"There's not really a lot to talk about."
Any idiot could make that out for the fib that it was, from the dour look on Vin's face and the way she hucked the pebble she'd been fiddling with at a passerby in the street below. Even in her little funk, she still had pretty good aim, if the ensuing scream was anything to go off of.
"Just missing a stupid festival. That's all."

"Well then what would you have me get instead?" Vin snapped the grip into place. "And with what money? I'm not exactly flush with cash, here." She could be. Probably. If she was willing to take on the kinds of work that made her gut churn more than a little at the thought. This city made it too easy to disappear without taking the extra step of going out and inviting it.

She set the bulk of the gun aside and reached for the barrel, plucking it up along with a cloth which she ran along its length, scrubbing away what grime wasn't already ground into its pitted surface. "Why all the concern, anyway? Scared I'm gonna get you killed or something?"
Tumblr media
“All the more reason to not have it break.” He could not quite understand the sentimentality of home. Talon shifted back and forth on his feet, mulling something over to himself as the gun grated against the wooden table. “I'm only saying if you rely on that alone, you're going to find yourself in a situation you can't shoot your way out of.”
Why did he care? Undoubtedly, she was asking that (internally) just as he was. In a sudden rush of discomfort, he took a step back and turned away. Old habits died hard, it seemed. Centuries later and he was still trying to take the midoans fresh off their planet under his wing, regardless of how wanted his assistance was.
“You don't have to take my word for it. I'm just... Familiar with the methods of killing here.”

Character Info Sheet
Tumblr media
Tagged by: @apexulansisTagging: I don't know who's even active on here anymore, so if you see this, consider yourself tagged, you lucky ducky.
Name: Vinley Nidena Robles
Name Meaning: "Dirt". As in the literal thing. Not the loftier, more spiritual concept of "earth".
Alias: Vin. Call her "Vinnie" and she'll make sure you have regrets about this.
Ethnicity: Midoan. Of Mido. From the planet, Mido. She used to live in a forest somewhere. That's about as specific as she gets.
Pictures You Like Best of Your Character: I'm too lazy to pick through my folders so I'll grab what I already have here despite it being so ungodly old.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Three Headcanons You've Never Told Anyone:
Vin has dislocated her shoulder in the process of trying to lick her own elbow. Twice.
When she was a kid, Vin had dreams of eventually moving to the city and becoming a radio star. Her mom pretty much shamed her out of this one. Some shit to do with abandoning the family and how wasteful and detrimental to the environment city people were.
Vin's got a couple of half-siblings running around somewhere that she doesn't know about. Same mom, different fathers. Her mom wound up settling down with Marok because he made her laugh. Like, on a regular basis. Not like that plot hook from The Golden Goose where the king gives his daughter away to the first guy to make her laugh. That would've just been dumb.
Three Things Your Character Likes Doing in Their Free Time:
Skipping rocks. Not constructive, but it kills time and she thinks it's relaxing.
Crochet. She learned it from Nena. She also finds this relaxing.
Tinkering. Mostly with her guns. Mostly so she can see how ridiculous she can make them. It's the closest thing she has to amusement that isn't just tatering out on the couch, playing video games.
Eight People Your Character Likes/Loves:
Ardaka.
Ardaka.
Ardaka.
Ardaka.
Nena.
Ardaka.
Her dad.
Ardaka.
Shut up. She's disinterested in having a ton of friends. I also maybe don't write enough for her to have any. Oopsie.
Three Things Your Character Regrets:
Kicking her little brother into the watering hole that one time. It was funny when she did it but it definitely added to the permanent chip on his shoulder.
Agreeing to go on the supply run that landed her on Sigma Rhada. Sure, she might not have met Ardaka if she hadn't gone. Or maybe she would have, just later on. Whatever the case, she couldn't have known what she was missing and she really wishes she had the cash to get back to her family already. Space travel is eye-wateringly expensive, even the cheap seats.
Accepting that first sweater from Nena. The Alpha Sweater. The beginning of the deluge. She has more sweaters than god and there's no sign of it stopping. There's no reason to even have a sweater in Neo Shousis but somehow Vin has thirty.
Two Phobias Your Character Has:
Fire. Kind of a gimme if you grew up in a village made completely of wood, with wooden foundations, at least a thousand feet off of the ground.
Being snatched off of the street. It's happened once already and she's a little bit paranoid that it'll happen again. Unrelated: Be sure to ask her about her pepper spray collection.

Operation: Hostile Mergers
Tumblr media
(Jovian Concord hype image)
Operation
On Wednesday (22 May 2019), the event began with the release of Update 25.0 and was set to run until 03 June. Upon logging in, a new mission was available on Jupiter, labelled "Operation: Hostile Mergers Mission 1". This update also contained the Jupiter Gas City tileset rework, and the Amalgam enemies found within.
Mechanics and Missions
The new node on Jupiter, Operation: Hostile Mergers Mission 1, was a Disruption mission on the remastered Gas City tileset. The Tenno had to complete one round of Disruption, and then were given the opportunity to extract. Upon completing the mission, a second node was unlocked on Jupiter, where the Tenno had to complete two rounds of Disruption. Completing the second mission unlocked a third mission with three rounds of Disruption. Completing the third mission unlocked a final node, labelled "Operation: Hostile Mergers Endurance", where the Tenno participated in Disruption for as long as they could.
During Disruption missions, the Tenno would drop into the Gas City and have to hack a door to proceed. Ordis and Alad V would send transmissions throughout the mission. Some of Alad V's transmissions were distinct from his usual ones, spoken in a lower tone of voice and with a darker camera view, and a camera angle high above his head. These transmissions were mostly addressed to an individual called CT, and not intended for the Tenno.
Ordis: "Ordis is detecting Sentient waveforms, Operator. Strange interlink. Splattered in Corpus crosstalk. Bypass that console so we might get a better understanding…."
Alad V: "Oh no! You've caught me! Me and my little partnership! Where's that Lotus when you need her? Now, sniff-sniff, Betrayers. See if you can find the cheese."
(upon hacking door) Ordis: "Outgoing communications cipher…. Not much of a trick for Ordis, is it? Oh, how scandalous! Alad's system has a back door! Shall we… listen in?"
Alad V (to CT): "Ah, more test subjects have arrived. Right on schedule. CT, prepare my Amalgams for further… evolution. I've baited the traps."
Ordis: "These conduits are the source of those Sentient waveforms. This may be worthwhile if we can find the key component… but it does seem a tad convenient, doesn't it?"
Beyond the door, the Tenno could find four terminals of Sentient design. Vapos Corpus enemies would begin to spawn in high numbers, accompanied by occasional Amalgams. Upon death, these Amalgams dropped keys that would activate the terminals.
(upon picking up first key, variant) Alad V: "Almost there, you clever vermin! But what to do next? Can you feel that coming rush? That cocktail of unflinching violence and pseudo-random rewards? Mm, good for business."
(upon picking up first key, variant) Alad V (to CT): "Showtime, CT. Inform our Partners another trial has begun. Prep interference routines. Bait and wait… it's time for Alad V to get back on the corporate map, yes!"
Inserting the keys into the conduit terminals would trigger a 2-minute countdown, and trigger either a boon or a hazard for the Tenno, which would last for the duration of the conduit activation. In addition, a Demolyst would spawn somewhere on the map, and immediately head towards the active conduit. This Demolyst was essentially an improved Amalgam unit that periodically pulsed a nullifier field. If it was able to reach the conduit, it would charge up for roughly 3 seconds before detonating, destroying itself and the conduit. If it was killed before it could detonate, the conduit would be considered safe and the countdown would end.
If the conduit was projecting a hazard and was destroyed, the hazard would persist for the rest of the round. If the conduit was projecting a boon and was defended, the boon would persist for the rest of the round. In all other outcomes, the condition ended once the conduit was no longer active.
(upon activating conduit, variant) Alad V: "In battle, advantage goes to the one most willing to die. And my Demolysts, Tenno? Well, they aren't just willing… they want it."
(upon activating conduit, variant) Alad V: "As a man with everything to lose, I make a point of employing the opposite. Release the Demolyst!"
(upon activating conduit, variant) Alad V: "Feeling a bit… out of sorts, Tenno? Noticing any… performance problems with that metal seashell of yours?"
(upon activating conduit, variant) Alad V: "I've taken my knocks in the past, but, Tenno, you seem a bit sluggish, a bit spent. Are you sure you want to continue?"
(upon activating conduit, variant) Alad V: "Disciples, remember your vows. Increase profits, and decrease… Tenno!"
(upon activating conduit, variant) Alad V: "Demolyst! Target the Conduit… and claim your glory!"
(upon activating conduit, variant) Alad V: "Demolyst! Light your fuse!
(upon activating conduit, variant) Alad V (to CT): "CT, time for a Demolyst."
(upon activating conduit, variant) Alad V (to CT): "CT… they've accessed a Conduit. [sigh] Deploy a Demolyst!"
(upon activating conduit, variant) Alad V (to CT): "Conduit activated! CT, send in a Demolyst."
(upon activating conduit, variant) Alad V (to CT): "They're preoccupied! Now, CT, the Demolyst!"
(upon activating conduit, variant) Alad V (to CT): "Relentless, even when they're spinning on the spit. CT, signal the supply decks. We're going to need additional 'volunteers' for conversion."
(upon activating conduit, variant) Alad V (to CT): "This has gone far enough. CT, cycle the interference routines. We need to knock these freaks down a notch."
(upon activating conduit, variant) Alad V (to CT): "CT, permute the next interference routines. They had better work this time."
(upon activating conduit, variant) Alad V (to CT): "Bait followed by battery followed by bait. I'm getting bored. CT, let's salt our interference routines and dispatch the next Amalgams, yes."
(upon activating conduit, variant) Alad V (to CT): "I need to cut my losses, quick. CT, dispatch updated interference routines… and, uh… lower the room temperature, could you?"
(upon activating conduit with a boon, variant) Alad V (to CT): "What… what if we make the Tenno more of a threat… really see what these Amalgams can do?"
(upon activating conduit with a boon, variant) Alad V (to CT): "Let's flip the script, and see what these Amalgams can do."
(upon activating conduit with a boon, variant) Alad V (to CT): "CT, invert the algorithm. Give them a little false hope."
(upon activating conduit with a boon, variant) Alad V (to CT): "CT, the model is getting a bit predictable. A little morale boost might be good for conditioning, yes."
(upon activating conduit with a boon, variant) Alad V (to CT): "Let the Betrayers have a little fun while we crunch the numbers."
(upon activating conduit with a boon, variant) Alad V (to CT): "Give the Betrayers a little hope, and we'll sink the hook deeper."
(when a conduit is destroyed, variant) Alad V: "Don't be discouraged! Failure has made you what you are… a failure."
(when a conduit is destroyed, variant) Alad V: "Betrayers, frustrated yet? Get used to it."
(when a conduit is destroyed, variant) Alad V: "Will you try again? Will you give me another reason to laugh?"
(when a conduit is destroyed, variant) Alad V: "A pity… you could have used that. Hmm, but I'm bad at sharing, you know."
(when a conduit is destroyed, variant) Alad V: "This week on Nightwave: Tenno lose big, give up on life! Details at the next cycle."
(when a conduit is destroyed, variant) Alad V (to CT): "Finally. Some investments take longer to earn out."
(when a conduit is destroyed, variant) Alad V (to CT): "These disciples finally show some merit. Credit where credit is due: I am an excellent leader."
(when a conduit is destroyed, variant) Alad V (to CT): "CT, fast-track these disciples for promotion… I mean, conversion, of course."
(upon defending conduit) Ordis: "Scans indicate these conduits are connected to a massive stockpile of resources. Just how long is the Operator planning to fight for?"
(upon defending conduit) Ordis: "Operator, the stockpile of tech and resources connected to these conduits seems beyond Alad's means. Where did he get all this?"
(upon defending conduit) Alad V: "Good! Keep it up. Every single bit-stream of this carnage only makes me richer."
(upon defending conduit) Alad V: "Thank you for your generous brutality and violence! My Amalgams have never been better!"
(upon defending conduit) Alad V: "The smart move would be walk away while you still can. Consequences aren't your strong suit, are they?"
(upon defending conduit) Alad V: "Ready for more, Betrayers? I have to admire your greed! Sure! Let's go again!"
(upon defending conduit) Alad V: "Oh, are you still floating there? Like a twit tetrapod, oblivious to the rising heat."
(upon defending conduit) Alad V (to CT): "Steady… steady now, follow the plan. Trials make data, data is sold, Amalgams evolve… Tenno die. And I won't have to beg for mercy from the Partners."
(upon defending conduit) Alad V (to CT): "Useless disciples! CT, is it so hard to get good help these days? The sooner they're all Amalgams, the better."
(upon defending conduit) Alad V (to CT): "CT, rescan the comm channels. I can't shake the feeling that someone's listening in. The Board? Our Partners? I don't know."
Hidden in an out-of-the-way room could be found a datamass. This datamass could be inserted into an active conduit that was projecting a hazard in order to cancel the hazard.
(upon finding conduit failsafe) Ordis: "Some kind of failsafe? If placed in a conduit, it will cancel the running interference routines. Use it wisely, Operator; there's only one!"
After all four conduits had either been defended or destroyed, the round was completed and another round would begin shortly (unless all four terminals were destroyed, whereupon the mission promptly failed).
(during a round, variant) Alad V (to CT): "The data's good, at least. Worth more than a few trinkets to our business partners, yes."
(during a round, variant) Alad V (to CT): "CT, integrate this for the next generational cycle. We need to recoup… aggressively."
(during a round, variant) Alad V (to CT): "Unfortunately. But this is how evolution works. One generation closer to an Amalgam they just can't kill."
(during a round, variant) Alad V (to CT): "Wasteful, but failure teaches faster. Our Partners will be pleased."
(during a round, variant) Alad V (to CT): "I thought you were better than this! You're making me look bad in front of my new business associates."
(during a round, variant) Alad V (to CT): "Another weakness revealed and removed. Who knew these violent prongs would be so good at science!
(during a round, variant) Alad V (to CT): "I don't like this. Inventory as bait was a mistake. What do I do now?"
(during a round, variant) Alad V (to CT): "This is getting out of hand."
(upon completing a round) Alad V: "Take your trinkets. A small price to pay for a superior product."
(upon completing a round) Ordis: "Impressive! Ordis is just fluttering with anticipation! What will the Operator—murder—find next?"
(upon completing a round) Ordis: "Ordis thinks Alad will miss this."
(upon completing a round) Alad V (to CT): "More losses. More debt. How am I going to explain this to that… that thing?"
(upon completing a round) Ordis: "Excellent find. Might the Operator now consider returning to the warm embrace of the Orbiter?"
(upon completing a round) Ordis: "For how much longer will the Operator play along with Alad's twisted game?"
(upon completing a round) Alad V (to CT): "What did they get? This is spiralling on us. I'm hemorrhaging inventory."
(upon completing a round) Ordis: "Ordis will add this to the pile."
(upon completing a round) Ordis: "May Ordis suggest extraction? Nothing Alad has is worth your life."
(upon completing a round) Ordis: "Ordis knows the Operator has the wisdom to choose comfort and safety over material gain. Ordis… is right, is he not?"
(upon completing a round) Alad V (to CT): "CT, transfer more disciples and begin conversion at once. We're deep in the red now."
(waiting for next round, variant) Alad V: "Is that all you're good for?"
(waiting for next round, variant) Alad V: "Stay awhile… stay… forever!"
(waiting for next round, variant) Alad V: "We're just getting reacquainted. Don't leave the party just yet!"
(waiting for next round, variant) Alad V: "Smell that? Newly evolved Amalgams, fresh from the oven! Want a taste?"
(waiting for next round, variant) Alad V: "You could have so much more…."
(waiting for next round, variant) Alad V: "You're greedy, Tenno, very greedy. It's an inspiration to us all."
(waiting for next round, variant) Alad V: "Don't leave, Betrayer! Think of all the science we could be doing…."
(waiting for next round, variant) Alad V: "Impressive performance, Betrayer. But, if you don't mind, we're going to change things up."
(waiting for next round, variant) Alad V: "Keep testing me, Betrayers. And I'll keep testing you."
(when next round starts, variant) Alad V: "The next Amalgam cycle will show you what it means to be on the bleeding edge."
(when next round starts, variant) Alad V: "Destroy them, my Amalgams!"
(when next round starts, variant) Alad V: "We have unfinished business. Shall we?"
(when next round starts, variant) Alad V: "So… feeling better, Tenno? I can fix that."
(when next round starts, variant) Alad V: "Another roll, Betrayers? I think your number's bound to come up."
(when next round starts, variant) Alad V: "I told my Partners you were insatiable… but even I'm impressed!"
(when next round starts, variant) Alad V: "Let's see if that shiny Tenno luck holds."
(when next round starts, variant) Alad V: "I see. Another round? Good to see my greed wearing off on you!"
(when extracting, variant) Alad V (to CT): "It's not an ideal outcome. I just hope it's enough to appease that flying freak [sigh]."
(when extracting, variant) Alad V (to CT): "They'll be back. And my Amalgams will be waiting."
(when extracting, variant) Alad V (to CT): "Costly. CT, send combat results to our Partners, but… omit our losses.
(upon failing, variant) Alad V (to CT): "This… this is how we do it. CT, prepare the revised Amalgam routines for the next production cycle."
(upon failing, variant) Alad V (to CT): "That should keep the Partners happy. Or, at least, less… un-happy. [sigh]"
(upon failing, variant) Alad V (to CT): "Disciples performing well. Perhaps I should start a profit-sharing program? [snickers] No."
(upon failing, variant) Alad V: "Game over! You lose… but take comfort in what that means: that I win! [laughs]"
(upon failing, variant) Alad V: "You got greedy, Tenno. Best leave that to a professional."
(upon failing, variant) Alad V: "Thank you, Tenno. By your thick-headed violent demonstration, my new Partner Amalgams are ready for full production!"
Rewards
After completing the first mission, the Tenno received an inbox message from the Lotus containing an Operation: Hostile Mergers badge.
Inbox message: Success!
You went above and beyond the call of duty today, Tenno. The skill you displayed will inspire your fellow warriors.
—The Lotus
After completing the second and third missions, the Tenno received identical inbox messages containing an Operation: Hostile Mergers sigil and an Aura Forma, respectively.
If the Tenno achieved a score of 1000 on the Endurance mission, they would receive an inbox message from the Lotus containing a Spectra Vandal. If the Tenno achieved a score of 4000 on the Endurance mission, they would receive an inbox message from the Lotus containing a Glaxion Vandal. These inbox messages were identical to the messages received before. Both Endurance goals could be completed on the same run.
The founding warlord of each clan received an inbox message from Ordis with a trophy based on the clan's level of participation in the event.
Inbox message: HOSTILE MERGERS: Maximum Disruption
Operators,
[clan] inflicted maximum disruption to Alad V's Amalgam laboratory. In doing so, you robbed him of resources and strained relations with his Sentient partners.
Ordis has taken the liberty of commissioning this statue. Surely it will become the focal point of whatever room you place it in.
Your loyal Cephalon, Ordis

Why do we need modulation? | Soukacatv.com
Modulation
Modulation is an important step of communication system. Modulation is defined as the process whereby some characteristic (line amplitude, frequency, phase of a high frequency signal wave (carrier wave) is varied in accordance with instantaneous value intensity of low frequency signal wave (modulating wave.)
HDMI Encoder Modulator,16in1 Digital Headend, HD RF Modulator at SOUKA https://www.soukacatv.com/.
Need for modulation :
i) To separate signal from different transmitters :
Audio frequencies are within the range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz. Without modulation all signals at same frequencies from different transmitters would be mixed up. There by giving impossible situation to tune to any one of them. In order to separate the various signals, radio stations must broadcast at different frequencies.
Each radio station must be given its own frequency band. This is achieved by frequency translation as a result of modulation process.
ii) Size of the antenna :
For efficient transmission the transmitting antennas should have length at least equal to a quarter of the wavelength of the signal to be transmitted. For an electromagnetic wave of frequency 15 kHz, the wavelength λ is 20 km and one-quarter of this will be equal to 5 km. Obviously, a vertical antenna of this size is impractible. On the other hand, for a frequency of 1 MHz, this height is reduced to 75 m.
Also, the power radiated by an antenna of length l is proportional to (l/λ). This shows that for the same antenna length, power radiated is large for shorter wavelength. Thus, our signal which is of low frequency must be translated to the high frequency spectrum of the electromagnetic wave. This is achieved by the process of modulation.
iii)To Reduce  Antenna Height.(practicability of antennas height).
iv)Transmit The Information To long Distance Without  interference.
v) Reduce band width.
Other answers have described modulation as it applies to communications applications, where the information to be conveyed is superimposed onto a carrier. My answer will apply the concept of modulation to power electronics applications, particularly in DC-AC inverters.
Refer to Figure 1. This shows a typical 3-phase inverter bridge. Six electronic switches are arranged in three-phase bridge configuration, and are supplied by a DC voltage source. These switches are high-power electronic devices. The devices are shown as transistors, but can be SCRs, GTOs, Darlington transistors, MOSFETs or IGBTs. The most suitable devices will be governed by conversion power, voltage level and switching frequencies requirements. The load is shown as an induction motor, but may be the primary of a three-phase transformer or any other A.C. load.
 Figure 1: Three-phase Inverter Switches and Waveforms
If each of the three phases are switched in this manner, but with the switching of each phase 120 electrical degrees delayed from the previous phase, the three waveforms of the centre points (VAO, VBO, VCO) are as shown in the figure. If the difference in voltage between any two phases is measured, (VAB in the figure), the result is a 6-step or quasi-square wave. VBC and VCA are the same except are phase shifted 120 degrees from each other.
Thus the output of the three-phase inverter bridge is a three-phase waveform. The frequency of the waveform is set by the switching frequency. The RMS voltage is controlled by modulating the waveform. In practice, the waveform is pulse width modulated with chops.. These chops are of varying size. The purpose is twofold: to make the inverter output currents more closely resemble a sine wave, and to enable adjustment of the RMS output voltage.
 Figure 2: Sinusoidal Modulation of Inverter Output Waveform
A method of modulation often used is sinusoidal modulation. . Refer to Figure 2. A triangle waveform is compared with a sine waveform. When the sine wave exceeds the triangle wave, the top switch of the inverter phase is turned on. When the triangle wave exceeds the sine wave, the bottom switch is turned on. The resultant current waveform to the load is nearly sinusoidal with very little harmonic distortion. If the load is an induction motor, no further filtering is required.
If the inverter is fixed frequency, such as in a UPS, then further filtering is needed. The harmonic distortion content is a function of the modulation frequency of the carrier wave. At a high modulation frequency, the first significant harmonic will be at high frequency and low magnitude, which means that harmonics are relatively easy to filter out with a low-pass LC filter. Typical modulation frequency with IGBT power switches is 4kHz.
In the process of modulation, the baseband signal is translated i.e., shifted from low frequency to high frequency . This frequency shift is proportional to the frequency of carrier.
Advantages of Modulation
1.     Reduction in the height of antenna
2.     Avoids mixing of signals
3.     Increases the range of communication
4.     Multiplexing is possible
5.     Improves quality of reception
We will discuss each of these advantages in detail below .
1. Reduction in the height of antenna
For the transmission of radio signals, the antenna height must be multiple of λ/4 ,where λ is the wavelength .
λ = c /f
where c : is the velocity of light
f: is the frequency of the signal to be transmitted
The minimum antenna height required to transmit a baseband signal of f = 10 kHz is calculated as follows :
The antenna of this height is practically impossible to install .
Now, let us consider a modulated signal at f = 1 MHz . The minimum antenna height is given by,
This antenna can be easily installed practically . Thus, modulation reduces the height of the antenna .
2. Avoids mixing of signals
If the baseband sound signals are transmitted without using the modulation by more than one transmitter, then all the signals will be in the same frequency range i.e. 0 to 20 kHz . Therefore, all the signals get mixed together and a receiver can not separate them from each other .
Hence, if each baseband sound signal is used to modulate a different carrier then they will occupy different slots in the frequency domain (different channels). Thus, modulation avoids mixing of signals .
3. Increase the Range of Communication
The frequency of baseband signal is low, and the low frequency signals can not travel long distance when they are transmitted . They get heavily attenuated .
The attenuation reduces with increase in frequency of the transmitted signal, and they travel longer distance .
The modulation process increases the frequency of the signal to be transmitted . Therefore, it increases the range of communication.
4. Multiplexing is possible
Multiplexing is a process in which two or more signals can be transmitted over the same communication channel simultaneously .
This is possible only with modulation.
The multiplexing allows the same channel to be used by many signals . Hence, many TV channels can use the same frequency range, without getting mixed with each other or different frequency signals can be transmitted at the same time .
5. Improves Quality of Reception
With frequency modulation (FM) and the digital communication techniques such as PCM, the effect of noise is reduced to a great extent . This improves quality of reception .
We need to modulate signal for following reason basically :
1: Transmission of signal to longer distance : For transmitting a signal to the longer distance you need to have maximum amplitude and frequency which is impossible to acquire from original signal.
2: Multiplexing the signal: Modulating signals on different frequencies give us the option to mix and send multiple signals through a single channel and separate out easily.
3: Reduction in Antenna height: Well, Antenna theory will be helpful for understanding this. Simply I remembered that height H of antenna is proportional to the wavelength (Lamda) of the signal.
4: Noise immunity: Modulated signals are high frequency high amplitude signals and hence noise is not so easily affecting the information as every modulation technique using different phenomena to store data.
5: Noise availability: Modulated signals consist frequencies and amplitudes decided by the designer and so according to the channel noise and interference we can decide parameters and avoid noise.
6: Ease of transmission and reception: As we know baseband i.e. original signals can't be transmitted directly as they are not supported by most of channels and also fade away after particular distance, so we need modulation.
This one's easy. I'll give you two instances why modulation is needed.
INSTANCE 1:
Consider you're on a bank of one side of a river and I'll give you a paper and tell you to throw it to the other side of the bank! Is it possible to throw the paper which doesn't have suitable mass to other side of the river?
The answer is No. So in order to make the paper reach the other side of the river I'll use a stone with the paper and throw it, now it'll reach the other side.
In communication the message signal will be of low frequency which is like paper (light weight) in order to make it heavy, a carrier signal(stone) is used to send data from transmitting station to the receiving station.
INSTANCE 2:
Consider you have food and you have to take it to school for lunch, will you carry the food with your hand? No right? You'll use a carrier box and you'll eat the food not the carrier box.
In communication food(message signal) cannot be transmitted as it is, it needs a carrier box(carrier signal)to which is used to enclose the message signal from the transmitter end and carry the modulated signal through the medium and at the receiver the carrier box(carrier signal) is removed by demodulation it removes the envelope and obtains the food(message signal).
This is why modulation and demodulation is required in communication systems.
Dictionary definition: changing any one of the parameters of carrier signal such as amplitude, frequency or phase of the signal with respect to the input voltage of the message signal at that particular instance of time and keeping the other parameters constant is called as modulation.
Few other reasons why modulation is required is as follows.
1) TO REDUCE THE HEIGHT OF THE ANTENNA
2) TO MULTIPLEX MORE NUMBER OF SIGNALS
3) TO REDUCE THE NOISE & DISTORTIONS
4) TO NARROW BANDING THE SIGNAL
5) TO REDUCE EQUIPMENT COMPLEXITY
Very simply because of physics. Let's say you want to communicate from one person to another using just a really really long wire (cable communications). The way that you model a long wire is using a infinite number of capacitors and inductors, as shown below:
For simplicity, you can say that both connections have a shared ground, so all the bottom inductors don't participate, and all the capacitors connect to ground on the bottom. If we say all the capacitances are the same and all inductances are the same (again an approximation that the wire is homogeneous), and you sum these infinitely, you will get a DC resistance. What this means it that this lossless long wire (meaning it has no resistors in it), will transmit nothing at DC, because all of the voltage will drop across the resistor.
Thus the only way to transfer anything across a long wire is through AC (alternating current). Thus you need high frequency modulation in order to communicate.
In the modulation process, two signals are used namely the modulating signal and the carrier .
The modulating signal is nothing but the baseband signal or information signal while the carrier is a high frequency sinusoidal signal .
In the modulation process, some parameter of the carrier wave (such as amplitude, frequency or phase ) is varied in accordance with the modulating signal . This modulated signal is then transmitted by the transmitter .
The receiver demodulates the received modulated signal and gets the original information signal back .
Thus, demodulation is exactly opposite to modulation .
In the process of modulation the carrier wave actually acts as carrier which carries the information signal from the transmitter to receiver .
Need of Modulation
You may ask, when the baseband signal can be transmitted directly why to use the modulation ?
The answer is that the baseband transmission has many limitations which can be overcome using modulation . It is explained below .
In the process of modulation, the baseband signal is translated i.e., shifted from low frequency to high frequency . This frequency shift is proportional to the frequency of carrier.
Advantages of Modulation
1.     Reduction in the height of antenna
2.     Avoids mixing of signals
3.     Increases the range of communication
4.     Multiplexing is possible
5.     Improves quality of reception
 Modulation is a process in which the feature (amplitude, phase or frequency ) of the carrier signal is changed in accordance with instantaneous value of modulating signal.
Modulation is needed for many reasons. Some of them are given below :
·         To increase the bandwidth of the signals
·         To reduce the antenna size.
·         To reduce the noise and distortions.
·         To multiplex the signals
·         To reduce the interference at the time of transmission of the information.
In a carrier communication system, the baseband signal of a low-frequency spectrum is translated to a high frequency spectrum. This is achieved through modulation. The aim of this topic is to explore the reasons for using modulation. Modulation is defined as a process by virtue of which, some characteristic of a high frequency sinusoidal wave is varied in accordance with the instantaneous amplitude of the baseband signal.
Two signals are involved in the modulation process. The baseband signal and the carrier signal. The baseband signal is to be transmitted to the receiver. The frequency of this signal is generally low. In the modulation process, this baseband signal is called the
modulating signal. The waveform of this signal is unpredictable. For example, the waveform of a speech signal is random in nature and cannot be predicted. In this case, the speech signal is the modulating signal.
The other signal involved with the modulation is a high frequency sinusoidal wave. This signal is called the carrier signal or carrier.
The frequency of the carrier signal is always much higher than that of the baseband signal. After modulation, the baseband signal of low frequency is transferred to the high frequency carrier, which carries the information in the form of some variations. After the completion of the modulation process, some characteristic of the carrier is varied such that the resultant variations carry the information.
The carrier signal is represented by the equation:
A=E sin(ωt + ϕ)——(1)
equation-(1) is an indicator that this equation represents the carrier signal. The components of this equation arc as follows:
·         A: Instantaneous amplitude of the carrier
·         E: Amplitude of the carrier
·         ϕ: Initial phase of the carrier signal
·         Angular frequency of the carrier, such that = 2πfc, Where fc is the frequency carrier, also called the central frequency
Equation (1) has three parameters namely, amplitudes (E), frequency (ω), and phase (f). In principle, these parameters have constant values for a particular sinusoidal wave. According to the definition of Modulation, some characteristic of the carrier signal is varied in accordance with the modulating signal. After modulation any one of the three parameters of the carrier signal, namely, frequency, or phase, is varied keeping the remaining two constant.
The baseband signal is then carried by these variations. The type of the modulation is decided by the parameter chosen to vary.
For example, if amplitude of the carrier is chosen to vary in accordance with the instantaneous amplitude of the baseband signal, keeping frequency and phase constant, the resulting modulation called amplitude modulation. Frequency modulation and phase modulation are also obtained in a similar way.
Low-frequency baseband sign it is thus translated to a high frequency carrier such that the information is coded in the variations in one of the parameters of the carrier. At the receiver side, these variations are detected through the demodulation process to recover the original baseband signal.
The following can be summarized with reference to modulation.
·         The baseband signal is known as the modulating signal.
·         The baseband signal is a low-frequency signal.
·         The carrier signal is always a high frequency sinusoidal wave.
·         After modulation, the carrier is said to be modulated by the modulating.
·         The output of the modulator is called the modulated signal.
During the modulation process, the modulating, signal varies the frequency, y, amplitude, or phase of the carrier in accordance with its instantaneous amplitude.
The process of modulation in a communication system increases its cost and complexity. This may be considered as a disadvantage. However, modulation is extensively used in most communication systems. There is a definite need for using modulation. There can be problems if modulation is not used. Scrutinizing these problems can explain why modulation is required.
The baseband signal will be transmitted as it is. If modulation is not employed however, the system designer could confront the fallowing problems:
1)     TO REDUCE THE ANTENNA HEIGHT 2) TO MULTIPLEX THE MORE NUMBER OF SIGNALS 3) TO REDUCE THE NOISE & DISTORTIONS 4) TO NARROW BANDING THE SIGNAL 5) TO REDUCE EQUIPMENT COMPLEXITY

Research
https://yourartpath.com/types-of-line-in-art-meaning
After my decision to express conversations through lines,  creating abstract . 
I did a bit of a research on how the lines work and which lines I am going to use in order to express different components of the speech. 
https://theconversation.com/explainer-why-the-human-voice-is-so-versatile-69800
Voice explanation 
How the voice is produced
Voice production can be thought of as a source-filter model. The voice is a combination of a vibrating source that controls its amplitude and pitch (the five tones in the example above), and an acoustic filter that controls how it sounds, much like how you can shape the sound with a graphic equaliser on a sound system.
The source is the vibrating vocal folds situated in the larynx. The filter is the airway that runs from the vocal folds to the lips or nostrils, which we call the vocal tract.
The voice is an instrument which we use all the time from the day we’ve been born to our very last moment. It is important for the aim of this project to acknowledge  the structure and how we produce sound.

https://www.coursehero.com/study-guides/boundless-psychology/influence-of-culture-on-emotion/
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/264309590_Visualizing_Vocal_Expression
In this case study they are exploring the sounds as an abstract shapes. It is really interesting to understand how people are trying to express the human voice through different systems. 
https://social.cs.uiuc.edu/papers/pdfs/pietrowicz_CHIEA14.pdf
http://www.cybertherapyandrehabilitation.com/2013/06/visualizing-voice/
There are two conversations presented on the images. Here the colours are bright and the way they explore the topic is through circular system which shows how people communicate. Each participant in the conversation is presented through different colour. 
https://blog.soundviz.com/2015/10/29/8-stunning-ways-artists-are-visualizing-sound/
The following links are showing the traditional way of exploring the topic ‘voice and visualisation’. 
https://www.futurelearn.com/info/courses/music-moves/0/steps/12681
Most importantly, we will have a look at three visual representations of sound: the waveform, spectrum and spectrogram.
The only way for people to see their voice is through waveform or spectrum, but my idea is to create art (abstract ) following my own rules and exposing not their voice but their way of speaking following a conversation or explanation. There is nothing to do with science only with the voice and my understanding about it.  
https://www.voicebase.com/5-reasons-to-combine-data-visualization-and-speech-analytics/ 
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4828474/ 
About my research:
There are many exciting ways to represent sound which is amazing. Thorough my research I saw big diversity and explorations. The common one is with the help of programs which analyse data behind the noise, measuring the different qualities of the audio and than assigning a visual component of them. Even Apple Music has its own music visualiser so while you’re listening it gives you the opportunity to watch the movement of the voice/melody. The topic is really abstract and at the same time really researched by a lot of people in many different ways. Every person who tried to visualise voice has a different idea about the process of investigation.And there is a big diversity of outcomes. Most of the people are exploring the subject through different data programs, others through different  shapes and colours and morover there are artists who draw the conversations and express feelings through an actual art works.
I am amazed, when I first begun with this project I was scared that I won’t be able to research it in a certain way cause I thought that it is pretty abstract and the information would be not that much, but at the moment I’ve started with the research I found a lot of information.  
My system is different and it is not linked to any of the techniques I found and read about. It is completely invented by me and my vision about voice and speech. For me every person has his own point of view so I focused on my own since I am the person who’s working on this topic.

(From Nena) “Tea and gardening huh? Interesting hobbies.”
The Dreian’s tail shifted, tattered red fins giving a flutter before settling a bit closer to himself (and out of the way). Naru was feeling cheery today, and it was clear as folded crystalline teeth showed in a little grin. 
“You think so?” He chirped. “My aunt used to make tea with herbs from my uncle’s garden, I think that’s where the idea got planted in my head. …Pardon the pun.”
He took a sip of his drink, a bright flavorful tea he’d brought to share with the older Midoan.
“What about you? What do you like to do, next to baking?”
“Oh, I’ve been known to crack one or two a’those. Puns, that is.” Nena cracked a wrinkled smile, her eyes squinting nearly closed behind her bottle-thick spectacles.
Tumblr media
She could have probably gone on and on about all of the sweaters or tea cozies she’d knitted over the years for literally everyone in the neighborhood. It was what she did best, after all. Making sure everyone had a good way to stay cozy. On a planet that rarely sank below the high 60′s, even on a bad day. (Best to be prepared in case the impossible happened, right?) It was a hellishly dull subject, though. Even to her.
“I got a little garden m’self.” It was a common thread, at least. “Not as big or impressive as yours probably is, but I grow a few things. Mostly herbs ‘n vegetables.” And drugs. So many drugs. “The sorta things that’re in pretty short supply ‘round these parts.”

"Hey, I appreciate you showing me to this place and all but, uh..." Vin glanced around, particularly to the line of customers at the bar, all of whom looked just like her and all of whom were leaning just a little too far away from the massive figure looming quietly beside her. "Do you always hang out in Little Mido?"
Not that this was a problem for her. Seeing a friendly face was kind of nice when she couldn't even seem to trust her own kind in this place. At least if they were anything like Dirk, the one noticeably absent bartender from the bunch scurrying around the back today.
Or at least she thought that was his name. Aside from being an absolute rat, he was about as unmemorable as they come. Hell if she could be assed to remember what he was called.

Vin sighed and palmed a fistful of beernuts from the basket in front of her. "Are you, like, a bouncer or something?"

Analog to Digital Conversion
Tumblr media
The voltage signal depicted in figure (1) is called an analog signal. To see how a signal can be represented in an analog form that is, how signals can be converted from analog to digital form consider figure (a). Here the curve represents a voltage signal, identical to that in figure (1). At equal intervals along the time axis, we have marked the time instants t0, t1, t2, and so on. At each of these time instants, the magnitude of the signal is measured, a process known as sampling. Figure (b) shows a representation of the signal of figure (a) in terms of its samples. The signal of figure (b) is defined only at the sampling instants; it no longer is a continuous function of time; rather, it is a discrete-time signal. However, since the magnitude of each sample can take any value in a continuous range, the signal in figure (b) is still an analog signal.
Tumblr media
Figure (1) Original Signal
Tumblr media
Figure (a) Continuous
Tumblr media
Figure (b) Discrete Now if we represent the magnitude of each of the signal samples in figure (b) by a number having a finite number of digits, then the signal amplitude will no longer be continuous; rather, it is said to be quantized, discretized, or digitized. The resulting digital signal then is simply a sequence of numbers that represent the magnitudes of the successive signal samples. The choice of the number system to represent the signal samples affects the type of digital signal produced and has a profound effect on the complexity of the digital circuits required to process the signals. It turns out that the binary number system results in the simplest possible digital signals and circuits. In a binary system, each digit in the number takes on one of only two possible values, denoted 0 and 1. Correspondingly, the digital signals in binary systems need have only two voltage levels, which can be labelled low and high. As an example, in some of the digital circuits studied in this book, the levels are 0 V and +5 V. Figure (c) shows the time variation of such a digital signal. Observe that the waveform is a pulse train with 0 V representing a 0 signal, or logic 0, and +5 V representing logic 1. If we use N binary digits (bits) to represent each sample of the analog signal, then the digitized sample value can be expressed as
Tumblr media
Equation (1) where b0,b1, . . . ,bN−1, denote the N bits and have values of 0 or 1. Here bit b0 is the least significant bit (LSB), and bit bN−1 is the most significant bit (MSB). Conventionally, this binary number is written as bN−1 bN−2. .b0. We observe that such a representation quantizes the analog sample into one of the 2N levels. Obviously the greater the number of bits (i.e., the larger the N), the closer the digital word D approximates the magnitude of the analog sample. That is, increasing the number of bits reduces the quantization error and increases the resolution of the
Tumblr media
Figure (C)
Tumblr media
Figure (D) analog-to-digital conversion. This improvement is, however, usually obtained at the expense of more complex and hence more costly circuit implementations. It is not our purpose here to delve into this topic any deeper; we merely want the reader to appreciate the nature of analog and digital signals. Nevertheless, it is an opportune time to introduce a very important circuit building block of modern electronic systems: the analog-to-digital converter (A/D or ADC) shown in block form in Figure D. The ADC accepts at its input the samples of an analog signal and provides for each input sample the corresponding N-bit digital representation (according to Equation (1) at its N output terminals. Thus although the voltage at the input might be, say, 6.51 V, at each of the output terminals (say, at the ith terminal), the voltage will be either low (0 V) or high (5 V) if bi is supposed to be 0 or 1, respectively. The dual-circuit of the ADC is the digital-to-analog converter (D/A or DAC). It converts an N-bit digital input to an analog output voltage. Once the signal is in digital form, it can be processed using digital circuits. Of course, digital circuits can deal also with signals that do not have an analog origin, such as the signals that represent the various instructions of a digital computer. Since digital circuits deal exclusively with binary signals, their design is simpler than that of analog circuits. Furthermore, digital systems can be designed using relatively few different kinds of digital circuit blocks. However, a large number (e.g., hundreds of thousands or even millions) of each of these blocks are usually needed. Thus the design of digital circuits poses its own set of challenges to the designer but provides reliable and economic implementations of a great variety of signal-processing functions, many of which are not possible with analog circuits. At the present time, more and more of the signal-processing functions are being performed digitally. Examples around us abound: from the digital watch and the calculator to digital audio systems, digital cameras, and digital television. Moreover, some long-standing analog systems such as the telephone communication system are now almost entirely digital. And we should not forget the most important of all digital systems, the digital computer. The basic building blocks of digital systems are logic circuits and memory circuits. Read the full article

Ethernet Compliance Testing at Toradex
Introduction
Toradex offers robust and reliable embedded systems, which are required to work continuously in harsh environments. Ethernet is one of the most important interfaces for the Internet of Things (IoT). We will review some Ethernet standards and show you how Toradex tests for compliance with them.
After looking at the standards, we’ll describe our test configuration, test procedures, and the test results. A Colibri iMX6ULL SoM and Iris Carrier Board were used in this example, but you can use this as a model for testing custom carrier boards if that testing will be part of your verification process.
Tumblr media
Why We Use Standards and Do Compliance Testing
Ethernet designs adhere to the IEEE 802.3 standard, which defines the Physical and Data Link layer of the seven-layer Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model. Waveform characteristics are specified in the standard. Designing to this standard allows compatibility and interoperability with other devices, in all kinds of environments all over the world. Otherwise, transmission issues and data losses are likely to occur. Compliance testing ensures that the implementation meets the standard.
In addition to the waveform characteristics specified in the IEEE 802.3 standard, the University of New Hampshire InterOperability Laboratory (UNH-IOL) has provided standard conformance test procedures for those signals.
The documents can be found at these links:
https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/browse/standards/get-program/page/series?id=68
https://www.iol.unh.edu/
Ethernet Physical Layer Basics
The Ethernet standard is several thousand pages, so we’ll just cover the most important concepts and some key terminology.
Tumblr media
Figure 1 OSI Reference Model from IEEE Standard for Ethernet
Let’s start with the physical medium. Signals typically arrive through a twisted pair copper cable to an Ethernet jack with magnetics on our Carrier Board, then continue through impedance matched differential traces on the PCB to the Ethernet PHY IC. This device converts analog signals from the medium to digital signals for the processor and vice versa.
The electrical signals first encounter the Medium Dependent Interface (MDI) of the PHY, a part of the Physical layer. Different physical media have different characteristics. In accordance with the specific kind of the media, the signals are transformed and sent to the next layer of the OSI-model, the Data Link Layer. We provide 10Base-T and 100Base-TX (Fast Ethernet) on our Colibri Modules and 1000Base-T (Gigabit) on the Apalis modules. The standardized interface between the first two OSI-layers is called Media Independent Interface (MII) and is independent of the physical layer.
Tumblr media
Meanwhile, we are talking about the advanced backward-compatible Reduced Gigabit Media Independent Interface (RGMII) and the next interface for the 10 Gigabit is already named as XGMII. Reduced means that there are fewer signals needed for the same standard. The xMII’s are parallel data buses. There is a supplementary serial bus for management purpose called Management Data Input/Output (MDIO). The xMII interface ends at the Media Access Control (MAC) layer. Here the well-known MAC address is used as a unique identifier. The MAC layer can be integrated with the System on Chip (SoC), like on NXP® processors. But it could be already embedded in the same IC as the PHY, which is better known as an Ethernet Controller. The Ethernet Controller IC, in turn, is connected with the SoC through a separate interface like USB or PCIe. Note that we are not looking at higher OSI layers and protocols like ARP, NDP, IP, TCP, UDP, etc., which are organized in frames and packages, because for all these protocols the electrical characteristics on the first physical levels are the same!
For now, let’s go back to the physical layer. There are 2 main characteristics of the physical link I’d like to expand on, namely, speed and duplex mode. Our modules support speeds up to 1Gbit on Apalis Modules and 100Mbit on Colibri Modules, and both half and full duplex modes. In full duplex mode of operation, PHYs on both ends of the link can communicate with each other simultaneously. For the half duplex mode, where the PHY can’t receive and transmit data at the same time, there need to use the Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) to avoid collisions and control the data flow.
As already described, our Apalis Modules are capable of Gigabit Ethernet, but how do the communication partners know with which speed they can send the data? An-auto negotiation procedure exists, where the linking partners set the best link trough 16ms link pulses. Please be careful with auto-negotiation settings, as there is a well-known problem of the duplex mismatch, when the linking partners are configured in a fixed way. On the electrical side of the physical layer 10Base-T and 100Base-TX use two twisted pairs while 1000Base-TX uses 4. 100Base-TX is faster than 10Base-T based on the much faster frequency of 62.5 MHz instead of 10 MHz and denser signal modulation scheme (PAM-3). 1000Base-TX uses the same frequency as 100Base-TX, but transmits across 4 twisted pairs and with a higher level of modulation (PAM-5). Finally, there is an additional feature called EEE, Energy Efficient Ethernet. The aim of this standard is to save energy.

The picture below summarizes the Ethernet possibilities on the Toradex SoM approach:
Tumblr media
Automotive Ethernet
Before we continue to the Compliance Testing, I want to quickly let you know that I receive a lot of questions about 100Base-T1, better known as Automotive Ethernet. The customers want to know, if it is possible to connect Automotive Ethernet to a fast Ethernet PHY. The 100Base-T1 has a different physical layer specification to fulfill the requirements in a harsher automotive environment. It is not possible to connect it, but the MII is still the same! The solution is to connect the 100Base-T1 PHY to the Multimedia Independent Interface of the SoC directly. Consequently, a Module with an xMII on the Module Edge Connector must be selected! Of course, you have to design your Custom Carrier Board with a 100Base-T1 PHY. Here you can find the list of Toradex Modules which provide an xMII on the edge connector. Please note that this is not a Standard Toradex Interface and the pin assignment varies with each module.

Ethernet Compliance Testing for Toradex Systems
Tumblr media
Figure 2 10Base-T Test: DOV Internal MAU Normal
After this very short overview, I want to continue with the compliance testing, where we test the electrical signals in time and voltage. The electrical signals look totally different for the 10/100/1000 Mbps and have different requirements as you can see in the oscillograms.
The tests evaluate the voltage amplitudes, jitter values, rise/fall times and other signal characteristics. For each test a defined test signal must be generated by the DUT, e.g. a continuous pseudo-random signal has to be emitted. The easiest way to test the signal requirements is to define a test mask. The signals must not intersect with the mask in order to fulfill the specification. The 10Base-T tests are very often defined through a test mask, as you can see in the first figure. I want to mention some values: The Peak Differential Output Voltage must be between 2.2 V and 2.8 V. The Differential Output Voltage Harmonics must be greater than 27 dB and all Jitter values must be smaller than 22 ns. Very interesting is the twisted-pair model for 10Base-T, which must be used for some compliance tests. With the equivalent circuit based on lumped elements, it is possible to model multiple different transmission elements with just passive components. Depending on the PHY a linking partner is needed for 10Base-T compliance tests. You can download the Test Report of Colibri iMX6ULL as an example, where you can find all tests.
Tumblr media
Figure 3 Measured differential random 10Base-T signal without load
The interface characteristics for 100Base-TX are defined in table 2 based on the MLT-3 voltage signals with three levels. The data is encoded before with 4B5B algorithm, so a clock recovery out of the data stream is possible because a level transition is forced. For our test equipment, a pseudo-random test pattern (PRBS7) is enough for all the tests. However, some tests only trigger on defined patterns and measures only at that moment the specific values.

Tumblr media
Figure 4 Measured differential random signal 100Base-TX
The test criteria are defined in a similar manner for the 1000Base-T. I am not going to list them. For these tests an additional disturber in the form of an Arbitrary Waveform Generator (AWG) is needed to create the required disturbing signals with the frequency of 31.25 MHz and 20.833 MHz. In figure 5 you can see the test pattern of test mode 1 produced by the PHY. There are four different test patterns, which can be generated through PHY’s MDIO register settings. Please don’t forget that we have to perform the compliance test four times, because of the four twisted pairs.

Figure 6 Measured differential Test Mode 4 Distortion Test 1000Base-T without disturber
We have now seen some of the electrical requirements that must be fulfilled to be compliant with the interface definition. Before we have a closer look at the test equipment, I want to try and solve the most important question of this Blog: How do you generate those test signals?
Each PHY vendor has a custom method to modify the necessary register settings to enter the test modes. That is often not publicly available, and you must ask your PHY vendor. A very good example is Microchip, who has provided all information about Ethernet Compliance in one document since last year. These are the Ethernet PHYs, which we use in our modules, KSZ8041 and KSZ9031. I also want to share a document from TI with you, just as a further example. If you are looking for a new Ethernet PHY and want to do Ethernet Compliance Testing, please ask your vendor for detailed information about the register settings in advance!

http://www.ti.com/lit/an/snla239a/snla239a.pdf
Test Equipment
As depicted above, we must measure some picoseconds precisely. For that we need very good tooling. You should use an oscilloscope with a bandwidth of 1 GHz and memory of 4MS or greater. Usually you need a test fixture, which transforms the Ethernet signals from an Ethernet Jack to the oscilloscope input channels. That is why we work closely with Teledyne LeCroy. We have a great collaboration on a technical level. We use a high-end oscilloscope from the WaveMaster series with appropriate hardware and software tools. Of course, there is equipment from other vendors available like Tektronix, Rhode&Schwarz, Keysight and others.
Quotation from Mr. Hofferbert, specialist at Teledyne LeCroy:
“Teledyne LeCroy is a leading manufacturer of digital storage oscilloscopes (DSO). With modern DSOs it is possible to perform qualification measurements. Toradex uses appropriate equipment from Teledyne LeCroy to test the design of Ethernet PHYs. With the combination of our QualiPHY Software and latest oscilloscopes, a semi-automatic test has been implemented to test the physical level of the Ethernet PHYs according to the IEEE 802.3 specification. This measurement solution allows the development engineers at Toradex to test and resolve issues with signal integrity in an early development stage of their embedded systems. Toradex is very interested in using the measurement equipment as efficiently as possible. If there are any uncertainties or measurement deviation, we work together to quickly solve these issues and provide our expertise in measurement application.” Gregor Hofferbert, Teledyne LeCroy

http://cdn.teledynelecroy.com/files/manuals/qualiphyenetmanual.pdf
Conclusion
After performing a compliance test, we can create a compliance report to verify our PCB design. As you can see in the test report from Teledyne LeCroy, the Colibri iMX6ULL with Iris Carrier Board is compliant with 10Base-T and 100Base-TX standard. So, we are sure that our implementation will work with other compliant systems. We can share with confidence our PCB implementation of the Ethernet Interface with our customers. You can find the Carrier Board Design Guides here: https://developer.toradex.com/carrier-board-design
We also share our Carrier Boards Designs as Altium Designer projects for free with our customers. We provide a lot of help through our community channel as well: https://www.toradex.com/community
We started to implement and provide our testing SW in our latest BSP. We adopt the existing drivers to be easily run with our modules to perform Compliance Tests. But again be careful, for each PHY you need different SW techniques to get the test pattern. There is no simple handbook. For example: https://git.toradex.com/cgit/linux-toradex.git/commit/?h=tegra-next&id=13bd0f089ac6babeb7248fe3db4b9c19233cce3c
But issues can occur with wrong routing, bad ground layout, or inaccurate crystal circuit design. It also depends on the testing environment. Ground loops and noisy or underpowered power supplies can cause measuring errors. It is important to follow the design guides of the PHY vendors. I like the troubleshooting document provided by Intel, that you can use for the first debug consultation. There is a basic overview of failures and possible sources. Designs with too long traces, low quality magnetics or improper use of the measurement equipment can always be the source of failing the compliance test. But there are also specific errors which can be put in a strong correlation. E.g. wrong amplitude values are often caused by wrongly assembled bias resistors or issues with the centre tap circuits. Whereas too high Jitter values are due to crystal issues, impedance mismatch or bad power supply. In general, your Ethernet PHY vendor should be able to help you, probably even with a schematic or layout review.

In this blog, I gave you some insights to one of the many verifications Toradex does to achieve such high-quality products. Internal testing by us and your adherence to our design guides reduces your risk to a minimum. For the highest quality, you can do your verification with your own customized carrier board, and that you follow the system engineering approach (as documented by NASA, for instance) which recommends testing in early stages to reduce risk and cost. I hope I gave you plenty of information to get started. If you need more information feel free to reach out.
