In the high-speed backplane and interconnect, the intra-lane skew of the differential signal (P/N) becomes one of the major factors to reduce the eye margin. Because of the small phase margin of PAM4 signal, it has a huge impact to cause the errors in the data transmission. In this webinar hosted by the Optical Communications Technical Group, Hiroshi Goto will quantify the intra-lane skew versus BER (Bit Error Rate) at 32Gbaud PAM4 signal (PCIe 6.0) with the repeatable skew control. Goto’s presentation will show a novel and reliable method for introducing granular intra-pair skew into the channel and measuring the impact of BER.

What You Will Learn:

  • How to quantify the intra-lane skew versus BER (Bit Error Rate) at 32Gbaud PAM4 signal (PCIe 6.0) with Anritsu’s test solution
  • A novel method for introducing granular intra-pair skew into the channel

Who Should Attend:

  • Chip, board, and systems design engineers
