Description
100BASE-T1 Automotive Ethernet Protocol Analyzer is the Protocol Analyzer with multiple features to capture and debug communication between host and design under test. Automotive Ethernet interface scales up to address current and future needs of in-vehicle bus speed requirements. The need for higher-speed in-vehicle buses is increasing to support feature-rich ADAS and connected vehicle needs. Two-wire full-duplex 100BASE-T1 PAM 3 signalling is the choice of interface bus to address these needs
Prodigy Technovations 100BASE-T1 Automotive Ethernet Protocol Analyzer provides an industry-first solution for the non-intrusively passive tap of the 100BASE-T1 bus at the physical layer and ensures no latency and accurate capturing of protocol data. Powerful basic and multi-level layer 2 to layer 7 protocol trigger capabilities enables the design engineer to capture protocol activity at a specific event. PGY-100BASE-T1-PA supports continuous streaming of captured protocol data to host computer SSD/HDD enabling long-duration capture.

Automotive Ethernet Analyzer Test Setup

PGY-100BASE-T1-PA sniffs the automotive Ethernet bus and monitors the protocol activity between the Master and Slave ECU. Simultaneously monitoring MDIO and MDC lines and correlating with 100BASE-T1 protocol activity helps easy debug the design problems. The Automotive Ethernet Analyzer unit will extract bit values from full-duplex PAM3 signal using Prodigy’s patent-pending solution. The host computer manages the operation of the analyzer unit, and stores and analyzes the acquired data. Passive tapping of the 100BASE-T1 bus ensures the least latency in acquiring the data making this solution an industry-first Passive TAP patent-pending solution.
Powerful Trigger capabilities
PGY-100BASE-T1-PA supports the industry’s best protocol layer trigger capabilities. Users can define trigger conditions from Layer 2 to layer 7. Advanced multi-layer trigger featured with If-then-else if allows the design engineer to monitor more than one trigger condition at the same time.

Protocol Analysis

Ethernet is one of the oldest protocols widely used protocol for many applications. Design engineers are used to viewing and analyzing the protocol data in a specific format. PGY-100BASE-T1-PA Protocol Analyzer software maintains the traditional views and provides advanced analysis capabilities. Live decoding capability provides decoding with any FCS error packets.
Setup Ansicht
Analyzing Protocol data to identify the design issues is a challenging task in millions of protocol packets. PGY-100BASE-T1-PA provides statistical information about each layer packet count and error packets. This simplifies the process of isolating the errors to specific protocol packets or protocol layers. Powerful expression-based search capabilities quickly help in locating packets of interest in the acquired entire protocol data for further analysis.
