Abstract

This presentation covers the measurement and simulation techniques for the analysis of 2.5-4.8 Gb/s systems. Comparison of measurements to theoretical calculations for transmission lines in a laminate material system are also shown. This includes the effects of vias, skin loss and dielectric loss. An overview of the current serializer-deserializer (SerDes) technology is given, with emphasis on equalization techniques and benefits. Finally, a demonstration of an existing backplane system is compared to the simulation results
