[0023] The present disclosure will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments. It can be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the related application, and not to limit the application. In addition, it should be noted that, for the sake of description, only the parts related to the application are shown in the drawings.

[0026] In the description of the present disclosure, it should be noted that the embodiments and the features in the embodiments in the present disclosure can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0027] The SerDes signal quality adjustment problem involves a large number of parameters and is easily affected by environmental factors, and is essentially an NP-hard problem. It is not practical to perform a "brute force" search of the multi-dimensional solution space, and it is usually converted into a problem of finding a better solution in a multi-dimensional space. Generally, a set of initial parameters can be set first, and then a certain amount of data is transmitted to calculate the eye diagram quality or bit error rate, so as to measure the current link quality to evaluate the pros and cons of the current parameter set, and then iteratively adjust the parameter set and repeatedly the above process until a set of relatively optimal parameters is obtained. It is not difficult to find that the above method often means that a large amount of trial and error needs to be invested, and it cannot be guaranteed to obtain a satisfactory result, and a universally applicable and efficient and reliable intelligent optimization algorithm is difficult to implement; in addition, when the temperature, humidity and connection distance and other factors change, it is very likely that the adjustment and selection of parameters need to be re-performed, thereby further amplifying the disadvantages of high complexity, low efficiency and poor operability.

[0028] In order to provide a SerDes parameter adjustment scheme that can quickly iterate and find a SerDes parameter adjustment scheme suitable for the system and environment with a low bit error rate, to help solve the problem of difficult coordination of signal integrity in high-speed serial channels, SerDes parameter adjustment difficulties, solve the reliability problem of SerDes and its integrated system basic physical channel, and be able to better cope with temperature and humidity and other environmental factor change scenarios, reduce complexity, improve efficiency, and improve operability, the present disclosure proposes a SerDes parameter adjustment system and a SerDes signal quality adjustment method.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 1 is a structural schematic diagram of a SerDes parameter adjustment system 10 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 1 , the SerDes parameter adjustment system 10 of the embodiment of the present disclosure comprises an adjustment device 11, a cooperative component 12 and a target component 13; wherein the cooperative component 12 and the target component 13 are connected through a physical link, and the adjustment device 11 and the cooperative component 12 are in communication connection.

[0030] The embodiment of the present disclosure adopts a variety of component cooperative modes to realize SerDes parameter adjustment optimization, the purpose of which is to greatly reduce the complexity of the adjustment process and effectively reduce the time overhead and software and hardware costs.

[0031] Among them, the function of the substrate of each component is as follows:

[0032] 1) Basic function of the adjustment device 11: control the overall process of SerDes parameter adjustment, control the state of the cooperative component 12, send instructions to the cooperative component 12, and read back the state information of the cooperative component 12. Responsible for the exception handling of the overall process, it is the control part of the system, which can be operated by the user.

[0033] 2) The basic function of the coordination component 12: receiving the command sent by the regulation device 11, sending the instruction to the target component, reading back the status information of the target component 13, judging the next instruction to be sent to the target component 13, returning the status information to the regulation device 11, etc.

[0034] 3) The basic function of the target component 13: receiving the instruction sent by the coordination component 12, responding to the received instruction, adjusting the corresponding SerDes parameter, returning the status of the SerDes parameter adjustment to the coordination component 12.

[0039] 3) Wait ACK1 state for waiting for the confirmation of the command;

[0040] 4) Wait Clear command state for waiting to clear the command;

[0041] 5) Wait ACK2 state for waiting for the confirmation of the clearing of the command;

[0042] 6) Request state.

[0043] Specifically, the transition rules between the states are as follows:

[0044] 1) After the initialization of the coordination component 12 and the target component 13, wait to send the command.

[0045] 2) After the coordination component 12 sends the instruction to the target component 13, wait for the confirmation signal (ACK1) of the target component 13.

[0046] 3) After the coordination component 12 receives the returned confirmation signal (ACK1), clear the previously sent instruction.

[0047] 4) If the coordination component 12 does not receive the confirmation signal (ACK1), return to the initialization state, and the regulation device 11 is responsible for handling the exception.

[0048] 5) After the coordination component 12 clears the instruction, wait for the confirmation signal (ACK2) of the cleared instruction of the target component 13.

[0049] 6) After the cooperative component 12 receives the confirmation clear instruction signal (ACK2), it sends a request to the target component 13 to confirm whether the instruction needs to be sent again or the adjustment is successful.
