Tasks and distribution of work
- Our objective - resolve as many details as possible by/before
comment deadline Jan 7th, 05
- Waveform capture method
- Pattern definition
- ACTIONS - John and Tom to work on pattern definition. Should
include lab and sim work. Greg and Pavel to consider needs for timing of
pattern key.
- John will send out presentation to summarize background, process, and
properties of candidate 384 bit test patterns. Discuss in 12/16 call.
- Tom will attempt some waveform capture and analysis with this pattern
and compare to others. Goal to have done by 12/16 call. Purpose is to
determine if pattern is adequate or what else is needed.
- Greg and Pavel to work more on pattern key timing. Report on
12/16 call.
- Trigger block
- ACTIONS - Pavel to draft some words, review by Greg
and Lew.
- Some work has been done, but not yet ready for discussion. Please
attempt a complete proposal (for comment) by 12/16 call.
- Waveforms
- ACTIONS - Tom to provide waveform acquisition details to
others. All to capture waveforms and distribute for penalty
analysis.
- Acquisition details complete.
- Finisar has provided several waveforms with a good range of
characteristics.
- Intel has also sent some waveforms.
- Call for more waveforms from other suppliers.
- EDC simulation
- ACTIONS - Tom to document definitions, references,
architecture, and other basic approach and assumptions. Tom to check with
ClariPhy on timing for sharing/review of code.
- ClariPhy will put together an algorithmic description including
definitions, architecture, and flow by early January.
- It was asked if ClariPhy could make its code available for review
before the meeting. Present code is buried in larger programs and includes
proprietary content. Tom to continue internal discussions about supporting
this request.
- Noise and jitter control (review of attachment sent in 12/1 TL email,
sent 21:44)
- ACTIONS - Pavel to propose and justify pk-pk
jitter metric. Pavel and Greg to propose best modes for scope and pattern.
Not discussed, but the trigger recovery block for this test also needs
description - can the same team as above (Greg, Pavel, Lew) please tackle
this one too?
- Some discussion outside of call, but Pavel and Greg will propose an
approach on 12/16 call.
- Statistical quality method (as introduced in dawe_1_1104)
- All HW quality method
Next call, same coordinates
In summary, plan to report progress and proposals on actions on the
12/16 call. Please let me know in advance of any agenda items.
Thanks!
