1.3 Test System Requirements

For testing an Ethernet PHY for compliance, the following hardware and software are required:

  • Oscilloscope with Ethernet physical layer compliance software (for example, Tektronix TDSET3)
  • Ethernet compliance test fixture
  • Register access to PHY (for example, TI's USB-2-MDIO GUI when using MSP430)
  • DC power supply
  • Necessary cables and probes
