ABSTRACT:
A method for testing a multi-gigabit transceiver begins by configuring the multi-gigabit transceiver for testing. The processing continues by varying a performance aspect of the multi-gigabit transceiver to produce a varied multi-gigabit transceiver. The processing continues by providing an input test signal to the varied multi-gigabit transceiver. The processing further continues by monitoring an output of the varied multi-gigabit transceiver with respect to the input test signal to determine a level of signal integrity. The processing continues by determining when the level of signal integrity provides a desired performance margin. The processing continues by adjusting a programmable operational setting of the multi-gigabit transceiver when the level of signal integrity does not provide the desired performance margin.
