RFFE Protocol Analyzer and Exerciser

RFFE Protocol Analyzer (PGY-RFFE-EX-PD) is the Protocol Analyzer with multiple features to capture and debug communication between the host and design under test. The RF Front-end control interface (RFFE) Serial bus interface is emerging as a chosen for controlling RF frond-end devices. There is a variety of front-end devices such as Power Amplifiers (PA), Low-Nose Amplifiers (LNA), filters, switches, power management modules, and antenna tuners. It is widely used in mobile devices.

PGY-RFFE-EX-PD is the leading instrument that enables the design and test engineers to test the RFFE interface for its specifications by configuring PGY-RFFE-EX-PD as master/slave, generating RFFE traffic with error injection capability, amplitude variation, and decoding RFFE Protocol decode packets.
