What to Expect
Today several standard bodies are developing next-generation high-speed
links with the desire to achieve lower bit error rates (BER). These
factors are driving optimization of all components (not just the
ICs) in the system. At the root of this optimization is "signal
integrity" which allows for “what ifs" and/or drives
trade-offs.
This webinar will:
- Provide an update on the current 6G standard bodies activities
- Discuss the major factors contributing to signal integrity
- Provide
examples on how to optimize such tasks as Vias in the PCB design
to avoid costly debug and re-spins when system BER objectives
are not met
- Discuss system considerations for NRZ and 4PAM signaling selection
