State-of-the-art pulse response analysis such as this, provides valuable insight into the behavior of the channel and the effective use of CTLE, FFE, and DFE equalization techniques, in order to mitigate crosstalk, attenuation and return loss.<br /><br />Specific topics to be covered include: optimization, BER, PAM-4, IBIS-AMI, S-parameters, causality, passivity, EQ, DFE, FFE, CTLE, and the latest in pulse response analysis and optimization. <br /> </li>

Multigigabit channels that include multi-layer laminate or printed circuit board structures require a fixture to go from the coaxial connections of the measuring instrument to the planar transmission line structures on a PCB. This fixture is not calibrated out by the coaxial calibration of the instrument and is often neglected in the simulation. This video will go through a four-step process to show how to de-embed the fixture from the measurement to validate the PCB channel model, then how to embed the fixture with the model to do a direct compare of simulation to full-path measurement both in the frequency domain and time domain. The end result is demonstrated using a 32Gb/s example of simulation to measurement correlation.</li>
