Abstract :
As network data rate increases rapidly, high-speed signaling circuits for server communication pose many design challenges due to various system requirements using different interconnect mediums. This paper discusses main problems and solutions of high-speed circuits for server interconnect. Then, it presents a high-speed circuit implementation for such interconnect using 90nm CMOS technology that achieved data rate at 6.25 Gbps in a backplane environment.
