DESIGN
G.1 OVERVIEW
This section discusses how the design will be verified to satisfy all the performance
specifications before the prototype is created.
To verify that the module is 100% compatible and fully plug and play, it is necessary to
ensure that the PC does not have to change the packet’s destination IP address in order to
use our module to send the packet instead of using the original cable. Also, when receiving a
packet from the remote end, the source IP address should not change so that the local PC
will think that the packet comes from the remote PC directly. The modules should be
completely invisible to the host PCs.
The transmission rate of the transceiver and the processing speed of the processor on
the evaluation board limit the transmission rate of the design. Each constraint must be
verified independently. Both the evaluation board and the transceiver should be capable of
operating at 10Mps in order to achieve an overall transmission rate of 10Mps for the adapter.
However, as discussed in the functional requirement, the transceiver selected for this project
has a maximum transmission rate of 50kbps due to the limited budget. We first need to
verify that the evaluation board can operate at a rate of 10Mps, regardless of the transceiver
used. We also have to verify that the transceiver can operate at a rate of 50kbps.
