PRBS)
patterns via an easy-to-use GUI
• Dynamically change differential
output voltage (VOD),
pre-emphasis, and equalization
settings to optimize transceiver
performance for your channel
• Perform jitter analysis
• Verify physical medium attachment
(PMA) compliance to PCI Express*
(PCIe*), Gbps Ethernet (GbE), XAUI,
CEI-6G, Serial RapidIO*, high-
definition serial digital interface
(HD-SDI), and other major
standards
