As with many conferences, DesignCon authors competence post their possess papers on their companies, universities, or personal web sites. Agilent Technologies, unite of DesignCon Community, has done several papers and educational slides authored or co-authored by Agilent engineers accessible for download. You can find them in a information resources section, on a right side of any DesignCon Community page. (You need to register during DesignCon Community to download a papers.) Here’s what you’ll find:
Tips and Advanced Techniques for Characterizing a 28 Gbit/s Transceiver. At 28 Gbit/s, any interconnect between a conductor and a receiver affects vigilance integrity. This paper explains how to magnitude and impersonate a delivery channel’s delivery lines, vias, IC packages, and connectors to best perspective what’s function to your signals.
Slides: DesignCon 2013: Challenges With Jitter, 3-hour tutorial takes we by a exam issues surrounding sequence links starting during 10 Gbit/s. The slides cover jitter measurements on transmitters and channels, so we can see what a receiver sees. The paper also covers time recovery, jitter spectrum analysis, oscilloscopes, and noise.
DesignCon 2013 Paper: Effects of Temperature and Relative Humidity in Transmission Systems Using Differential Signaling. Every time serial-data rates increase, new issues arise that were immaterial during reduce speeds. This paper looks during how heat and steam impact differential signals. The authors experimented regulating a Samtec “Golden Standard” anxiety microstrip. The authors totalled differential S-parameters, near-end crosstalk, and far-end crosstalk with a vector-network analyzer. As we competence expect, heat and steam make a difference. Download a paper to find out how.
Slides: DesignCon 2013: Making DDR4 Work for You, 3-hour tutorial explains how to make a transition from DDR3 to DDR4 in mechanism memory systems. In going from 2133 Mbit/s to 3200 Mbit/s, a window for bit timing shrinks by 34 percent. That creates jitter an even bigger problem to solve to keep bit-error rate down. DDR4 also reduces voltage rails from 1.5 V to 1.2 V, creation energy firmness a incomparable writer to bit errors. This display discusses pattern rules, electrical length, serpentine routing, facade margins, and testing.
DesignCon 2013 Paper: Innovative Defense Techniques for Damping Digital to RF Crosstalk covers how today’s high-speed digital signals and RF signals can meddle with any other. You’ll learn about how to use make-believe to get an thought of probable EMI issues before building a prototype. You’ll learn how receiver pattern and helmet can impact crosstalk in a unstable device such as a phone or inscription computer.
DesignCon 2013 Paper: End-to-End Link Analysis and Optimization with Mid-channel Redrivers AMI Models, created by engineers from Maxim Integrated and Agilent, explains how to indication a delivery channel and magnitude the characteristics. The redriver used here is a MAX3997, that operates during speeds adult to 10.7 Gbit/s. The paper compares simulations to totalled results.
