Collaboration brings extended test capabilities for GMSL-based devices
Rohde & Schwarz has collaborated with Analog Devices (ADI) to create a wide range of tests for gigabit multimedia serial link (GMSL) devices.
The GMSL technology from ADI provides a cost-efficient, scalable, and simple SerDes solution designed to improve performance for high-speed video links, primarily used in In-Vehicle Infotainment (IVI) and Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) in vehicles. The collaboration will enable engineers, developers and manufacturers to create and deploy GMSL-based ADAS and IVI systems rapidly.
Rohde & Schwarz has incorporated the ability to perform Physical Medium Attachment (PMA) tests in accordance with GMSL requirements. The test capabilities are fully integrated into the Rohde & Schwarz oscilloscope firmware and come with an extensive range of signal integrity tools. These tools include LiveEye, which allows for real-time monitoring of signal behaviour, and advanced jitter and noise analysis. Additionally, it includes built-in eye masks for forward and reverse channels.
Powerful built-in spectrum analysis on the RTP oscilloscope provides narrowband crosstalk verification. Furthermore, cable, connector, and channel characterization can be performed using vector network analyzers provided by Rohde & Schwarz.
Gigabit multimedia serial link technology is increasingly becoming a fundamental element in automotive applications, including safety, monitoring, infotainment, and autonomy, owing to its ability to reliably transport high-resolution digital video for camera and display-based applications.
Balagopal Mayampurath, Vice President of ADI’s GMSL Technology Group said, “It is significant that GMSL is adopted by several OEMs and Tier-1s, making it a de facto video connectivity standard in the automotive industry. The tests from Rohde & Schwarz expedite the process for customers to build and deliver GMSL-based systems and they are critical in supporting the automotive ecosystem.”
The application will be demonstrated at CES 2025 in Las Vegas
