From June 11–12 in Santa Clara, California, Anritsu Company will showcase state-of-the-art high-speed signal integrity solutions at the PCI-SIG Developers Conference. Together with Synopsys, Teledyne LeCroy, CIG, and Tektronix, Anritsu will showcase live PCI-Express 6.0 and 7.0 demonstrations of the industry-leading MP1900A BERT.
World’s First PCI-Express 6.0 Link Training over Optics
Using the Anritsu MP1900A BERT, Synopsys PCIe 6.x PHY and Controller IP, Tektronix DPO70000 Real Time Oscilloscope, and CIG OSFP LPO optical module, Anritsu is collaborating with Synopsys, Tektronix, and CIG to showcase the first PCIe 6.0 optical connection link training in history.
The main obstacles for AI workloads in data centers are successfully addressed by PCIe over optical networks, which offer greater bandwidth, longer coverage, and greater energy efficiency. Anritsu’s leadership in next-generation optical PCIe is demonstrated in this joint demonstration.
PCI-Express® 7.0 Differential Skew Evaluation
In collaboration with Teledyne LeCroy, Anritsu will present a solution for evaluating the effect of differential skew in PCIe 7.0.
PCIe 7.0 uses PAM4 signaling, which reduces eye height by more than three times compared to NRZ. Combined with the speed increase from 32.0 Gbaud in PCIe 6.0 to 64.0 Gbaud, this results in a smaller unit interval (UI) that is significantly more sensitive to skew.
In high-speed environments, signals traversing an ISI channel may exhibit a dip in the fundamental frequency due to skew.
While most BERTs lack built-in skew evaluation functions, Anritsu addresses this by using two MP1900A MU196020A PAM4 PPG units with the Channel Sync function to inject P-N skew and Teledyne LeCroy’s WaveMaster 8650HD 65 GHz oscilloscope for advanced analysis.
