Re: [BP] Interference tolerance test channels



Title: Message

Charles

 

Given the number of changes we are proposing without too much data analysis, it would be strongly recommended that we have this meeting.

guys,

   Sorry about taking most of the day off ;-).

    A few comments on the discussion:

     *   The channels i submitted:  ITTC23 and ITTC20 are essentially measured data.  
          I cannot just arbitrarily adjust up or down the attenuation in various ranges, but
          they will have a real relationship between phase and gain.
      *  ITTC23 and ITTC20 both fit a vertically scaled version of Amax pretty well.
          The main difference is that the f^2 term is a bit low but the difference is small.
      *  These channels represent a possible test channel, not a real interconnet.  A
           real interconnect will have real connectors etc and hence will have more ripple.
           We are supposed to increase the EIT level to account for the difference although
           so far we have been remiss in this area.
      *   My understanding is that we are going to lean on all areas, Tx, Thru channel,
           Xtalk, and Rx.  We are not going to just drop thru attenuation and call it quits.
      *   If i get more than 3 requests and no objections, i will schedule a phone meeting
           for Thursday January 19, noon MST.  I am supposed to give a one week notice so any
           objections will be enough to prevent the meeting.

Goergen,

You really can’t do that if you are trying to move forward robbing from both sides of the problem to come up with the overall solution.

John,

 

We decided at the first pass to decouple crosstalk from attenuation and just look at attenuation. No doubth taking crosstalk into account will make things much worse (with any industry acceptable signal density). We could get it to work if if we made the signals sparse, but that's no good as fas as anyone is realistically concerned.

Steve,

But also realize that the general line also has built in margin for it to account for temperature, environmental, and  material variation as well.  The line as currently proposed has to be examined to look at from several aspects.  For example, the Molex channels are hugging the new proposed 23 dB line.  5” are on the daughtercard and 35” are on the backplane, which uses a typical 7 mil line.  So we are saying that to meet the skin effect at the lower frequencies we need a 7 mil wide line?  I think that is too far.  Look at the attached figure – 7 mil wide traces hug that line.  I think we have moved it too far upward.

 

I don’t see any efforts yet on reducing the problem via the crosstalk aspect of the problem.  Has that been abandoned?  I don’t think all of the burden at this time should be shifted to the channel, but should also be shared with the total allowable crosstalk.  Many of the channels did have margin.  We should look to striking a balance between the two.

 

John

            John, all:

 

            But does a line made with the squared and cubed terms create a physically realizable channel?

 

            In the real channel I think there may be only two variables to play with:  skin effect and dielectric

absorption.  If we base simulations on something other than this, then I think bad things can happen like

non-causal effects.

Guys,

Goergen asked the magic question.  Is it possible?  Yes it is.  We have a squared and cubed term to play with.  I am hoping Joel has some suggestions as well.  I just had a chance to do a quick scan and saw this.  I will be working on this stuff tonight

Rich,

 

I see now what you refer too. I am not sure how you physically relaize a channel you are suggesting, keep low freq the same and come up at 5 GHz? Any physical channel should result in a tilted line?

The line didn’t only tilt. It also shifted. John D looked at a few channels as I attached. If we shift, it’s got an impact for KX and KX4.

The new channel appears to be inline with what we stated - a tilt of the line from DC to about a 3dB drop at 5GHz.  Why do you feel the lower frequencies need to stay fixed?


Thanks,        Joe

Hi Charles,
DC and low freq's went down way to much! Can you create a model with the
same losses at say 1GHz or so and 2 dB less at 5GHz? I thought that's
what we agreed.

guys,

    I propose that we use the model ITTC_23.s4p for reduced attenuation
EIT modeling.  If it really will not work, ITTC_20.s4p is available as a
bail out channel.  If it looks too easy, let me know and i will step it
up just
a tad.

    The numbers refer to the fitted attenuation at 5.15...GHz.
