“Does this mean the channel
will meet all the scope at the same time ? “ I think the simple
answer is YES. I think there is only one channel spec. “2) As for the channel model, I
think the channel specifications from TP1 to TP5 is important,
especially for 10G serial application. for 1G per lane and 3.125G X
4 lanes application, maybe we can ignore the influence caused
by the component from TP4 to TP5 (two line card vias and a compactor),
since before 3G Hz, the via's influence is limited, however,
for 10G serial application, especially for NRZ coding, line card vias also
play a great role for the channel performance. According to our simulation
result, for the via routing in layer 2 (line card is about 2.5mm thick), beyond
5 GHz, the insertion loss of the via drop's sharply. We need define
specifications from TP1 to TP5, instead of the specification form TP1 to
TP4. ” I think this
is a good point. We had much discussion regarding this. The whole idea is that
TP4 to TP5 was supposed to be owned by the chip. As a chip vendor, we don’t
like this. I suggested that if TP4 to TP5 was not transparent (+/-?), then
it needs to go into the TP1 to TP4 budget. In my opinion the issues was not
adequately resolved. Richard

[mailto:owner-stds-802-3-blade@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG] On Behalf Of Jia Gongxian Hi all IEEE P802.3ap Task Force Members, I have been concerned for IEEEE 802.3 ap Task Force for a
long time, and have read through all the relevant materials available from
the website up to now. I do hope I have a chance to discuss with
all members about the project as a system backplane designer, to
share what I think about it. Since it is inconvenient for us to take part
in the face to face meeting and teleconference, I hope I can use the
"e-mail reflector" as a platform to share with you all. The following is what I want to know and what I care about
most: 1) From the object objective, the
project will cover 1 G per lane, 3.125 GbpsX4 lanes and 10Gbps per lane.
Does this mean the channel will meet all the scope at the same
time ? For the legacy backplane used for around 1 Gpbs , most
of them is made of common FR4 and general connector,such as 2mm connector
without shield pin. I think it is very hard to upgrade to serial 10 Gbps,
at most up to 3.125 Gbps, economically. For the legacy backplane used for around 3.125Gbps per
channel, we still use common FR4, not improved FR4, and apply common
manufacturing technology. For the NRZ coding 10Gbps application, if we use this
kind for backplane, I think this is very hard to realize. Thus I think for
serial 10G backplane, we may using According to our simulation and measurement results,
the insertion loss of channel up to 3 GHz or so, is mainly effected by
attenuation of copper loss and dielectric, impedance discontinuity caused
by trace and connector, beyond 3 GHz, the via stub play a more and
more important role, firstly, backplane via stub, secondly, line card stub.
Given we want each layer in PCB
can be routed high speed signals,for NRZ coding 5/6 G
application, backplane via maybe need be backdirlled, for NRZ
coding 10 G application, line card via maybe backdrilled also. Does this project plan to using common PCB technology to
make the backplane and linecard ? or using backdirlling and other technologies
to reduce the via stub ? 2) As for the channel model, I think the channel
specifications from TP1 to TP5 is important, especially for 10G serial
application. for 1G per lane and 3.125G X 4 lanes
application, maybe we can ignore the influence caused by the
component from TP4 to TP5 (two line card vias and a compactor), since
before 3G Hz, the via's influence is limited, however, for
10G serial application, especially for NRZ coding, line card vias also
play a great role for the channel performance. According to our simulation
result, for the via routing in layer 2 (line card is about 2.5mm thick), beyond
5 GHz, the insertion loss of the via drop's sharply. We need define
specifications from TP1 to TP5, instead of the specification form TP1 to
TP4. 3) As for the test sample, I think we should define some
specifications to guide how to design. The test samples
must actually reflect the real product design, or else, the
measurement result and conclusion according to the result is
meaningless. For example, different types of test launches we used
will greatly influence our test result. I think the rules is, the design will reflect
the practical design, not just for test. For instance, we can use
optimized SMT sma and with a PTH (plated through hole) with 8/10 mil
diameter to reflect the BGA via in practice. 4) As for the channel crosstalk, some
member have mentioned using power sum to define the spec, however, the
project is aim at high speed digital application, all the standards are defined
as voltage in practice, such as eye height, imput sensitivity, ect.
We usually using voltage sum to calculate the worst case of crosstalk, not
power sum. 5)As for the Serdes, It's better to integrated ac
compactor into Serdes, which will significantly improve the channels
performance, for we can reduce 2 line card vias and a compactor in
linecard. Serdes for 10G serial applications must have adaptive
equalization and BIST function. Any comments will be welcomed. Thanks and Best regards. Jia
